Podcast and video editing

Wow!  The learning curve has been substantial yet manageable for the course thus far.  I'm afraid that this week I almost did me in.  I'd like to blame it on the Thanksgiving holiday or the new dependance on our classmates to collaborate in doing our work but I think that the frustration came from elsewhere.  I realize just how much I am learning with this course.  Things that I have never been exposed to before are now just a part of our workload.  This week's assignment on podcasting and video editing stretched my abilities which is a good thing.  It was all new to me!  The readings were helpful and I thought that I understood them and would be able to navigate easily through the assignment.  Not so fast....I understood the concepts involved in the assignments but actually doing the work was more of a challenge than I expected.  I have to say that I enjoyed the assignment because I worked harder this week than in any of the other courses.
