Week 1: Accessing and Organsing Knowledge – Introductory Workshop

During this session we introduced to the EUC Website where we logged onto “SIMO” and checked our enrolment details, tutorial notes and lectures that were posted.
Throughout the three hour session we were shown how to send and receive emails, use the ECU Blackboard and basically shown how to navigate around the ECU Website. One thing that I found important was the ECU Blackboad. This is a link which enables students to view all our units that we enrolled in showing us the tutorials for the full thirteen weeks, with added notes, our student emails and has access to the links for the ECU Library, ECU Home Page, added student information and much more.
Our tasks for the lesson were to set up our own web blog at www.blogger.com , create a template for our blogg entries , set up a image storage account on www.imageshack.us, produce a screen capture and use Microsoft paint to edit the image and save it as a JPG.
