Cooperation, Collaboration & Communication

I really enjoyed today’s class of Certificate IV in Interactive Digital media which was focused on project for CDU Exhibition 2010 this morning 21/7/2010.There were lots of information to share and new things to know about. Among 5 main Search engines (YAHOO, GOOGLE, AOL, BING, ASK) I was only familiar with only two of the kind Yahoo & Google which I use in regular basis. But to analyse and get proper source of information alternative search engine information revealed during the class was much effective.

There was a good participation of students in the class which was divided into different groups to develop concept and creative idea to make Exhibition successful. Our team myself, Aja & Catherine were advised to develop Sponsor’s prospective for the Exhibition. All upcoming ideas from other teams will be collaborated in following classes and we will reach our goal for sure.

Another exiting part of today’s class was creating BLOG. I never had blog before and I am passive user of social network but now I have my own blog account in www.blogger.com and will be awaiting information, cooperation from fellow students & teachers to upgrade my knowledge by means of communication.
