What I've learned so far in DIG110


    It is difficult to narrow down all I've learned in this first module to just three things. There is so much new technology out that I had no idea about! In doing research for my Canva project, I learned about Agentic AI. I knew what AI was but I had never heard of Agentic AI. Learning about was surprising, because while I knew that AI could do a lot of things, I didn't realize that it could be used on such a human level. 



    While looking through my fellow students projects there was so much more to learn. From rings that can track your fitness and whole body wellness to extended reality where you can seemingly enter a whole different world. The possibilities are endless!

    After learning about where technology is going, I went back to where it started. In learning the history of the internet, I realized it had many more steps to get where it is now than I realized. Learning it really started in the 1950's was shocking. I thought that it started closer to the 1980's. The dates were a little confusing to me, as I'm not really a history minded person. 

    Before I started taking any courses on brightspace, I took the Building our Students Success course. That course really showed me how to navigate and find everything I need to find. It was extremely helpful. I'm someone who has some anxiety when trying new things so I like to be as prepared as possible.

    I prefer text reminders, but also having them emailed to my T-Wolves email is very convenient. 

    I put a lot of time and effort into this module. I am very motivated to learn everything I can about this subject matter to help me in my future business ventures! I will continue to put a lot of time and effort into this.

  WHAT I'VE LEARNED SO FAR Module 6 AR vs. VR vs. AI     The letters are similar; however, augmented reality, virtual reality, and artificial intelligence are all vastly different.  Augmented Reality is adding some sort of media to a view of the actual world.   Virtual Reality is seeing a completely different setting around you using a headset.  Artificial Intelligence is a machine that can learn, in its simplest terms.

  WHAT I'VE LEARNED SO FAR MODULE 5  1. While going through this module, the thing that most surprised me was the sheer number of social media types. I knew about the big ones (Facebook, Twitter/X, Instagram, etc.), but I didn't realize just how many different things are considered social media. Online communication and etiquette: I've been communicating online since AIM was popular, so I'm pretty familiar with the information in that area. (I also remember asking Jeeves questions, yikes!)       I know we learned about Diigo in the last module, but that really stands out as what I will take most from the social media section. I find that so helpful in so many different areas of my life.  2. I watched this when it was first posted, but after watching it again after recent life events, I have a new appreciation for the information Erik gave. I want my digital footprint to be all about making the world a better place. That is so cliché, but it has never b...
