Lesson 1 Immediate Relevance: 2005 Video

Video continues to be a part of my own learning and others around me access video, particularly YouTube, on a daily basis. I have not used YouTube personally to create my own lessons, however; family, friends, and I use it for quick knowledge and to problem solve, construct an item, or learn about a new concept. This is relevant and demonstrated through the comparison chart on page 87 between formal education and Informal Learning (2020). The latter for example being experimental, innovative, and a solution to short-term needs, which is satisfying.

I recently took apart our entire washing machine with the help of YouTube to repair the rubber ring within<\/a>. Without video I would have less in my pocket and may have even replaced the item impacting the environment and spending grocery money. Another example of the beauty of video education, is my daughter was sitting on our couch crocheting. I’ve crocheted previously and years ago tried to teach her without gaining any enthusiasm. I asked her last night, when and where did she learn to crochet a blanket<\/a>? Her response, was, YouTube. My husband wants to learn more about cryptocurrency<\/a> and YouTube is his primary resource for education. YouTube provides information that we do not want to ask others about or use up their time, and it gives us immediate access to solutions through a visual demonstration. Video is relevant, popular, and accessible.

Lesson 2 Work Contradiction: 2003 Blogs

Blogging and the continuous involvement to be a blogger, respond to a blogger, or contradict and engage in others blogs, is extremely tiring and not at all a part of my work environment. In my opinion, blogging seems to be for individuals who have an excess amount of time online. I would rather sit with a friend, co-worker, or family member and have a personal conversation where the back and forth is immediate, opinions conversed and conversations kept private. Knowledge or information I gain in blogging is not something I use in teaching, education, or my current business environment and rather contradicts the progress I like to see at the end of the day. I would prefer to have concrete work to look at and that would bring a satisfaction of accomplishment versus blogging about my opinions, feelings, or points of view, which seems more for personal social media or in-person dialogue. It is difficult to imagine the physical cues that are missing through a blog. However; maybe I am mistaken and I have not found an opportunity or tried to be\u00a0 successful with blogging<\/a> and there is money to be made and knowledge to gain.
