This week in the LEAP 1 course, we finished our discussions about resumes and how to make them presentable, mainly what not to include in resumes, such as photographs, any personal information about yourself other than contact information, negative words, or an objective that says what you want.

Thing 4 – Digital Security
I don’t know about you, but I’m fairly reliant upon my smartphone. Communication device, calendar, GPS, camera…the only thing it can’t do (yet) is make me a coffee.(Although it can order and pay for one from my favourite café before I even enter the shop!)

Thing 7 – Twitter
I completed this Thing as a beginner. The first thing I learned was that I had set up a Twitter account in November 2010 and had not posted a single tweet! I still haven’t and I’m not sure that I ever will. I find the application intuitive and very easy to use – it is […]

Newbie
