What I learned about the technology was how to use a flip camera and what one was. I learned how to add music and title slides to the windows movie maker. I enjoyed working with both.
How can it be used or is being used in my academic or personal life. I can use the movie maker in my personal life to create little videos for Tara using her pictures. The flip camera I could record her doing different things and make that into a movie as well for her.
How can it be used in my intended career or job I can use it in my job to show someone how to do a task that they may not know how to do. I can use windows movie maker to put it into a short movie so others in the company can view it.

week 6

We learned about Flip Camera’s, windows movie maker, and OneNote
What I learned about the Technology was that flip cameras can help you show how something is done when you do not have a webcam. Window’s movie maker lets you put a movie together, and OneNote helps you keep the entire document you may need for something important in one spot.
How can it be used or is being used in your academic or personal life the flip camera can help you show someone who has no clue how to do something show them the way to do it. Windows movie maker allows you to make the show into a movie so that everyone can see how to do it. OneNote allows you to send the documents that are needed by another person in the office to them without having to find the real file and then taking it to them, I use OneNote for school it helps me keep all of my school papers in one spot.
How can it be used in your intended career or job? The flip camera can show someone in your office the correct way to use office or the correct way to use a copy machine. Windows movie maker can make it so that you can put the movie into a video so that everyone can see the proper way to use the equipment. OneNote can be used to send files that are needed elsewhere in the office to that location easily.
What work will you do before the next class? I will get the movie of the proper keyboarding technique done and ready to be uploaded, I will get my tweet done, I will get week 7’s blog done, I will practice for my Jing video, and I will find out about webcams, I will set up a Skype account.

week 5

What I learned about the Technology was that OneNote can help you keep everything in one spot for all of your classes. It can also help you get things straight for classes so you are not fishing for notes on notebook paper you can go and find it very easily.
How it can be used or is being used in your academic or personal life? I actually have been using it since last quarter. I have a separate notebook for my classes and then one to keep all my bills so I am not playing such and find all of my bills are scanned into the desktop and then placed in the appropriate file folder and then attached to the one note section and tab that matches up to what the bill is for. It eliminates the need for trying to find the bill I can print the bill right from the desktop and send it in with the payment.
How it can be used in your intended career or job? I can use OneNote to keep track of meeting minutes. My bosses work schedule meetings that are yearly or even monthly.
What work will you do before next class? I will post this blog, finish the OneNote workbook for the in-class assignment, finish OneNote workbook 1b, and do OneNote project 1c.

Week 4

Today we learned about: twitter, podcasting, one note, and adobe acrobat.

What I learned about the technology twitter- hashtags, podcasting- recording our 3-5 minute introduction about ourselves, one note-exploring OneNote learning where everything is. Adobe-learned different items and commands.

How it can be used or is being used in your academic or personal life? Twitter- tweeting about different things for assignments or even to help others in the office. Podcasting that can be used to record classes or even meetings in the office. OneNote that can be used to put all of the assignments for classes in one spot I currently use it this way. In the office it can hold the meeting minutes. Adobe when you have to post something and you do not want someone messing with it you can save it as pdf and adobe opens it.

How can it be used in your intended career or job? Twitter can be to help someone in the office with a project and you found a website that might help them. Podcasting can be used to help you practice a tricky presentation that you have to give. One note can be used to help keep all of the different websites for the presentation in one spot so you do not have to dig for the website again. Adobe can help you be able to put the report on the web for others to be able to read.

What work will you do before the next class? I will complete my 3-5 min script on my favorite book/movie. I will also complete pages 1-9 in the OneNote book. I will also tweet about OneNote.
