Other than that I found this week to be intresting more research for my paper thought I would take it easy this week feeling very tired and weak so I plan to just post my week 10 part b please leave me some feedback

I choose to use Google scholar as my search of choice since I have always used it and feel very comfortable with the results I have had. I do believe that the search engine is very valuable to anyone writing a research paper.

Wikis, blogs and podcasts: a new generation of Web-based tools for virtual collaborative clinical practice and education

We have witnessed a rapid increase in the use of Web-based ‘collaborationware’ in recent years. These Web 2.0 applications, particularly wikis, blogs and podcasts, have been increasingly adopted by many online health-related professional and educational services. Because of their ease of use and rapidity of deployment, they offer the opportunity for powerful information sharing and ease of collaboration. Wikis are Web sites that can be edited by anyone who has access to them. The word ‘blog’ is a contraction of ‘Web Log’ – an online Web journal that can offer a resource rich multimedia environment. Podcasts are repositories of audio and video materials that can be “pushed” to subscribers, even without user intervention. These audio and video files can be downloaded to portable media players that can be taken anywhere, providing the potential for “anytime, anywhere” learning experiences (mobile learning).

The Journal of Education for Business

 

Issue:  Volume 80, Number 6 / July-August 2005

 

Pages:  327 – 332

Abstract:

One of the newest Internet applications—the Weblog, or blog—is rapidly increasing in number as well as expanding in use. Blogs are used in various segments of society, including the business and educational worlds. They are a perfect fit for use in written business communication courses because of the ease with which writing examples illustrating various components of business messages can be made easily and readily accessible on the Internet. These writing examples can be used in a variety of ways to help students improve their writing skills.

4) Blogs: A Natural in Business Communication Courses

Abstract; SINCE 1999, the blog has become a pervasive communication and information-sharing Internet-based tool in certain segments of our society. Within education, it is becoming much more widely used and will continue to expand rapidly as instructors learn about its adaptability for the classroom. Not only will an ever-increasing number of individuals likely use blogs in the instructional process, but also the manner in which they use them to augment the instructional process will rapidly expand.

week 6

October 4, 2009

What a week! My wife is in Flordia, which also means I’m home with the boys and that is no easy task. Its way past my bed time but I can not sleep I’m worried about money so I figured I’d get some school work done and watch some hockey since the season just started so far today I’ve watched five games.

I liked the readings from this week, there was no textbook readings required I really dislike that book and no I do not know why. I’m sorry I did not figure our the skycap thing I went to the webpage but the only thing I kept running into required payment and right now I could not spare a nickle.

well see you next week same Bat channel I hope a different Bat time. Oh and p.s I missed the pistol permit course again and my FBI background is due again more money for nothing.

week 4 / 5

September 28, 2009

Well the last couple of weeks have been a mess for me personally and I really do not know were to go from there because this a blog and not a book but as far as school I really feel as though the work I’m reading is way over written I’m a firm believer in keeping it simple but thats why I’m in school, to learn so anyway I’m still learning I guess you’ll have to check back later for a update

week 3

September 10, 2009

Well this semester is flying, week three already. Its been a rough week Monday was a holiday and the online suny sln system took a dump yesterday all day. I was able to play with Facebook though.

This week the reading wasn’t dry it was thought invoking to say the least. I hope to get ahead this Monday my next day off any way talk to you soon.

Week 2

August 31, 2009

Well its Monday my day off well not really its more of a homework day. I completed the work for week 1 and 2 in Comm418, so far so good I believe, but my minds on so much right now I’m not sure if anything I write makes sence to anyone including myself. Right now I’m thinking about moving to Florida, what to make for dinner, cleaning the house, playing xbox, finding the heating pad and of course my money issues or lack there of money for my issues but one day and one issue at a time I guess.

Hello

August 31, 2009

My name is Steven Butler I’m a husband and father to three young boys I currently work in corporate loss prevention. I ‘m working to finish my degree in general education from SunyIt my goal is to move to Florida and either teach high school history or further my career law enforcement.
I’m not sure what to write for my experiences with digital communications, I like anyone else use cell phone, the internet, and enjoy as much X boX360 online as possible. I also spend a lot of time on www.facebook.com/
As far as my seminar paper I really don’t have any ideas yet but would love to create a hockey blog and maybe write about the creation and use and feedback of my blog.
Honestly my main objectives for this course are to learn something new or expand what I already know and walk away with a good grade.
