Unit 5

The course has referenced a variety of mediums for learning the content needed to navigate Linux, networking, and ultimately the LAMP project running. In previous courses I would had definitely said that I learn best from reading articles or textbooks. If I read a text, write some notes, and review them, I remember the content better than other styles. That seemed to work well when studying history, English, or philosophy, but the medium that has greatly helped me with configuring programs for 672 has been video. In the world of words and discussion, reading texts is my best way to learn the subject, but in the world of computer screens it has been very helpful to see and listen to someone performing the task, then repeating it myself. Once I have seen a video, then a document with instructions and screen captures would probably be a faster reference if I had to refresh myself to repeat the task.
