Final Quest - Is It Really? Contributing to Others' Adventures

Honestly, it's kind of cathartic to come into this last blog post and realize that the semester is over, but it's also kind of sad...

But it doesn't have to be sad! Throughout this semester I have gained a plethora of new learning resources, new teaching resources, and new people in my own personal learning network. I am definitely a little sad that I didn't get to participate as much as I should have this semester, but it was still a good learning experience regardless!

Twitter:

Twitter was by far the most fun because I was able to reach out to teachers that I had in high school and see how they were doing and what they were doing in relation to online education! I was also able to get into contact with one of the moderators for SaskEd chat, Trina Crawford, after the chat itself to see where she got her inclusive pins because I wanted one so bad! I was also able to participate in the #bcedchat through Twitter!

Me asking Trina where she got her pins!

Me with the pins and Trina replying!

#bcedchat start!

Blog Posts:

I loved keeping up with people's blog and learning blog posts! I tried to keep up with most of the ones I was super interested in as I've been very busy this semester, but I did try to comment on them! Seeing people make progress has been really cool and watching that progress throughout the posts is very uplifting! Here are some examples:

Jana's project on refurbishing old wood!

Gledi's project on doing a muscle up!

Brandy's coding post!

Discord:

Discord was a hard one to keep up with, even with me using it every day! People would ask questions and give the answers by the time I had already looked at it so it was hard to give my input, however, I did post two things on there and one was about academic burnout (another reason I was behind). People seemed to interact well with it because they had been going through the same thing which made me feel good that I could help others with that resource!

Actually, using Discord was super helpful because I actually ended up bookmarking this resource because I've used it so many times this semester!

The other was about Wondershare Filmora, an easy video editing tool that I used and described how to use it in my previous post here!
