Weekly Blog

So what i learned to use this week is the igoogle which i enjoy more then gmail because it just seems like there is more to access and use there and just different things we can add but still get all the good things from gmail. I also like the themes better :P But i have found the google doc and presentations to be useful because after that as a cohort when we are in groups we are using them to do group projects and just stay in touch with eachother which is a great thing because i live in salt lake and can't drive down to meet in groups all the time. This is going to be very helpful when we are out in the field and want to collaborate or need an idea for a certain subject this is just an excellent way to help one another and keep everything going and working when we can't see each other. I also wanted to note it is really cool to have a facebook where everyone can be oon there and we even made a group for us so that we can get on that way since facebook has become such a major part in so many peoples lives. So connecting with parents in the easiest way possible for everyone is going to be excellent when i get into being a teacher because there are all these resources i never knew about to help keep communication between parents and other teachers fast and easy.

The video was good i watched the Web 2.0 it was good to learn what some of those different things were and what they meant because i am not computer savy and didn't even know what they were they alone what they meant. It was also easy to watch because they put in music and a pleasing back ground and a routine of how the information was going to come to the screen. If presentations aren't pleasing they lose there point because no one wants to watch something that doesn't grab their attention.
