Hello classmates
My name is Ritchie Mayes, and I am delighted to be
participating in this course with everyone. My overarching goal to achieve in
this term, learn how to use technology effectively. Gain an understanding of
how to use the different tools in asynchronous and distance education
environments. That means, understanding how the technology work to enhance
learning. Locating and using technology to design and implement content.
Assessing and implementing best approaches and practices to meet
student-learning outcomes. The next goal is to draw upon the teaching
experiences of classmates. During my interaction in the Walden learning
environment, I have come to appreciate the unique opportunity afforded by
collaborating with experienced faculty in the program. The last goal, acquiring
the tools that resonate in demonstrated learning. I want to be able to instruct
students via distance learning. More importantly, help students achieve their
goals in a non-traditional setting.
