Working on the jumpcut video was fun because we had to work as a group and it was funny trying to keep serious faces when filming each other. I had so much fun working with my group. We had to sit down and decide what to advertise first then Soly and I put our heads together and wrote a script. Then we collaborated with keoni and got to work. It was fun and when the final product was done we were really excited about showing it to our class.

Working on the weebly was interesting for me because it was like having to create a professional portfolio all over again except it was done with technology. That made it a lot easier because it saved time with cutting, pasting, writing, typing and etc.

OVERALL both projects were really fun and I enjoyed it a lot...I think these projects were great...the only downfall was that jump cut gave us a hard time with the uploading process...

Story flick presentations

SO today we did a presentation where we used three different websites. My group and I had to use picue trail. I think I'd probably be most comfortable using picture trail simply because i've used it before and so i know what to expect. I'd also choose to use rockyou simly becase we can include music in it and engaging music into the curricculum allows kis to be more aware of their expectations. all in all they were all really good =]

web quest

Today we presented our webquest projects and I thought it was pretty interesting how my classmates had such a variety of topics. Although the curriculum was rather similar, the topics were of great variety which made it really fun. I liked the ideas that other people had. I had fun using this program and I do plan to use it in my classroom. My students would probably create their own webquests in group and then allow their classmates to complete each others' activities on the webquest project. Or I could use it for big projects that would be rather time consuming and I would allow my students to work at the computer center and complete the activities. That way we aren't losing time in class to complete such activities. This was an awesome activity =]

Digital Camera Scavenger Hunt

Let me just start by saying, I have NEVER had to run so much just to take pictures. It felt like we were racing for a million dollars or something...there should have been an incentive for this hunt for the first team who completed their pictures first and were the first ones back to class!
The activity today was awesome. It was a good twist for a change. The usual in class lecture and computer activity does get a little predictable after a while so I thought it was pretty good to throw in this activity. Its important for us as teachers in training to remember to do things like this so we can keep the energy in the classroom at a steady high.
I already knew how to work the camera and download the pictures so the fun part for me was actually going out to take the pictures...i had an awesome time and It was a really good idea for an assignment =]

word processing software

hmm....i guess i never realized how BENEFICIAL online word processing could actually be. Now I have so many options to chose from when I think about doing my next presentation. Today in class, Keoni and I were assigned to work with inetword.com and explore the website and find out some things to share with our classmates. We had fun with the website. We also got to see three other websites that the three other groups in class worked on and I found my new favorite online word processing site =] I'm glad we got to explore these websites today. It was a fun class =]
