I've attempted a "different" way of blogging this go around. Thanks to Christopher Lister for being the first in our #tiegrad cohort to post using Thinglink; overall I'm happy with my experience using this new-to-me tool. I worked very hard to try to find a way to embed my soundcloud audio clips so that if you clicked on one it would just play, rather than take you to the soundcloud site. Needless to say I was not successful with this. If this is indeed achievable, and someone does know how to make that work, I'd love to hear from you! Otherwise, these Piktochart visuals offer up a summary of my assessment of my various online yoga resources. Please don't feel the need to listen to every single link (unless you're considering taking up yoga online!), but pick and choose to get the gist of what I liked or didn't like about my online yoga sites.
I took some time to reflect on my #tiefit journey and the #learningproject that is #notmylearningproject. I used piktochart to create this infograph to act as an outline of sorts for my ramblings in my (very first) vlog post. I initially vlogged using iMovie, but had some difficulty uploading it from my iPad, and then, after a 2nd failed attempt at vlogging (more uploading issues) using my iPhone, I gave the app, Explain Everything, a try. My third time was lucky, indeed, and my novice attempt at vlogging is posted here for all to see.
I would have liked to have spent some time doing at least a bit of editing, but there are only so many hours in the day, so I'll save that for next time. As well, I think I need to work towards being "tighter" in my ramblings; you'd think that by the 3rd try things would have become pretty polished, but apparently not! At any rate, I am glad I tried vlogging and want to say that I'll do it again, but it certainly takes some effort to get past both listening to and looking at myself. One thing is for certain: I could never have pursued an acting career.
