Week 1 - Introduction

Hello and welcome to my blog for Educational Technology 532 - Distance Learning and Networking.

My name Paula Carol Broderick and I am a graduate student at Central Connecticut State University (CCSU) in New Britain CT. I have degrees in Human Services/Family Violence Intervention and Communication/Public Relations and Promotions. I am also a Reiki Master & Teacher and look forward to continuing my work in the field of non-violence through today's and tomorrow's technologies.

I'm very excited about the learning opportunities that EDT 532 offers, especially the opportunity of creating a curriculum of 10+ modules to be delivered via the Moodle Learning Platform. I have numerous ideas on what topic to focus on and so far the biggest challenge has been to pick just one.
My desire is to produce a series of instruction on mantra but I need to figure out how to evaluate the effectiveness of the teachings since the focus is primarily an audio one.

Our homework includes watching numerous Moodle tutorials to help me better understand what a Moodle can and can't do functionally and how to utilize its construction capabilities.

As design and aesthetics are always where my attention goes first, I want to be sure I understand functionally so I can create a project that is visually pleasing, yet effective and easy to use.
