Digital Story: Growth

I made a digital story! It still needs some editing, but I’ll have to wait for some time off work to fine tune it. Click below to see the animation. It’s inspired by a picture I took on the way home from Estevan (see Bits and Bites).…

6 Words, 2 birds, 1 stone

Hello fellow etmoocers,

This will be short and sweet! Totally enjoying the parts of this module that I am able to engage with – as always time is too short so just dipping in and out. God bless Twitter for keeping me up to date!…
