Self-Directed Learning

There are so many cool programs and projects that we could do in the time we have remaining before the end of the year, but we just don’t have time to spend time on them all! With the time remaining, you will have the opportunity to focus your energy in an area that interests you most.

You will be responsible for keeping track of how you spend your time and reporting back to me to explain what you’ve worked on, what you’ve learned, and what you’ve created.

You will have to fill out a LEARNING LOG explaining how you used your time each day. You need to submit a filled in learning log for marks before the end of the semester. DOWNLOAD IT HERE

These are just some of the tutorials/applications/ideas that I recommend. You should investigate whatever area of design/creativity interests you most! Make sure you DISCUSS YOUR OPTIONS & CHOICES WITH MR. ROBSON!

For excellent, in-depth training on a wide variety of applications & subjects, I highly recommend checking out LinkedIn Learning through the Winnipeg Public Library. In order to access these tutorials, you will need a Winnipeg Public Library membership number. If you don’t yet have a Winnipeg Public Library Card, go HERE: Library Membership sign up

You’ll need that card number again, so copy and paste it into a Word document or an email to yourself or whatever! Don’t lose it!

Once you do have a card, sign in HERE: LinkedIn Learning

Tell Mr. Robson what's on your mind!
