Tools

Here is a list of potential tools. Tools you choose must be unfamiliar to you, or you must have experienced such failure that they may well be completely unfamiliar to you! If you have a tool you'd like to use that is NOT on this list, please let me know and we can discuss.

Please let me know as soon as you can which three tools you would like to choose (I will then create the requirements for completing each specific tool). If at any point you change your mind about a tool, please let me know right away so that I can create requirements for the new tool.

The next post I write will describe how to begin participating in the program.

Have fun perusing the possibilities, and please don't hesitate to ask me any questions about the tools before you make your choices.
