Garageband Blog Post

1. I used drag and drop to put in my pictures. Then, I used the sound effects provided in garageband, but I also put in a song from Itunes. I put the song in through garageband rather than dragging it in from Itunes.

2. I could use this in Literature class to discuss a book. This could also be used in World Studies to show different times in history.

3. You could use podcasts to tell about different events that are happening around town, which could be good publicity.

4. This project made me good at finding the perfect timing for the sounds and pictures.

5. For me the most difficult part was trying to incorporate all 5 of the sounds while still making sure that you could be clearly heard.

6. I would do a project like this. I think that podcasts are a very convenient way to learn other peoples opinions about different things, and they are a lot more lively than just reading a comment.

Storyboard Blog

1. The topic we chose was the House System. We chose it because we thought that it was a topic that incoming freshmen would be interested to learn about.

2. In the storyboard, we drew most of them on the computer, but we had two pictures that we used from the PND newsletter. We used them since we thought they portrayed the point we were trying to make well.

3. We used Google Docs to write all our ideas for the storyboard on. Whenever one of us had an idea we could add it on the doc since we could all collaborate on it.

4. The storyboard gave us a visual of how we wanted the movie to look, and how what we wanted to incorporate into the movie. The storyboard also helped us with how we wanted the order of the videos.

iPhoto Project

1. For the letters I searched 'letter __.' The rest of my pictures were mostly off my mac.

2. I learned how to make a slideshow using iPhoto. I also learned how to edit pictures using iPhoto.

3. I can use the skills I learned to make a video of my personal pictures. When I go on a vacation I can put them in iPhoto and edit some of the pictures and include music.

4. I prefered thie project rather than the other 2. I feel more independant with the project, but there were still directions that helped me along the project.

M&M Project

1. My spreadsheet found the sum and average of the M&Ms.
2. I used my skills in Excel such as using the formula bar.
3. I could use this if I am doing a survey. Each answer can be put in a different cell.

Buisness Letter

1. My business was Subway and my charity was the American Heart Association.

2. I used my skills with Excel that we learned in the M&M project. This project taught me how to mail merge.

3. The easiest part of this project was finding a charity because there are so many to choose from. Mail merge was the most difficult part because you needed to make sure you had no unnecessary spaces.

4. The skills that I learned I can use when I am writing a letter to a group of people. This will come in handy if I am having a party.

5. This project taught me how the different Microsoft programs are all connected.
