2nd Emerging Technology
1. DIGITAL PHOTO is the technology that I am going to explore with you today.
2.SUMMARY- I have always loved pictures but, when I find out that there were sites that I could go to and upload my pictures so all of my friends could be it. I COULD NOT BELIEVE IT. SLIDE.com is the digial photo site that I am using. There are many digital photo sites that you can use such picasa, flikr, and slide. I am just going to get into how to use slide today. It can be useful in the class by showing the students picture of their abcs and them being able to tell you the letter as it comes up. It is also useful because the older kids can upload picture to express themselves in the classroom.
3. PERSONAL TESTIMONY-Slide is very user friendly, I hate using technology and I thought that is why self explaintory and that is why good at letting you know what to do and how to do it. I did not even have to learn how to use the slide show. It takes you step by step, which is very nice.
4. HOW IT WORKS- Somewhere on this page I have made my own slide.com slideshow for you guys to look at.
FIRST- You go to slide.com
SECOND- Go to the upload here button
THIRD- Go into a file that you want a photo from ( you can upload up to 50 photos at one time and it only takes about 5 minutes to download all of the completely)
FORTH- go to the middle of the page (where your pictures can be edited) and edit the captions to say whatever you want. If you do not want any caption there is a button on the top right of the edit picture section that says clear my captions and just click that button.
FIFTH- pick a background out like hearts or glitter. They have 20 backgrounds to choose from
5. TIPS- Do not put any picture on here that you would not want others to see and do not picture naughty pictures on slide.com
Podcasting
1. Podcasting is the technology that I am going to explore today.
2. SUMMARY- I have a diagram to the left of the page that explains what podcasting is and how it is use. If I was doing a lecture and I knew that there were a lot of kids who were sick I could use podcasting to make sure that the information got to them. FIRST I would record my lecture while I am giving it to the other students. SECOND I would put it on the web so the students could get the lecture. In the diagram it is explaining podcasting that people subscribe to and then people looking for information that do not subscribe to your podcasts. So my students are my subscribers and people that may not be my students may stumble across this podcast and get some information that they wanted to know about that I was lecturing about.
3. PERSONAL TESTIMONY- I am currently having problems with this technology. I think it is a great technology to have but, I am have a lot of problems with it and my computers memory is low so it would not even let me download the podcast problem. I think after you get the hang of it it is user friendly but, to a person who does not know anything about technology it is a hard thing to learn.
4. HOW IT WORKS - (I have a video uploading on this blog) you may have to search it because I do not know where it is going to land on my blog when I publish this post. It should be below where I am typing. SINCE I cannot work technology I will also explain to you how it works since the blogger just told me my video is not working. You can subscribe to get podcasting on ipodder and itunes (along with many other places but, these are the most popular). FIRST you download the program SECOND you upload you mp3 on to the podcast and every mp3 is compatible with a podcast so you should have no problem with that. THIRD you let the world subscribe.
5. TIPS- do not put personal information on blogs. podcasts generally are in 32k sound quality like AM radio. you can burn podcasts to CD.
