 = 4. Were you successful in completing the course assignments? If not, what prevented or discouraged you? =

Although the beginning of my coursework was late due to personal illness, I was successful in completing the course assignments. However, I was quite discouraged when it came to using some of the Web 2.0 tools my team and I chose to handle our final assignment coursework. Being that we were all from across the state of Texas, we had to find ways to work collaboratively and ensure all had access to each others work. First we used a Wiki. Yet the interaction was not very good so we decided to communicate via email and instant messenger. We uploaded video and audio clips to an online storage account so everyone could have access to each other’s files. The only problem was the storage capacity limitations. We had to open multiple accounts for us to be able to share video, audio, and documentation. Before we knew it, we were confused as to what was where and some could not access after the limit was reached.
