New Comm. Tech man… I thought this would be easy and boring cause it’s a first year course but it turned out to the most interesting and fun course I did this semester. We get to watch movies during class.. What do you expect ? And with a tutor like u Adam, how can one complain :P. I attended majority of the tutorials but never stayed to the end of it even once. I think two hours was way too much because everyone who came to class seemed to leave within the hour saying he/she has finished. Overall there were so so many interesting topics that I never even thought would interest me in this course. The one lecture that blew my brains off was the one in week 8 that was presented by Jason Nelson.

It was also good to notice that proper explanations were given for each weeks reading and lecture notes. Although there was a problem for the people who didn’t attend Jason’s lecture have no formal notes or information to study from. Some sort of detailed information regarding the lecture should have been put up at Learning at GU. And also the fact that we have to grasp so much information from movies and have no idea what questions can come from it… it scared me a little. But I was really happy that we got to work with Photoshop and had to modify with it. It was these kinds of tasks that made this course so much fun. This course helped me a lot in understanding the practical aspect of the way things work in the technological world.

However the most fascinating part of it for me was this whole putting up your work on your blog thingy. I had never done this before and never even thought that I would have a course that would expect me to do this sort of thing. But I love it :). It has been so convenient and I would love to have a blog for each course and honestly I think other lecturers and conveners should use this method even if its not a ‘technology’ related course.

So overall New Comm. Tech was an awesome course and Adam… it was an absolute pleasure being a part of your class .. Thanks for everything :)
