iGoogle / RSS / Internet Resources / Online Community (Blogs)

From the survey : Would like to get ready for my job. - MS Office programs in Skillport. Choose a topic / project / community that relates to your job.

i would like to just be better at computer programs overall and would love to learn more about like kodak programs or picture programs but i doubt you learn about that in this class. That would be awesome though :) - Find a tutorial in the photo editor and use those skills in your projects. Include using Photoshop or Publisher in your plan.

learn more about making websites - We are going to create blog websites

they use something called CAD/CAM to take 3D images of amputees residual limbs- I'll bet there is a blog or a forum or a support group for amputees. And I know there are some 3D modeling students here on UNCW campus. Why not use some business management and organization skills to put the two together? I bet an employer would think want to hire someone who put something like that together.

hold my own with the rest of the fast pace technological world- In my opinion, in order to 'hold your own' with technology you have play an active role in a community and use the technology.
