Journal – What is your favorite web tool that we have used in class so far this year? Why is it your favorite web tool? What do you like about it? How can you use it again in the future?

 My favorite web tool we have used so far is probably Prezi or the we used to make a infograph. They are my favorite because they are ones I have never used before and it allows me to do presentations a new different way. I can use it in the future with my other classes when I do presentations.

Journal: Tell me about your weekend.

 On Friday, I went to the Southwest game. WE BEAT THEM 47-3!! wow...they are obvii not good. I strongly dislike Southwest because they thing they are better than everyone. On Saturday, I went to the mall with my friends Lauren and Victoria and then I went to work. After work, I quit my job which was the best feeling in the world. Then I went to my friend Yasmins house. Then on Sunday, I went to church and went to the KC pumpkin patch and got a pumpkin.

Journal - What makes a presentation memorable? What makes a presentation stand out and not boring? How are you going to make your presentation better than anyone else? How will you make it unique? Explain.

Something that makes a presentation memorable is if they make eye contact with the audience and is smarter than whats on the screen. Also, if they give good information and has good tone in his/her voice. I will make my presentation better than everyone else's because I ill give good, valuable information. It will be visually appealing and fun to listen to.

Journal - What did you learn from the Ted Talk yesterday? Did you find it interesting or accurate? Explain.

 I learned how technology is impacting the world today and how we use technology for things that we aren't suppose to be using it for. It was both interesting and accurate because I find myself doing a lot of the things she was talking about.

Journal - What do you love about the "digital age" that we currently live in? What do you dislike about it? What are positives ways you use technology in your life? What are some things that come along with technology that you don't like? Explain.

 I do not like some of the selfies girls take and put on instragram. I also like how easy it is to get to social media and how it gives me something to do when I am bored. It is bad because it is used for things that it was not made for. Like cyber-bullying.
