For my last tech tip, I downloaded the Canvas app after deleting it because it was glitching last semester and would not let me sign in. I have the Canvas notifications turned off because I personally hate my phone blowing up constantly, and I get the same notifications through my OU email. Not having the notifications on is just my preference when it comes down to it. However, I do check canvas multiple times a day to see if I have missed anything that did not come through as an email notification.

Week 10 Lab: TED Talks: Stories and Storytelling

Image
(A picture of a TED Talk stage from the audiences view.  Photo by TEDx Sydney )  For story lab this week, I have chosen to watch the Stories and Storytelling TED Talks . The first video, The Danger of a Single Story by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie was really fascinating. That talk discussed the problems of the single story. One problem was that single stories lead to misunderstandings. The second problem with the single story was that it made people lose some of their dignity.

It took a psychology standpoint, which I thou...

Mackenzie, found in Indian Myth and Legend : This episode is about Bharata going to the forest to try to get Rama to return to Ayodhya with him.  Most of this episode is written in a dialogue, which is rare. The action of this story is not the most exciting, but there is some action. This tale opens with Bharata going into the forest to look for his brother, Rama. The story closes with Rama stating that his father's orders cannot be undone considering he had passed away. The Sandals , by Donald A.

Tech Tip: Canvas Calendar EC

Image
(A photo of my Canvas Calendar. A screenshot by me, Hannah Mulder.) In this Tech Tip, I learned how to add an event in my own personal calendar on canvas for unofficial due dates.  I also added my Canvas calendar into my Google calendar. I did not know you could do so much with the Canvas calendar; I always just thought it was there for only official due dates of class assignments. It was interesting and helpful to find out I could add my own dates into the calendar and combine it with the other platforms of calendars that I use more often.
