I loved the introduction to the activity about “google” being used as a verb. I had a professor in Sweden who would always say “just google it”. For this activity I chose to utilize the google calendar and the google alerts. The link to my calendar is listed below. I was impressed by how easy it was to set up my calendar. I usually keep up with important dates in a hand written calendar , but having one online connected right there with my email makes so much more sense. It is really practical for me because I do check my email every day.
For the Google Alerts I chose the topics of Autism and ADHD. I wanted to choose topics that I was interested in while at the same time providing myself with information that would be beneficial to my career. Creating the alerts was super easy. I also liked how I was able to choose how often I received updates. Though I am interested in Autism and ADHD realistically I do not have the time to read about them every day. I do not believe I am able to share my alerts, so I have included an article that was sent in the news section of my very first alert.
The calendar I created: https://www.google.com/calendar/render?gsessionid=fITg48egyZfRQV7mtvgo-g I created the calendar for the first week of March so you may have to click through some days.
