BLOG 5
Well it's been another couple weeks. We had quiz 3 recently and well...that didn't go too well for me. Hopefully I'll do better on the next one. Last week we had another workshop at the Heritage at Lowman Homes. That workshop was on iGoogle. They reported that only 4 people showed up but overall it went well. This week my group goes and we're doing our workshop on Google Tools. The Tools we chose are Google books, Google Maps, and Youtube. I feel like we made a pretty good presentation and I'm really hoping that the internet doesn't slow down on us. I think that our topics will be very useful for the students that come to the workshop. We also had to turn in our annotated bibliography this past week. I think I did pretty good on mine. We also have to participate in a discussion board for another part of our assignment. Today in class we had to play a game because no one volunteered to be a moderator. Lucky for me, Snoopy was never thrown my way.

Good luck with your workshop! I think they will enjoy youtube as long as they don't get confused with all of the links. It sounded like the internet had caused issues for other groups, hopefully you will be able to connect enough to load youtube videos. Do you have a backup plan?
ReplyDeleteThe residents at the Heritage Home are pretty willing to learn. The Google Apps are always fun and interesting. Like Elizabeth said, you might want to have a backup plan. The computers are ancient and watching streaming video may be a strain for them. Take a deep breath, relax and have fun. The most interestering part of presenting at the Lowman Home is not the actual presentation, but talking freely to the residents after.
