2. BLOG POST
I would like you to introduce
yourself to the group as your first assignment. The purpose of doing so is to
introduce yourself so that others can get to know you individually. Compose a
short letter that includes the following information:
1. Your background (the
kind of work you do, your experience using technology).
2. Career plans or goals that relate to
this course, if any.
3. Why you enrolled in this course and
what you hope to accomplish with it.
4. A statement about yourself that will
help us to remember you from the many other students in the course. The
statement should focus on what is unique about you.
