More of what i've learned in tech!

Recently I have learned that you can do almost anything with a spread sheet and on a google spread sheet you can have the computer average numbers in columns for you, so we don't have to do it by hand :)

More of what I've learned about in Tech

Recently in class we made a live spread sheet/surey that works, which is one new thing I learned. Also, I found that I didn't do my spreadsheet right at first, I didn't put it in the right folder and it didn't get shared with everyone. In addition, I have learned how to post a live webpage on my blog!

A blog I found! :)

So I was searching blogs that had to do with Konad nail design, because I really like to do my nails with Konad and I found this really cool blog called "Konad Addict". By a 17 year old girl named Maria. She has a bunch of nail tutorials and ideas on how to do your nails.

5 new things I have learned on blogger

When we first started using blogger in class I didn't even have a clue what blogger was. Now, I have become more familiar with it. Here are 5 amazing things I have learned about blogger since the first day of the school year.

  1. I have learned how to subscribe to other peoples blogs. I thought I was doing it right at home, until I got to class.
  2. I have also learned how to format my posts. Such as, changing fonts, changing font sizes, font color, adding bulleted lists, etc.
  3. Another thing I have learned is how to add gadgets to my blog. There are a bunch of gadgets to choose from like a clock, calculators, and even a fish tank.
  4. I have also learned how to add a video and picture to my blogger posts.
  5. Finally, I have learned how to set up a blogger account. I wouldn't have known how to do this before this class.
Here is a video of a lady who loves cats.... To say the least! Haha! Enjoy!

You can speak your homework!

Yesterday, I was trying to do my Speech and Debate homework on my iPad, and knew that it would take me a little longer than usual since it's a bit harder to type on the iPad. However, I found a really neat and efficient way to do my homework with only using my voice and one key on the keyboard. The iPad has a voice dictation feature that enables you, when you have Internet access, to just hit a button and speak what you would like to speak. Now, you may think is is inefficient because you can't add punctuation, however, all you have to do is speak in what punctuation you want inserted. For example, you can speak, "I love creamy comma milk chocolate." and it will appear as "I love creamy, milk chocolate." so if you have an iPad, try voice dictation if typing is a hassle for you. This tool really helped me! :)

Here is the promo video describing it and her is the video of the event when apple unveiled their amazing new product. Also you can go here to read about it if you don't have time for the videos.

What I Know and What I Want to Know

What I know about technology

Some things I know about in technology include working with Word, PowerPoint, going on the Internet, and using Facebook. I have also worked some with iMovie. In addition, I have taken the web design class that has been offered at RHL so I know a little bit about making web pages, though for some reason computers never seemed to cooperate with me in that class.

 

What I want to learn about in technology this year

This year I would like to get to explore a bit more with making web pages so that it can become easier for me. In web design I was able to create web pages, but it was quite difficult and there always seemed to be a glitch with my page that no one could figure out. Also, it would be cool to get to learn about different technology that I can use to help me with my homework.
