I am used to Blackboard now so I don't have any difficulty navigating around. but I did miss some of the tasks this term because I didn't find some work until nearly the end. Pdf files are annoying because you cant work in them. I am looking forward to the new version of blackboard we tested because it has good features like live chat which will be like virtual classroom, the work list is better than the learning tab, it seems more organised and easier to find the work. It also tells when there are comments and each thread is separate.
I enjoyed making the mechanism with a picture of a dragon even though I didn't finish it. figuring out the right mechanism and getting it to work was a challenge. When I made my crane I learnt by trial and error. I feel annoyed when something I do doesn't work so it is good to learn that.
here are some quotes about mistakes
The only real mistake is the one from which we learn nothing.
Mistakes are a fact of life. It is the response to error that counts.
The only person who never makes mistakes is the person who never does anything.
