Week 6 : Tutorial

Today’s tutorial was pretty much the same as last week, with everyone grouping together to create a Niki entry. Had fun getting into a new group and we had a great idea to start a “fake” Facebook page for Robert Scoble, the most well renown technology-related online blogger.

Robert Scoble talking about AdStage.

Having a lot of fun with these niki entries, I find the most interesting aspect that I like about the assignment is that we can choose how to deliver our Niki messages. This promotes creativity and also a collaborative work space practice. It makes things more engaging and also provides us with the common practice of researching information thoroughly.

Week 3: Tutorial

This week, we were introduced to Niki and basically have to work in creating an entry as per our assessment in this course. A Niki, is very much like a Wiki, in the sense that we have to create a record of information of things and places as well as people. Entries are created by students, for the use of students. Attaching credible links and information, these Nikis will prove to be reliable.
I find this particular project highly interesting as we are not merely completing an assignment, but we are making a contribution to future generations. On some level, we will be a part of history and have contributed in at least a small, but still significant way, to the education of mankind. Looking forward to getting started on this assessment.
On a random note, blogging from a phone is tough. Everything is so tiny and it’s so hard to get organised. But, nonetheless, with a lot more time and effort, it is completely mobile, and a great tool for on-the-go blogging.
