//Prezi//
This is my first try at Prezi. It’s really interesting! I love the fact you can embed this into our college’s user interface, Blackboard. It eliminates the need for students to have PowerPoint loaded or have to read the text. I guest I have to be careful while doing a Prezi though some fast, long movements made me a little woozy while watching it full screen. It is better when it’s embedded at a smaller size. media type="custom" key="9997817"

I can see the benefits to the collaborative abilities of Google Docs. Just as the video explained during the lecture.

//Slideshare//
Here’s a PowerPoint that I use in my Digital Photography course. Again, I love the fact I can embed this into Blackboard. Students don’t have to navigate way from Blackboard to view the presentation. :-) media type="custom" key="9997967"

//Photos//
Here's the Picasa links to all the photos I've taken over three days and the photo collages are embedded. [|Tuesday Photos] [|Wednesday Photos] [|Thursday Photos]

//Wordle//
I created a wordle with Dr. Ladores’ Top 10 list and this is what I came up with. Again, something like this could have been designed in a graphic editing program, but it truly just takes seconds to do and if you don’t like it, with a push of a button, it rearranges everything. Great creative tool. media type="custom" key="9998253"

//ToonDoo//
With ToonDoo, I created a Photographer’s comic. It’s not that good, but it’s my first try. media type="custom" key="9998273"

//Animoto//
With Animoto, I made two videos, one with Tuesday’s pictures and one with Wednesday’s pictures.

//Voki//
I’ve created this Voki for an introduction to my Digital Photography web course that will be running this fall Allegany College. I’ve already uploaded it to my course in Blackboard. I think it would be great to incorporate some of these as announcements throughout the semester since it doesn’t take too long to create. Usually the announcements in my course are all text and it’s the first thing the students sees when they enter the course, so doing something like this would break it up and keep things interesting, especially with different characters doing the speaking! Can’t wait to do more! [|Here's My Voki]
