Reflective Learning Blog Session 4

Subjects are starting to tie together from the previous weeks. Learning about Twitter and starting a Twitter account was a new experience for me. Creating a Twitter account was something I would have never done outside the class and now that I have experienced it I know that I was bored with it. Interesting concept but twitting is not for me socially any way. The next big thing on the internet was the most interesting. I always enjoy reading future predictions on technology and its evolution. I knew very little about IPV6 other than it came with windows Vista. Now I like to say I know a lot more about the subject matter.

The class is becoming more interesting each week. I’ve used Zillow before but just as a casual user. I would never have taken the time to asset the site from data base administrator or even a business analyst point of view. I was also very impressed by the comments from the other student that tackled the site from an information assurance point of view. I am not a data base administrator but I managed a record management system. Our RMS was basically a relational database with a software interface that pulled information from the data base. The reading was a good refresher and also helped tie a lot of things together. I was not familiar with the term data at rest but after doing the reading the subject became relevant. I could relate the topic to what was going on at my job and have a understanding of what many organization are doing wrong. Les is becoming more inventive every week and I like it.

Each week in the class becomes more interesting. I chose to comment about the world of virtualization. As I read the postings from my other class mates I was able to expand my horizons on what virtualization encompasses. I was stuck in the boring world of VPN clients and had not even thought of avatars and the virtual world in side video games. Communicating and sharing ideas is what makes this an innovative and rich experience.

This is my 2nd online class with UMUC and there have been some new technology advances in the web interphase that I found very intresting such as Tyco Conferencing. Also reading the posistions of class perticipants from all over the technology spectrum was intreging; and the assignments for the class are very engageing producing thoughtful responses from the students. I have learned alot and look forward to the rest of the class.
