Windows Movie Maker

First of all, the software that we were supposed to use was jump cut. Jump cut wasn't cooperating well with us. The problems was that we couldn't upload any of the clips. After continuously trying to upload our clips, we decided instead to switch to windows movie maker. Windows movie maker was much easier to upload all our clips. There were a lot of features such as adding music, subtitles, and much more. Overall, this software was easier to work with.

Slideshare software

Doing the slide show presentation was really fun and easy. The thing I learned on this activity was how to make and use the slides. W were to upload our slide presentation and present our topics. I didn't find any problems with the software or the power point. Everything was easy to use when I got the hang of it. If I was to use this as a teacher, I would give presentations or any other information that I need to address my students. This would very beneficial to by not having to handout so many papers and just give them a presentation using one computer. I think that this software can be beneficial to anyone. I thought that the activity today was really interesting and I enjoyed all the presentations.

Scavenger Hunt

During class, our assignment that was given to us was a scavenger hunt. At the beginning of class, we were given a list of things to take picture of. Not only was it a hunt but it was also a race of who can accomplish their task quicker. Right when the hunt started, we ran as fast as we could looking for all the items that was needed. I considered this assignment to also be an exercise. One by one, we had the pictures taken. At first I thought that my team was winning but when we returned to the claaroom, other teams were done an started up loading their pictures. After the hunt I was sweating like a pig. I found his assignment to be really fun and interesting.

Online Word Processors

Today we had to go online and check out new word processors. The word processors I checked out was Think Free. This site was very much similar to Microsoft Word just better.This site had a lot of features. This included blog posting, spell check, and much more. I consider this site to be useful in a lot of ways, although it took a long time to load some pages. I would't recommend this word processor. Out of all that word processors that was given to each group, we all decided that zoho was the most user friendly word processor.
