Nearing the End

It is amazing to look back on the course and see how much I have learned and accomplished. At the beginning if I had been told to create a movie trailer, a published video, or a technological way to display a learning goal, I would have had no clue what to do. I am not yet done the course and so am sure that I will still learn even more, but I am so far enjoying playing around with the tools that we have used up to this point.
For my learning goal today I experimented with using a word cloud. The easy way, and the way that most people use this, is to simply copy and paste an entire document and call it a day. I like to go through my document though to remove words that wouldn't make sense on their own or aren't important (such as the repetitive words like "the" or "and") that would not add any substance to the word cloud. I am very happy with my final product (which you can see on my "Learning Goal" tab at the top) and love seeing all of the important points found in my research so far. It really makes it easy to see what I have learned up to this point, which will also help in creating my TED Talk.
