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!!!!!
