First post

The video seemed to make a lot of sense and be very basic as far as all of us being life long learners. When it comes to technology I get cold feet and feel "dumb" so I need to address Habit 4 and have confidence in myself as an effective competent learner, which I have always been. Number 7 1/2 is also relevant because I don't feel I have time to "play" at work when there are so many other things pending. I do know that this is how kids learn so I am trying to do better at "playing" with the computer. I also feel that often times there are just not enough instructions. I was able to create a blog and watch and comment on the video but then I found no information on how to post my comments. I spent lots of time with trial and error that would have not been necessary if I had instructions on how to do that or did I miss that part? This is a test to see if this trial was successful. I did solicit the help of a friend but she was also unclear.
