E2T2 Class Number 1

New learning, for me, was slightly limited today.  As a media specialist collaboration is a key component of my "education world".   However, there was some interesting conversation today that led me to some new and interesting learning.
I have used Wikispaces in my classroom previously and feel very comfortable in a digital world.    However, I would consider the discussion concerning “bytes” to be interesting new information, 44 exabytes per month as the internet traffic is a large quantity of information. How much data is that? Especially when you consider that 5 exabytes is equivalent all words ever spoken by human beings . . . ever.  I believe I did a good job because I participated when necessary, I moved at my own pace when the objective of “cutting our teeth” was stated and I was able to accomplish the targeted learning.
