Professional Portfolio

Well I am so going to miss this class. Every assignment was new to me. Today I have checked and double checked to make sure I was answering all questions and turning in assignments. I have to say I have never had assignments that just required me to talk to other people and say whats on my mind at the time. So fun. Here is the link to my PP.

I have a cool video to show you!!

Whoo the last 3 weeks have been so full of new technology. I feel like I have done everything short of making a movie on the internet. Just recently I came across this video I posted. I thought I was learning new technology and keeping up with the times. What I know now is that I have to stay in the loop or get left behind. Thanks again Professor Sailor for keeping me in the loop. Enjoy the video.......I would love to hear your thoughts.

Bloglines

Blog/news reader is sooo cool. i had no idea these portals existed. The problem is i don't go to the same web sites all the time. it is grat this service keeps me up to date on a subject or to with a continuos feed of info but, I don't only use the computer to search common topics. i have so many feeds now. I like the way Prof. Sailor has his feeds in folders. I plan to work on that next. It was a task enough for me to set up the reader n the first place. now I don't even know how to show him I did it. This is so confusing but fun at the same time. My site is www.bloglines.com/public/christolm

What a wonderful Saturday. The normal 80 degree weather here in L.A. Did some homework and went to a trackmeet. I had a great race and now I can reflect on my day. I am having trouble with the simplest things in this weeks assignments but it is all working out. I have learned how to create audio files and blog with attached photos. The photo i attached is of my job setting during basketball season. This is my busiest time of the year because several sports overlap. Well anyway ...goodnight!

Wednesday---whoo hoo

Wow, I really need to vent, blog right now. My day has been so full of work. I actually do not even have enough time to blog about the work I need to finish. I am a new full time athletic trainer at a college and i just began re-filing athlete paperwork. I am trying to organise paperwork from the last 8+ years. The athletic trainer before me had a system I could not figure out so I decided today I would fix it. What a job. Thanks to my associate athletic trainer I have help with shredding. Beyond that I am having a great day. Can't wait until tomorrow...jury duty...great!! right.

Week one of Bloging

Blogging is new to me, but talking about my day and myself is old news. I am sure there are tons of people out there that want to hear my daily thoughts and get to know me better. I will start by saying I am very excited about starting my "Technology in Athletic Training" course and using my new skills. This first week of of classes were intimidating at first glance. Once I actually started doing the work my ideas and thoughts were flowing like crazy. Well that' it for the first post......stay tuned.
