How has the Internet has impacted your own personal learning? The internet has made it easier to find information. I t is far more convenient to work and learn on your own time when the information is so readily available. I often to visit ESPN, Capital One, Yahoo!, and Google. I also visit sites/links to articles recommended by professors. I do not typically "follow" any authors or sites. For purposes of this course, I now follow ESPN and a few other sites on twitter but that's it.
The internet helps my learning by allowing me access what I need in a convenient manner. The internet can also be a little distracting from my learning when I am online to complete work but get sidetracked by interesting articles or scores from games. Overall, I think technology is a very important part of learning. It has changed the way we learn and go to school for the better.
