Day Four

Today I am remembering to post on the day. We have been working more on the video that we started. All that is left for our video is wording and music. We played a little bit with iPads and the iMovie on those. At the end of class we learned about our google earth assignment and how to make tours on google earth. A tool that we could use in our classroom in the future.

Day Three

Again, I forgot to post right at the end of class... So, last Friday in class I finished up my photoshop collage and posted it to flickr for the first part of class (https://www.flickr.com/photos/132331295@N05/16556539354/). After I was done with posting my picture, I waited for a little bit until it was time for the class to transition into the new topic. The last half of class was learning about our Video assignment. We learned the general information about iMovie and how to use the cameras. After learning the basics, we got into groups to come up with a good idea for our 30 second video and then went to film. My group is doing a video on an article that one of my team mates had read in a different class. After my team planned out what video clips we wanted we went out to capture them. We got all of them besides two, which I took while at home and will bring to class with me next class. Movie editing will be next class. Editing video is something I really enjoy, so I am excited.

Day Two

I actually forgot to post last Friday, so I am doing it now. We worked on finding pictures and working in photoshop. In photoshop we learned to find our pictures and how to do work on one and then add it to the other. Once the two were together we learned how to make them merge better so that they look like they belong together. I still need to find my scanning picture and I need to do my last touches on the other two. I plan to go to the library sometime this week to scan my other picture and do some more work on my collage.

Day One

Today, April 3rd, was my first day in my Education 270 class. In my opinion, 3 hours is way too long to be sitting in a classroom but it should be interesting to see where the class goes and what I will learn from it. Today we learned about Web 2.0 and how the internet started out static and is now interactive and connective. We also took some time to experiment with different websites and get signed up with Flickr.
