6/13/2011

Today we worked on our google sites.
Rab introduced us iTunes University, which provides free recordings of classes in famous universities like Harvard. It also has various videos and recordings that are not academic. For example I found some antique commercial videos of a cerial called sugar crisp. It was really cute.

I was one of the person who said in the survey that I wanted to communicate more with my classmates, and I think having an introduction class outside or getting into groups is a good idea to get a chance to talk with others. However I think getting seku-cons are hard even though we are now experts in online communication and can use technology to set up opportunities like that. I think there is a need for us to talk in person and know each other before communicating online. But its okay because I am really satisfied with what I gained through class and I really liked this sophomore class because it helped me so much on TW and other works in university. I'm sure it will also help me in life afterwords.

Oh and I was talking with one of the three Kana's today and she was having troubles with Zotero. I was just working on mine and it seems like I have the same problem. When I try to sync with the online zotero, it shows an error saying that there is "empty response from server". I looked up for solutions and tried emptying the trash and so on but it still doesn't work. The last time I synced was four days ago and it worked fine. I'm really worried because I have to show my zotero information to Rab on Wednesday. Anyways for the time being I'll just wait and believe that the problem has nothing to do with me and that the server is in maintenance or something.
