OAD 220 class time.

Afternoon all!!

For those that are just looking through all the blogs. I have gone back to college and let me tell you it has been a struggle with a taste of headache a long the way. Let me tell you...I should of done this years ago!! It has changed me in ways I never thought it could. I feel a whole lot better about things I never thought I would.

This past few weeks in my OAD 220 Workplace Technology class I have learned about different contraptions. I have to put my voice on a Podcast on a "how to" use a Fax machine. There are all kinds of company's that use them. Most use them to fax important information from one company to another. It can be used to send conference information like dates, times of, and even to make hotel reservations.

I have also used a digital camera, but then again who hasn't in this time and age. I had one of my classmates take a picture so I could use it for LinkedIn. We have to upload them to our LinkedIn accounts so that everyone on LinkedIn can see what we look like, myself takes bad pictures...lol . Not really, just kidding! On a serious note, this class has helped me with being a better co-worker. One not only has to be a good worker, he/she has to feel relaxed around new people. Which actually this is what has happened with going back to school.

Going to Owens Community College has been a very interesting for me. I was a very shy person for most of my life. This college has made it very easy to be around other students in a class room. And talk about instructors. They have been the best when it comes to teaching a non-traditional student like myself. I learned things in my child hood that is done a whole lot different today. I would like to say thanks to Owens and instructors for all the time they took to help me understand all the needed information to learn about new things. It takes a special instructor to have patients for me.
