Here is the second podcast with assignments for week 2. I apologize for its delay.

I appreciate your comments letting me know you've listened. Thanks. 

Week Two

I will upload the weekly podcast later this evening. I wrote the script and thought I emailed it to myself. It resides at home on my laptop. Anyway, I hope you have all joined the course blog (I think I am still waiting on a few stragglers -- please comply ASAP).

And, by now, your own blog with its intro post should be residing in the blogosphere. The list to the right lists more than half of the blogs between the two classes. I added some things to the gradebook and grades will begin appearing for you this week. I encourage you to run your grade report weekly to make sure you are keeping up.

Also, check Angel for your weekly to-do list. Lots of fun stuff for you.

Welcome Fall 2012

Yikes! There are 47 of you (as of 4:01 p.m. Sunday afternoon) and (gulp) one of me.

I will be reading 47 blogs, listening to at least 47 podcasts and grading each and every assignment I create 47 times (at least I am hoping you all do your homework).

At any rate, Media Bootcamp is all about helping you help yourself. Some of you can do some required tasks with your eyes closed (great, you are all now appointed assistants), so I encourage you to find ways to take your projects/assignments to the next level. Some of you are still a little afraid of the technology on your laptops, and it's beyond time to get over that. If you have decided to hate technology and all its trappings, I can assure you this class will be miserable. Instead, I say open your mind a bit and get ready to explore.

My goals for this class are as follows …

1. Help you create a plan to navigate your professional development now and into the future

2. To share with you evidence of the fundamental shift in communication and how that impacts you

3. To help you see beyond the personal use of the social tools you are likely already using (Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Tumblr, Blogger, Google, and on and on and on)

Welcome to MM199. Pay attention. There are two separate classes going on. Section A is the face-to-face and section VA is the online section. We will, however, mingle via our course blog on Word Press, my blog and your individual blogs.

Week One Podcast

Here is an podcast for week one. It's targeted toward the online section of the course, but the face-to-face class might also find it useful.

Online: Please listen and review requested items. If you have questions/comments, please comment on this post. If everything makes sense, you can simply post "OK."

Please note that you can also find the script to this audio within Angel.
