We’ve learned about using Digital Technology in English 112. We have used Digital Technology in class by using Google Docs and Blogger. Using Digital Technology became a good way in communicating with each other and being able to get a hold of any previous assignment anywhere you are.
Google Docs is a website we use in class to write notes we take. One can make documents which is just like a word document that you can save online. since its online you can access it anywhere that has Internet. Google Docs also includes presentation which is like PowerPoint. it includes all the features that a normal PowerPoint has. It also has spreadsheet, form, drawing and table. The most we use in class though is documents. We use documents to draft this evaluation. We also revise, review, and edit using Google Docs.
Another Digital technology we use in English 112 is the Blogger. What is good about Blogger and Google Docs is that it is both powered by google, which means one only need to sign up on one to have both. Blogger is where we submit our texts after we revise and edit it in google docs. Blogger is really great because it also help us connect with each other and it includes a comment box. Having a comment box is great because having other people tell you what you’re missing and what they think about what you wrote. It is also an easy way for the professor to check if we did our work and submitted it on time.
We also learned how to distinguish between a bad and a good digital source. People can just post anything online so a researcher must know when to believe a source and when the source is not true. By doing examples in class we established that when doing a research, a blog source is not a good source because it is biased. People posting in blogs usually put in their own opinions rather than the facts. To know if a digital source is reliable, one needs to check out that website look into the author’s credentials, when it was posted and things like that. a researcher also have to make sure that and double check with other reliable source to see if the information are the same.
Google Docs, blogger, and distinguishing between a good digital source from bad ones are the things we learned in English 112. All of this are part of digital technology. at the end of the semester we learn to use electronic environments to draft, revise, review, edit, and submit texts. We learned to use information retrieved online. Lastly, we learned to publish texts in both print and electronic forms.
