My view on how i learn has not changed but my readings have enlightened my thought process on all of the different learning aspects and how the brain works. Also focusing a lot on technology helps as well considering the times we are living in. This is the technology error. My learning style is more intellectual and somatic. I learn best by reading and re reading over information so that it sticks in my brain to have a better understanding and also extra detail. Hands on after reading also allows my brain to connect what i have read in live form. It allows me to test what i have read in a visual since as well. Technology plays a large role in my learning and also helping others learn as well. Today everything is becoming paperless to help the environment and we are working online and with online applications more frequently. when learning and when teaching i have to create applications and information online to assist me and also others with grasping the material that is being presented. befroe i train material i have to train and teach my self the information, and after i do this if material does not currently exist online i must create my own. The material must be creative, be detailed, and cover all expected material for the course.

Connectivism
My connections facilitate learning by allowing me to research and read material i am questioning or topics i am curious about. Face book allows me to be a little more social in life and also learn from other individuals with personal information and also business. Face book houses all of my friends in many different states and they all come from different backgrounds, cultures, and live different lifestyles. I read whats going on their lives constantly and learn from their life experiences. I also have a small business and many others i know also have a business page on face book as well. By viewing their pages and information it shows me different aspects of how i can present certain information as well. Google allows me to access Walden University, You Tube, and miscellaneous sources. Google allows me to pull many topics that i question and i am able to read about the topic and learn plenty of new information. You Tube allows me to search for videos that will give me a visual along with speaking to walk me through a process of how to complete a task, create something, or fix something. Walden University allows me to learn from the resources the Instructor presents and also my classmates per the topics we are discussing. Kindle is very useful because i can access many books that can educate me when i read them, and blogs are similar to face book and allows me to learn from communication and others posts that are listed. All of the tools work best for me in different ways. When i have new questions all of these allows me to ask by typing to an individual or pull up the question for research.
