As part of MDDE 610 - Survey of Current Educational Technologies we are asked to utilize a Computer Based Education tool to learn something that we have always wanted to learn. Using Computer Assisted Instruction (CAI) I am going to attempt to learn how to meditate. Ironically, something that I always wanted to do but never could find the time.
A quick google search revealed many companies offering meditation instruction, as well as others which fed into in-person (for fee) classes. I selected the not-for-profit website: http://www.how-to-meditate.org/ It appealed to me because it didn't seem like it was selling anything, and in addition it had step-wise instruction to complement the instructional videos.
I am committing to going through the process over the next 2 weeks and will post about my journey as well as the experience of using Computer Assisted Instruction.
