Growing As A Family: A Big Challenge!

My work place is related to education. Before I worked in there, I was a student at the same place. It used to be a small University where everybody knew everybody. Kind of a family type of enviroment.

Few years ago the place went under major changes. Their online programs started to attract not only students but also corporations. In a way, this is a good thing, because business is flourishing. The place have efficient and knowledgeable people, which helpes to make the transition smoother.

However, there is one area that worries me. Because of its continues growing,the place is leaning toward a "corporation" type of enviroment. Will that special "family" environment will be lost with the growing?

I know that my work place is constantly trying to improve by listening, researching and innovating the way they do business, but I feel they should focus in this particular topic:
is there a possibility to have the best of both worlds, the family environment and the growth at the same time? It is possible to use the P.O.S.T. system, and give people what they need? This is a big challenge because in today's business world you are either a big corporation or a small business. Yet my employer is an innovator and have tackle bigger challenges before.

Getting Acquainted with technology

Welcome to the Technology of the 21st Century! I was so excited about this class I hardly could wait to start! This is because I am not very acquainted with Technology. The first week of this class was interesting and we started with a relatively fun project. The class had to set a personal Blog in the web and then submit the URL address into the online classroom. I was very excited about learning and went and set up a fine looking account…

Well, I am learning a lot about Blogging lately. For example, you can set an account the wrong way and you will not be able to log back in! This is my second attempt to set a Blog account, and I really hope it works this time. I love my privacy and I am worry about living my tracks all over the internet, but this is fun to learn.

I look forward to interact with other 21st century learners and share experiences, exchange ideas and concerns, and move forward into the new technology. Happy learning everyone!
