Oct. 29th Presentations

Well, there were two presentations done today. The first one was by Kristen Jackson and Erin Henson. There presentation was about Integrating Technology into the Classroom. Things they presented and talked about were Microsoft Access, a database program; Microsoft Word, a word processing program; PowerPoint, a presentation software; Microsoft Excl, a spreadsheet program; Interactive Websites, which involve visual learning; and Desktop Publisher, which has puzzles and graphic organizers that can be used. The presentation also had links to a tutorial website and www.cellsalive.com.

The second presentation was done by Devarous (Buster) Finney and Taneya Alexander and it was about The Role of Technology in Sports. Their slides included things for Editing Digital Video; using Microsoft Excel for stats; using Projectors; using Websites that show different game plays around the Internet; and using Audio Technology like headphones, ect.

Both groups did a really good job! Talk to you next time!!

Multimedia Project

I chose to do my project over integrating technology into the classroom using physical education and sports. My partner was Zech Donaldson. Well, our first plan was for him to set up the powerpoint and the animation and I would find all of the information. But, because he didn't contact me, I completed the project on my own. I did spend quite a bit of time working on the project. It wasn't too hard because I already knew how to use powerpoint. The only thing that I had trouble with was getting my video to play on it and getting the music to keep playing. I also couldn't figure out how to zip it. Well since Zech decided not to call me, it resulted in a problem because I had to do all of the work alone. Well, I just submitted it like 5 minutes ago, so I am done! I feel accomplished and as if I really learned something. I actually enjoyed working on it. For next time, I would rather work with someone else. Not just because of our problem, but because its nice to change things up. I have no problem with our partners being chosen again.
Have a nice weekend!
