Hi Carly’s Crew!
This week we were back in the classroom learning about various educational technologies. We began the class working in groups of three and giving peer feedback to each other about how our blogs are coming so far. Lucky for you guys I got lots of really positive comments…clearly this blog must be pretty great 😉 Don’t worry, I also got some constructive feedback about how to make this blog even more AWESOME for all of my dedicated followers. One of my goals for my future blogs is to incorporate more photos (especially in my baking).
Katie, Lauren, Lauren and I chose to research iMovie trailers.Everyone had 45 minutes to research their topic and then we took turns presenting. It was super interesting to hear about what our classmates researched and watch how everyone chose to present their knowledge. Our group chose to use Google Presentation because we were already comfortable with it. My favourite part is the plethora of fonts, colours, themes etc. that Google has to offer. It is also perfect for working collaboratively because multiple people can work on it at the same time! One thing I learned about Google Presentation today was how to change the privacy settings so that everyone can see it.
iMovie allows for students to share their knowledge using photos, videos, audio recordings and words.
That was all we got up to today in tech class! Check back next Tuesday to see what else we learn on our educational technology journey.
