I feel this class is like a roller coaster of ups and downs. I become slightly optomistic towards using technology and then I become discouraged when I have trouble working with it. This past lesson Pete and I decided to create a Prezi. It was a lot of fun playing with the website and it was easy to use. You can really be very creative. Then came the part of creating the flip video. Sophia was not as easy to work with, even after watching the video on how to use Sophia, I felt completely lost. But I did not give up, I rewatched the video again and this time it made a little more sense. Then after I downloaded Java I could start. Many restarts later I had a finished product, unfortunately I think I didn't work the microphone quite right so you have to turn your speakers up and I messed up the frame so the edit path part of Prezi is off the screen. So I'm back to square one again.
UP and DOWN I go on this rollercoaster ride called TECHNOLOGY.
Technology doesn't always work for all of us. We just get more comfortable using it and trouble shooting. You are making big leaps, you just have to stick with it.
