part 1- Professional communication technologies

In this section I have read the course reader on professional communication technologies, and from this i understood the intention of it being an explanationatory form of  a creator/producer of the work to the reader (1-1) in other words its a simple form to direct information from one person to another. On the other hand, web 2.0 is a extensive form of explanation with different platforms and implements, which allows the sharing of various users, expanding the form of communication.








Here is a printscreen which i obtained from a website ( http://learningfutures.wordpress.com/what-is-web-2/ ) which gives me a bigger understanding of the differences between both web 1.0 and 2.0

I have also collected a map by Markus Angermeier which interested me and brought a wider understanding into my thoughts on this task.

overall through my research the discoveries i have come across between both webs are their differences and the impact it has towards us who seek a profession which involves communicating, participating and collaborating with other people through techonology. (architecture of participation)

there are 3 descriptive parts of Web 2.0

(RIA) Rich Internet Application-  this source defines the engaging experience which improves the productivity of a web making the reader's interaction more captivating and engaging.

(WOA) Web- oriented architecture- this source plays the biggest part in Web 2.0, it basically defines the extending service of SOA to web-based applications.(Examples are: Feeds, RSS, Web Services, Mash-ups)

Social Web-  this set of social relations defines how Web 2.0 links everyone together through the world wide web.

• social networking sites, blogs, wikis, and video sharing sites - These social sites involve numerous ways of communication, enabling people to discuss their thoughts, give opinions, share and relate their experiences. (facilitating the sharing of information)

I personally use facebook, blogger and later will be exploring other sources of social networking as my progression develops in order to convey my work and ideas.

After the feedback i have received from Paula below, i have thought about ways in which i could relate what i have learnt in this section to myself and my personal aims and experiences. I think that this interesting point of social networking will be very benefitial to me, as i'am planning to pursue my dream of moving to africa and opening my very own theatre company, this whole idea of using social networking sites will help me explore and balance my ideas, i could develop my work with strategies which could involve questionnaires and websites that people can participate and commune by sharing their votes and opinions , that will be a great way to develop my progression.  In addition , learning about web 1.0 and 2.0 has helped me a lot because it allowed me to gain a better knowledge on  the set of social relations and how important and reliable it is for our modern communication technologies.

task 1c: Audio-Visual

i have created a clip located in youtube ( http://youtu.be/9gSKzHBqfEw ) which explores my initial thoughts on the BAPP programme, the clip is based on my initial plans on being a teacher/teaching assistant, and working with children.
I feel that proceeding with this profession would be rewarding and beneficial in many ways, developing opportunities for myself. As a performing artist the function of acting as an Arbitrator will allow me to grow inside a classroom whilst assisting students in their learning.

this exercise has enabled me to rebuild my skills & knowledge on the production of videos and technology. it has broaden my understanding about ways of publicating things.

The youtube clip i have produced is made up of stages which show the progress of childhood to adulthood, i collected the short clips from users on youtube and assembled them as one, in order to portray the idea of development. the aim of doing this was to reveal my passion  and the intentions of elaborating with children and education.

part 1a- professional profile

through this task i understood that my requirements are to design a blog in order to get accustomed to using the context of technology as a tool and finding ways to explore ideas through it.

Help!

I find it a challenge to blog everything i feel or know, being a kinetic learner i find it very difficult to post on the internet. Having moved in to a new house i dont always get the opportunity to discuss my thoughts and ideas, so i tend to write them on paper. i must say when i am confused i tend to write things down or even use images/diagrams to explain myself and its so much easier doing this on paper. what do i DO???? in order to improve my stratedgy!
