How do you define courseware? Give a brief example or two of experiences you have had with courseware. How about learning objects?
Courseware is instructors and course developers create to deliver their instructional content electronically. It could be in a CD-ROM or online form. One of my experiences I have had with courseware was creating a series of material for my Microsoft Office Suite. It consists of PowerPoint demos, hands-on exercises and quizzes. Learning objects are reusable, accessible learning materials.
How might they relate (or not) to your career?
This is my career. I provide technical support in our training department. And at the same time, I'm the one, if any, who create intensive instructional and training materials.
What is your initial reaction to blogs and your impressions on what are the unique characteristics/affordances of blogs that can be used to support learning?
Cool! Everyone could use a blog to post and share their lives, personal interests on here. It could be viewed as public diary for some people. In week 1 I learned we could also form an academic community where people with similar professional or interests share their learning and work experience. We may acutally learn something new and get inspired each day by visiting someone else's work and information.
