2.  My learning preferences for the beginning of semester were quite
interesting.The scores that I have gotten were active (1), sensory
(3), visual (5), and sequential (3). By the end of this class I feel that
my learning preferences have not changed too much in way were
they were completely different from the beginning of the
semester. I feel that I have become more of a global learning now.
At the end of the class, my overall thoughts about learning
preferences have not changed at all. This is because I know that
everyone has their own way of learning and each are all beneficial
to how they take information in. Knowing about learning
preferences can be very helpful. By knowing a person’s learning
preference, the person could use this to their advantage to help
study information in way that is most efficient to them.

3.  At the beginning of the class, I chose the learning pathway of
learning sage. I wanted to learn more about different technologies
and how they could be used for learning in general. Throughout
the semester, I was able to obtain a broader knowledge of
multimedia technologies. One very beneficial quest for me was the
quest on podcasts. I have used podcasts before but not for
learning purposes. I was very unaware that podcasts could be
used to learn about topics in the classes that currently take. I was
so intrigued that I started to use podcasts as a learning tool for my
classes. By the end of the semester, my learning pathway has not
changed at all. I still try to broaden my knowledge on multimedia
technologies. My pathway did not change because I felt that even
though I have some knowledge on multimedia technologies, there
are still other things that I need to learn about to broaden my
understanding.

4.  To get a broader understanding of multimedia technology, the level one
activities helped me with this. By reading the slides from the Powerpoint,
I was able to learn about the types and uses on different multimedia
technologies. Also, by taking the quizzes, they showed me how much I
know about multimedia, podcasts, and screencasts and showed me what
I still did not know. To get a deeper understanding of multimedia
technology, there were a few things that aided me with achieving this.
One was that I chose multimedia for a level three activity. By doing this, I
was able to use multimedia first hand in helping with my studies.
Another aid for helping me get a deeper understanding on multimedia
tools were the predict, use, and evaluate activities. There were some
games that intrigued me a lot and showed me how useful multimedia
technologies are so helpful towards learning. The main activity that I saw
that worked best for learning with others were the activities that involve
myself and others to use the forums to ask and answer other people’s
questions.

5.  The most helpful multimedia technology quest that aided in my
learning was the quest on multimedia. I experience the use of
multimedia every day throughout my life. Before this class, I was
very unaware of what multimedia was. WIth taking this quest, I
had a better understanding what was considered multimedia. As I
stated earlier, I have chosen this quest’s level three activity.
Throughout the semester, the knowledge that I have gained from
using multimedia, helped me understand topics in my class that
confused me very much. Since multimedia could be anything
from a video with audio to powerpoint with audio, my learning
preferences were very stimulate and I was able to learn about
certain topics more easily. Since I am a visual, watching the videos
got very engaging in what was being taught.

6.  Another helpful multimedia technology quest that aided in my learning
was the quest on podcasts. I have used podcasts before this class, but I
was unaware of how much potential this technology has to be a learning
tool. I only used podcasts to listen to about videos and interviews with
some celebrities/athletes. By reading over the slides and taking the quiz, I
was able to broaden my knowledge on podcasts in way that could help
me with my classes. The predict, use, and evaluate activity showed me
some of the uses for how podcasts could be used for learning and showed
that I could find subjects on topics that I am learning about in my class.
Although audio and global were not any of my learning preferences, I
feel that by using podcasts for learning, I was able to stimulate the
learning preferences that I did not have in the beginning of the semester.
By listening to many podcasts for educational purposes helped stimulate
my audio learning preference and by sharing and finding other podcasts
on the internet, this has helped me stimulate my global learning
preference.

7.  The last helpful multimedia technology quest that aided in
my learning was the quest on screencasts. I explored this
multimedia technology by doing the level one and level two
activities for this quest. The slides from the powerpoint and
the quiz helped broaden my knowledge on what screencasts
are. I was unaware of what screencasts were until I took this
class. The predict, use, and evaluate activity informed me on
how screencasts worked and I used this to advantage on
learning about topics for my other classes. Since screencasts
has many qualities that contribute to many different
learning preferences, I was able to take in information
easier. Audio and visual aids helped out a lot for my
learning when I used screencasts to study.

8.  As learning tools, podcasts interested me the most. I was
unaware of how much a learning tool that podcasts could be
and that me want to find podcasts about subjects that I am
learning about in school. Multimedia and screencasts
surprised me the most. I was very unaware of websites and
applications that I use everyday of what they really are.
Since I go on youtube a lot, I did not realize that this type of
multimedia tool is helping me with my learning. All of the
multimedia technologies were very helpful with my
learning and were not in any way unhelpful. This is
probably because there is so much information provided by
these types of multimedia technologies that I could find on
the internet.
 Marc Tinio

9.  I believe that out of all of the multimedia technologies,
screencasts worked best for my learning preferences.
Since screencasts involve a video, this helped me with
learning a lot because I have a learning preference in
visual.Sharing and finding podcasts online can
contribute to me becoming a global learner. By sharing
and finding podcasts online, this stimulates my active
learner preference. Also mostly all of the multimedia
technologies that I have experienced throughout this
class have an audio aspect to them. With this, I could
become more balanced between a visual and an audio
learner.

10.  The learning strategies that I have learned
throughout this semester were very helpful and I
plan on using most of them after this class. I could
use podcasts to learn about a certain topic to help
me study for exams for other classes. I can also my
Ipod to put podcasts that I download onto my
computer so that I can listen to them when I am
not at home. Looking up screencasts on my
computer can also help me if I want to look for
some interviewing tips and tips on to make my job
easier. Such as tutorials on how to program a
computer.

11.  Throughout the semester, all of the multimedia technologies
that I have learned about have interested me a bunch. After
this class, I will most likely use all of the multimedia
technologies for learning purposes. This is because these
multimedia devices have been very useful in learning about
information throughout this class. Multimedia technologies
are available to me every day and I could use them both for
either learning or non-learning purposes. I believe that by
using all of these multimedia technologies, they can aid in
me in my daily life and also the rest of the classes that I
would have to take. After this class, I do not see myself
avoided any of the multimedia technologies that I have
learned about this semester.
