Week 11

Today we covered the Wacom tablet and Adobe placing layers

What I learned about the technology was that the Wacom tablet is just like a mouse. And Adobe placing layers was that you can place layers in adobe so that the other layers are not harmed when you are editing something else.

How can it be used or is being used in my academic or personal life. Well I do not see myself personally using a Wacom Tablet but Adobe can help me create a college of the different photos that I have on my computer.

How can it be used in my intended career or job it can be used in my intended career or job buy making it so I can cut close to pictures to get rid of stuff that I do not want? And Adobe can help me place photos in collages.

What work will I do before next class I will post this blog, get the rocker assignment done and upload it, I will get the computer equipment project done and upload it, I will start to work on my decades project.

How can it be used or is being used in my academic or personal life I can use this to fix some of my photo’s that I have on  the computer that need to be shank down in size.

How it can be used in my intended career or job I could you it to fix photo’s for PowerPoint presentations to make the photo’s better in quality or even use it to fix photo’s for advertisements.

Today we covered Scanning and Adobe.

What I learned about the technology was that you may have to scan a document more than once to get it right. Adobe I learned about the various buttons on the screen when you start an adobe project.

How can these be used in my academic or personal life scanning I use it to scan various things into the computer. It saves me from having several papers lying around. Adobe I have not really used in either my academic or personal life I could use it though to fix some of my pictures.

How can it be used in my intended career or job I can use scanning to scan something to send to someone else through e-mail or even instant messenger. Adobe I can clean up pictures and make them so that I can use them for reports.,

What work will you do before the next class I will post this blog and find my pictures and famous quote from the 1970s.

Week 8

Today we talked about Skype, scanning, Jing, and webcams.

What I learned about the technology was that with Skype you can run into all kinds of various problems. You have to test it first to make sure that it works. Scanning how to scan a document the proper way. Jing how to make a video of what is on your screen. Webcams how they work, why people use them.

How can this be used or is being used in my academic or personal life. Well Skype I really do not see myself using in my personal life at all. Academically I may use it to communicate with other students in my class. Scanning this I use rather frequently at home to scan various things into my computer. I can see myself using it also to scan things in for school if it was not already online. Jing this one is another one that I really do not see myself using personally. Academically maybe to show my teacher what screen I get but other than that I really do not see a use for it. Webcams this I do use in my personal life I use mine through yahoo so my husband can see me. Academically I really do not know how you would use a webcam other than to show someone what you have done or are doing.

How can it be used in your intended career or job? Skype can be used if we have to have a meeting with another office and they are really far away. Scanning, scanning a form into the computer after someone has filed it out, or scanning a blank form into the computer to make it available on the internet. Scanning stuff into the computer makes it so that the need for a paper trail is not needed. Jing this one can be used to show someone how to do something that they may not know how to do. Webcams this may be used so your boss can see you working or so the other office can see you.

What work will you do before next class? I will tweet, and post this blog and have a great spring break!!!!!
