Exit slip

Today we talked about Animoto. Some other student's besides myself used this to create their online autobiographies. It thought it was interesting to see how other people created theirs. . We went over our delicious accounts and talk about how they need to have more sites added to them. I realized that I can no longer enter my delicious account. I tried to reset it but I am having trouble. We were presented a presentation about our class readings was done through Glogster. This is a site that they used to present, which is slightly like an online scrap book. I thought it was very interesting to see how it works and all of the different ways it enables people to present. Jeff talked about the presentation and it's "looks". He showed us how some things can be distracting and wordy. He also reminded them to introduce themselves. We discussed in groups the skeptic views of technology vs the enthusiast opinion. My group concentrated on the idea of cost and access of technology in schools. We concluded that there may be alternatives that schools are not considering when it comes to purchasing technology. In the end, the conclusion was slightly not concrete. Jeff suggested that a closing should more obviously presented and a wrap up of the content information. Also we need to be careful of "likes and ums" as well as reading verbatim from the screen.
