My name is Jamie and I am a second year Sport Management student at Brock University. I suppose you would like to know a little bit more about me before the course starts. I am 20 years old and grew up in Hamilton. I love my family and pets (1 dog and 3 cats). I enjoy staying active and travelling to various places. So far in my life, I have made it to Vancouver, Quebec, New York, Florida, Las Vegas, Cuba, and Mexico. I am applying to study abroad in Germany next fall so I am looking forward to that travelling experience! I do not watch a lot of television nor do I participate in virtual environments as much as the rest of my generation. I am not addicted to Facebook nor do I obsess with what the internet has to offer. Instead, I like to communicate in person with my real friends and loving family because there is nothing that beats in-person communication nowadays! I don't like horror films or rainy days or rather anything that is negative or depressing to me. I am a very energetic and positive person who tries to live life to its fullest. I have many goals (both short-term and long-term) that keep me motivated and dedicated. Some of my goals include travelling more, completing my undergrad with honors, and staying happy.
The purpose of this blog is strictly for academia reasons. This blog will act as a platform where I post my weekly reports and reflections as well as anything else that may be required from the instructor (eg. various assignments). I will be using "Session numbers" in my blog post titles to make it easier for anyone to navigate throughout my educational blog. I hope you all enjoy my posts and feel free to follow my blog and comment/share my posts!
This course "Learning in Digital Contexts" is going to be very rewarding to both digital natives and immigrants. Although I am confident to say I have great computer skills, I believe there is always room for improvement. I hope this course offers a range of opportunities to find effective digital tools to assist me throughout my academic career and personal life. After finding the tools that fit my specific needs, I plan to learn how to utilize them effectively and get the most out of them. I hope this course enhances and brings value to my technological skills while providing me with different resources I need to succeed in my life.
