1.1 My recent activities involved induction to the DIL program. This involved meeting with other participants in this project and introductions were made. We then watched two videos describing the future of digital information in 2014 called EPIC. Discussion of what we had viewed was encouraged and people gave opinions of what they had witnessed. My perception of the viewing was to understand how google offered free digital storage of information through its email application, and how users can create a ‘google grid’. We were then asked as to what pathway we would have interest in. I expressed a desire to learn podcasting and teleconferencing. An online survey was then conducted where 15 questions were asked. Seemingly, these questions were designed to gauge my current involvement with technology (digital) and how best I cope with capturing and disseminating information.
1.2 Some initial steps I took in taking part in this project are to actively listen to the instructions of what criterion is required and to contribute accordingly. As part of my decision making process to this program, I used my current learning in Māori broadcasting to guide my thoughts of how best to use this program to my advantage. I currently have some experience with some “bits” of digital technology and this project will allow me to hone my meagre knowledge base.
This project seems to offer me further promise of understanding digital information and of where this may lead my plans for the future. My idea is to take this information “home” to an environment where digitalisation is slowly becoming a reality for many of my “home bodies”. The actions I used were to view and compile information from e-mit such as; google grid, EPIC, Wiki and blogging.
2.1 My decision to this point will be to follow a pathway that may allow me to pursue a career where digital technology such as; podcasting, digital conferencing, digital photo and video capturing along with digital whiteboard technology, will help me achieve success with my current studies and future goals.
2.2 My reaction to viewing DIL material is somewhat mixed and confusing. However, I saw a myriad of pictures while browsing blogger sites. These pictures seemed totally irrelevant to my concept of what blogging may mean, so I just let the cursor touch on photos with pretty girls in them. This distracted me from my real reason for doing this project, just to find that some of the pictures were irrelevant to what the written words were saying. I guess the only thing for it, is to stay on track with my digital learning.
3.1 Certainly I am learning how to blog and have started a weblog called buzzblogonspot. I have also learnt how to get around the smartboard. These learning will help me in my studies in terms of assignment content, layout and structure. Blogging will help me find subjective material. While use of a smartboard will help me present my findings in professional way.
3.2 Realistic goals for me, is to successfully complete a Degree in Communication with MIT. Then to use my learning to create a regional broadcasting environment within my “home town”. My decision-making will encompass all peoples and persons in “our” region.
