Since I forgot to post last night, these are back to back. Today I took note of a list of recommended reading (books) from the professor. I even found one, Virtual Community, on Amazon and sent it to my Kindle (thanks Steve!!!). I was told this was a 'beach book', so I am looking forward to the 'beach'. We looked at Second Life, a virtual reality access point, and I think that this has potential to do a lot of negative things for people. I liked the idea of ministry through it. I had a defining personal moment when watching the demo on Second Life. I have the tendency to jump into technology and ignore other things (like my actual assignments) that need done. At some point, I already made the decision to not create an account and 'look around'. This is momentous because I have already 'signed up' for many things in my life that I have responsibilities for and discovering Second Life would have been an easy diversion from all those responsibilities. Being here are Liberty gives me more focus on the goal posts.
Tonight, I need to work on my Web quest, finish my integrated lesson plan, and practice my piece of the group presentation. Thanks to the mini coffee maker, which made pretty good coffee considering its limitations, I am determined to do these items on my list.
