So I have spent time fiddling around with the new CAS apparatus, and I still have mixed feelings about it. I will reiterate that I am very upset that you can't work on posts as a draft without publishing, which I find irksome and invasive of my private thoughts and planning. This is my main complaint, and until I find a way to combat it I will probably do double posting in this blog because I fear the power of this ManageBAC system. Rather ugglesome.
Anyways, besides this nuisance, I have had trouble making my calendar of events. I figured out how to post events to my group or activities page, but I can't figure out how to add others to my personal calendar. This could be very useful because I can work on planning things and stay more organized in general. I do like the ability of students to edit groups and add messages and events and such, but I would really enjoy another facet of that to extend to individual planning. I do applaud the groups and events and activity control though, and I plan to use it extensively for my activities, especially Spanish Club.
Matt,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comments. They are helpful for me while considering this new system. I am considering them, along with your peers' comments as well.
Keep working at it.
