Using a free Web page hosting service such as FreeWebSpace.com create a personal page on the Web which contains your name, photo, and a statement of your educational goals. Post a link (Web URL address) to your Web page within assignment drop box which your instructor can use to preview your site. If you already have a web site presence you can include this information and a link to your existing site for this assignment.
I chose option B since I had already created this blog for my Communications
Studies Capstone course. Although newcomers, such as my EDU648 instructor, might be slightly confused by the blog's URL - "A Producer's Journal", reading further below will explain that I first intended this blog to be a journal outlining my experiences as a beginning independent filmmaker. However, after further though and research in which many of my capstone assignments were required to be posted here, figured it best to repurpose the blog as one about my educational experience as an online student at Ashford University.
One of my main goals for pursuing the MALT program is the fact that I have been online in both professional and personal life for almost the same amount of the time that the internet has been around. I fully recognize the important role that electronic education is and will be playing in our lives and would like to be on the cutting edge of such innovation and experience. Living overseas, I can see how education is becoming more available internationally with almost any subject that anyone wants to study becoming easily accessible with their only limitations being how much time and effort they want to apply to learning. Whereas before, time, affordability, and location were preventive causes for pursuing education, the internet alleviates all concerns as well as equalizes the learning field for all.
Respectfully,
Darnell Baker
