This is an example of editorial image. The first picture is the original and was taken last July in downtown Acworth in front of the train. The second picture is the edited version where I cropped the picture to focus more on my family and not on the large letters on the train.

Task018 Katherine's Illustrated Poster

We have started our new class-ECOMP6016 Teaching and Learning with Multimedia. Here is my poster I created. Have a great weekend:o)

Last Post

This will be my last post on my blog since my second class is finished today:) There were some technology problems with the discussion board at the beginning, but things seemed to be fine the last couple of weeks. I was so excited to finish my volcano web quest and post it Sunday night. I have over 40 websites on my delicious account and have blogged every week. We do not have to meet for our new class until the weekend of January 16th so it will be a nice to have free weekends until then. I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. See you January 2010:o)

Final Project Complete

I just finished my web quest on volcanoes and posted it to the discussion board!! I enjoyed working on this project and had fun creating something different for my students to complete. I have enjoyed all of the projects that I have had to complete for this class. I have learned a lot of new technology information since starting my masters. I can't wait for the other classes that I will take over the next year.

Happy Wednesday

As of last night all of the Smartboards have been installed at Blackwell. I am testing this week, so I have been able to see many great lessons that are already being taught using the Smartboards. All of the students are very excited!! I worked with a Kindergarten class yesterday using the question of the day moving their name under which was their favorite: carrots or candy canes. It will be very exciting to see the wonderful things the teachers at Blackwell will do with the Smartboards.
