This will be my last post for class! The PowerPoint #2 assignment has taught me so much about the different ways to use PowerPoint! I loved working with the action buttons; now I can create review games like Jeopardy or creating a slideshow that does not have to follow one particular pattern. All this practice … Continue reading

I would most likely use projectors in daily classroom activities; the other peripheral devices I would use would be the speakers of the computer, possibly a tablet that could project to the screen, so that I could project what I was writing on a document in front of the class. These resources are all connected … Continue reading

I plan to use presentation software, like Microsoft PowerPoint and Prezi, in my classroom, but I do believe there are pros and cons to its use. Some major advantages, and the main reasons I will use it, are that it is a simple, quick way to organize information that needs to be presented to a … Continue reading

Scribd is an online library, a database containing documents from categories like school work to science to creative writing. It allows users to publish works of their own. In the past, I have seen recipes and homework pages shared on … Continue reading

I think that the use of databases like those the FSU library site http://www.lib.fsu.edu/ offers have been the best internet resources I have used. My high school had a similar website of databases, which were accessible outside of school libraries as well, and I found the most reliable, academic sources there to conduct research with. … Continue reading

For this week’s blog, I’d like to critique the Apple website. As far as the rules for graphic and interface design, I’m pretty sure Apple knows what they’re doing because I love the site. Ithink that Apple uses general design principles well; for example, the multimedia principle is fulfilled as Apple uses words and images … Continue reading
