PhotoStory PSA

Well at first I was panicking about this assignment because I didn't know where to find the pictures for the video. But after reading it over and over again, it finally clicked. Once I got started in PhotoStory and rearranging my pictures, I actually got the hang of it and really enjoyed this project. Kind of scary talking in the microphone at first but I didn't mind after it a while. I wanted complete silence while doing the narrating part and thought maybe the phone would ring, my dog would've started barking, who knows, but it worked out. I really enjoyed working with PhotoStory! After watching the tuturioral about how to save in a different file also helped. Plus I learned about CyberBullying, didn't realize how much information there was about it and how much of it goes on with our kids. A very informative lesson.

Prezi

Once again I used the food guide pyramid for my lesson. If my kids don't learn about the
food guide pryamid by now, then I don't know what to tell them. Since I have used this presentation several times now. Prezi was easy to use once I got started. All the tools were easy to access and put to good use in my presentation.







The difference between the tools is on Prezi they use a wheel tool called a "zebra". This lets you place the wheel on your text to enlarge, move, and turn your text around. I think the advantage on Powerpoint is it has more tools to work with than Prezi. But Prezi is simple and to the point without all the gadgets to work with. Depending on what you need to teach your lessons will help you decide which one you need to work with, Prezi or Powerpoint.

The ISTE that best fits the Prezi assignment is: Model Digital-Age Work and Learning
model an dfacilitate effective use of current and emerging digital tools to locate, anaylzye, and evalute, and use information.
Design and Develop Digital-Age Learing Experiences
design or adapt relevant learning environments that enable all students to pursue their individual curiositites and become active participants.

I went ahead and sent this to Dr. Pierce through his gmail. Having trouble
uploading here in my blog.

Show/Hide Labels

I did my animation on the Food Guide Pyramid. Click on the boxes with the different
colors and it shows what food group it belongs to and the text will go away.

I decided to do my presentation on planning a birthday party on a budget.
I hope this information is useful and helpful to others who have children
and know the expense of planning birthday parties. I have three children
of my own and they are not cheap. I have planned many parties for my
own children and my friends and I enjoy it very much. So I hope these
ideas will you get you started and you may have a few ideas yourself.

Powerpoint

Using powerpoint I created a lesson on the Food Guide Pyramid: How many
servings should we eat? Uploading my presentation onto Slideshare.
