Hey World,

Anna interviewed me Friday for Merrolee’s research. Realized what a techno girl I am becoming when I had the chance to reflect on things.  Have mixed feelings about use of technology – think people can get in big trouble with some of the instant messenging as you can be whoever and whatever you want.  Blogging, social bookmarking, Wiki, Bloglines, Google scholar, etc. – all those things seem pretty OK for the most part to learn about EVERYTHING out there from occupational therapy to labradors to recipes……

 Then……..as I won’t be in class Monday as away for work – Merrolee showed me all about Wiki with a short video on YOUTUBE. Using a WIKI space is so much more efficient than emailing back and forth.  Neat stuff. Even thought I could take pics or video of stuff about the computer and send it to my mum – she’ll be able to watch it over and over and carry out the simple tasks on the computer I know she can do but she says she cannot!

 I also posted on Wiki   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occupational_therapy about pediatric OT practice in New Zealand. Used son of citation http://citationmachine.net/index.php?callstyle=2&all which is an unreal website that puts things in APA format FOR YOU. What a nightmare that was for me at Uni. Hooray.

 Ok – off to prepare for the week.

 Cheers,

Jillian :)
