M U LT I M E D I A I N T H E C L A S S RO O M

2. WHAT I LEARNED TO
USE
PICASA
 AUDACITY
ANIMOTO
JING

3.  When I initially started the first assignment , I was CLUELESS!
 Nevertheless, I fought through my fears and then out of trial and error, I
eventually figured out how to create a beautiful collage of special pictures.
 Once I figured out how to load the pictures into the PICASA program,
selecting a background and arranging my photos was a more user-friendly task.
 Sending the document was another challenge, but again, I was able to
navigate through and unravel that mystery as well. Had to keep telling myself
PICASA: A ROCKY START

4. In the end, I was able to create a lasting memory

5. YES! I HADTHE AUDACITY
TO DO THIS RECORDING

6.  In this assignment, we had to select a program where we
could do a voice recording. AUDACITY was
definitely the most user-friendly. I decided to create a “trip
reminder” which could be inserted on my webpage reminding
students of the DO’s and DON’Ts of the trip

7. THE NEXT
CHALLENGE!!!

8. THIS WAS BY FAR THE MOST
ENJOYABLE ASSIGNMENT
I had never heard of ANIMOTO until this class, and I
am now hooked. I created a commercial for the entire
school inviting the students and their families to
attend our Celebration of Culture event.
Overall, this had the least challenges and was the
most FUN!
I will be exploring with ANIMOTO more and more, in
and outside of the classroom.

9. JING
This was very challenging to
navigate through and with initially. I
had trouble with the technical part of
it, but after getting some FACE-
TIME help from my grade partner, I
was on the right track. I had a
HUGE AHA Moment while doing
this assignment. I’ve watched a lot of
Youtube tutorials and always
wondered how they got the arrow to
move around like that. NOW I know!

 I enjoyed the the layout of the class and how easy it was to
navigate through, topic to topic
 Collectively it was sometimes challenging to upload
assignments and I need more practice with that
 It was nice to be able to read posts of other students in the
class and read informative ideas and challenges that they
were able to share. (It’s nice to know others are having
some of the same challenges and we could help each other)
 The instructor’s enthusiasm and comments were helpful
