Hello Leah,

I enjoyed reading through your RLO Green ICT Technologies.  It was interesting to try to compare how the organization that I work with match the various criteria and the different strategies that you have listed in your RLO.  Unfortunately I don’t think we did that well   We are still need work that is for sure.

In terms of the content, I found that it was nice to have a series of reading and exercise activities, which helped further understand the content that was presented.  I did find the navigation straight forward but I did have a bit difficult when trying to follow a few things, but that might have just been me or word press.  I did run into one problem where I couldn’t click on the link to list major supporting organizations.  But that is pretty minor.

With regards to the objectives that you identified, I believe I met them all even though I didn’t read every external resources (such as books) as you had a lot of them (which is good).

Thanks again for putting together this RLO, I’ll definitely have to take a look at the office and see what I can do to make it more green.

Hi,

Just trying to clear up a question... from the Study Guide the presentation is described as:"The presentation format is very strict, based loosely on the popular Pecha Kucha format, with some modifications." the definition of Pecha Kucha being 20 slides for 20 seconds each.

But in the assignment description it says:  "Presentation: Your presentation should be precisely 5 minutes long, comprising exactly ten slides of approximately 30 seconds’ duration each. It should summarize your findings clearly and concisely."

To me, I'm thinking both instructions are describing a different type of presentation and I tend to lean towards the instruction in the assignment decription since we've haven't strictly followed the study guide up to this point anyway.

What is everyone else in the group is doing?

Paul,

I read "loosely based" to mean the format will be as described in the assignment - 5 mins long, 10 slides, 30 secs each.

Makes sense now that I read it that way.

Thanks for the help.

Leah,

This is so true about abandance of information and that with social networks you have access both to local, national and international information, as well as aware of what your friends reading, discussing or sharing with the rest.

It's almost a good thing in a way. The massive spread of information available. People are more aware of events across the world than ever before. But I think this can also be a bad thing as well, such as negative posts about people or negative videos and ignorant views can be spread faster than ever before.
