Introduction to Technology: Create
This section involves actually making something yourself. The key
to this section is hands-on work, not just reading about how something
is done. For example, if the module topic is "generic
software," you might be making a brochure in MS Word.
You would be given a link to a brochure template that you can download
and use to create your brochure. Or maybe it will be an online tool
where you will create an account for yourself and make a simple
online activity.
For this Introduction, you will create an account in the "class"
space in NiceNet. This will enable you to join in discussions with
others who are using these modules.
Join the "class" in NiceNet for the Languages and Technology
bulletin board discussions.
