I want to learn Java, partly because I want to know what is currently being used in the world of programming and partly because I could be the one to teach the class at my school, once I learn it. I think that the other programming languages are all archaic (the ones I know, that are not supported by the latest computers).
Now, in our readings, I came across this "AJAX" term and I want to know about it. I can't even fathom how complex the computer is, much less, how complex the interactions between them must be!
I was browsing through the Cohort Home Webpage and I came across the Instructional Technology Department Information page. I saw the description of the Masters of Science in Instructional Technology and compared it the Masters of Education in Instructional Technology. I couldn't help but think, "What are they learning that I am not?" Probably, Java among other things.
I also read that we, the cohort, are required to submit an updated portfolio and culminating experience at the end of the program. Is the portfolio something we can start now so it is not so daunting next summer?
Thoughts, anyone?
