I found an app on google chrome recently called Awesome Schreenshot. This extension allows you to take a picture of any part of your screen, or the desktop and let's you edit the picture in any way that you need to, right from the extension. You then have multiple options of saving it online somewhere, or saving it right to your computers drive. This is a mini photoshop through the Internet and could be a very useful too for me if I need to do explanations of a skill in a step by step fashion. I can take a picture of my screen at different points in a video so I can point things out to students by annotating the pictures and posting them on my LMS.

Week 8 PLN
3/9/17
I have been researching things for my presentation in the coming weeks and have come across the Google Chrome App called Google Keep. This allows a post it not type of thing to show up in the top right corner of the webpage where you can keep notes and such from something that you read online that will save directly to the drive. This is a great tool for use in research for students and I will be putting this into my presentation.

Week 9 Reflection

Tonight we got to hear Ashley C give her lesson on Schoology. Ashley was very well versed on the subject and made every effort to teach us as much as she could in the short amount of time she was allotted. I was impressed with the functionality of Schoology and would strongly consider using it if I were ever teaching solely a school Health Education course. The LMS does everything that Moodle does, and some things it does even better because it is a little easier to follow. I liked the types of quizzes you can create in Schoology and they are much easier to create than in Moodle. Ashley did a great job on her presentation and I am beginning to get a littel nervous for my presentation next week.

Week 8 Reflection
3/9/17
During this week's class, we did a lot of reflection typeso of activities where we had to share and examine things. We first looked over the presentation schedule and I saw that I was slotted in the second week of presentations. I feel like I will do well on my lesson, but I am a little nervous about it as I have never taught a lesson online before. I think everyone can say the same thing from our class. We then looked at a job posting for and Ed tech position and it mad me feel good knowing that once I was done with my degree I could potentially get a job in the field. Next, we shared PLN's and worked on an activity with Ted Ed. The activity helped teach us how to design a video and insert questions at end. During this class we also talked about our 10 question feedback form to see how things were going there. The general consensus was that we enjoyed having someone else's input on our moodles.

Upon looking at the TechTips blog that Dr Sponder gave the link to at the end of class this week, I found something called Symbaloo. It looks as if you can make a grid with any number of tiles that you want and can emded them directly onto a page in a website. This may be something that I incorporate into my Moodle at the top or bottom to keep all of my resources neatly in one place. I look forward to playing with this program in the coming weeks.

Week 7 Reflection
3/2/17
Tonight's class we shared our homework responses that had to do with the periodic table of technology. I shared my homework findings about Pinterest and found that there are so many game ideas that I have begun to integrate into my classes.We talked about how our brochures were coming and we were reminded that they are due at the beginning of class next week. Dr. Sponder then showed us Wikispaces and showed a quick tutorial of how to create one of those websites. We then signed up for presentation times and listed a 1st second and third choice. Lastly, we looked into online courses to take for free about different things that pertain to our areas of expertise./
