[edit] About Me
My name is Alexia Dawson. I am very excited to join Design and Production of Media Resources this semester.
[edit] My Work
I do Instructional Design for Compass Knowledge Group. My current client is Florida Hospital College, so I get to create WebCT classes to teach Nurses!
[edit] My Current Interests
I am raising a green iguana named 'Stumpy' and a husband called 'Buzz'. They are both a handful but make me very happy.
I love designing interfaces for data. My greatest satisfaction comes from knowing that my product has helped people learn something or simply find the data they need. In a way, I feel like I am working to bolster the intelligence of our country. Learning should be fun and exciting and if I can improve upon that experience for people, I have done my job.
You can see from my brief introduction that LIS5313 is a perfect course for me. I look forward to improving my skills in podcasting, vod production and implementing wikis. I am already comfortable with HTML and CSS, but feel I can always learn more.
I’m looking forward to getting to know everyone in the class better. Believe it or not, I’m really shy, so if I don’t start a conversation with you, feel free to start one with me! You can find me on Facebook too.
[edit] Traveling
I have lived in several areas of the U.S. including (in no certain order):
- Monterey, CA
- South-east AL
- Kennesaw, GA
- Orlando, FL
[edit] Personal Interests
- Fun in Orlando
- Quiet life in Casselberry
- Wonderfully talented husband (who produces Otronicon)
- A very unique and adorable pet iguana, Stumpy
- World of Warcraft addiction
[edit] How to upload files to the wiki
I put together a brief guide to uploading and embedding images in the class wiki.
