Screencast Reflection

1. .      I think I did pretty well for being new to this technology. Even though it took me many times to make the recording right, it came out great in the end.
2.       Yes it should be very easy for the audience to complete the basic task I demoed.
3.          It was easy to use and navigate from page to page; the only hard thing was trying to make the recording perfect.
4.       f anyone needs to know about a program or website and I only have contact with them through the internet; then this is a great tool to help others out!
5.         It was fun to do and very easy to use!

Digital Story Bucket List

Emerging in Technology Part 1

My article was on the new innovation of the light field camera by Lytro. This camera is the first camera to be able to take a picture and be able to focus and move the picture after it is taken. The camera collects and stores light rays from all directions which captures the 3-dimensional image of the picture. Therefore you can take the image home and create it to become 3D.  I went to the website of the creators and looked at some pictures taken by the Camera and they were stunning. I have never seen anything like this camera before, and it is soon going to be in the pocket of every American. In the future they are hoping to make this possible with videos as well. So different angles, and focuses giving you 3D ability.

The technologies that were considered "emerging" are still being used. Such as the liquid battery which allows you to use solar power at night. Things are still being used but I believe that everything has become better and better as the years go on.

Online A Reflection

Technology is so important in our life today because it is used so widely every day. No matter what every corner we turn and everywhere we see technology is there. We can’t get away from it, the last five years have been years of innovation from the creation of the smartphone, tablets and better computers and gaming systems come out every year. In the next five years of technology is going to become even more complex, smart, and better. Paper will no longer be needed, everything will become digital. The technology that I use for school work can range from a computer, my iPod to listen to music, to a calculator. All of these things help homework go faster and easier. For personal use I use my iPod, TV and Xbox. Almost every day I use my iPod, and TV, but not the Xbox. The tools from Online a that I will use in the future are blogs, podcast, RSS feed and gadgets. A blog can be used all through high school and in college through groups for homework, classes, and sports. The most practical tool for lifelong learning would be the blog because everything else is going to pass and something else is going to be made in place of it, but the blog is going to improve and always have a way to post and connect with others. The tools I think that I will never use again would be the Avatars. This is because I never have the need to have a virtual me. My favorite tools to create were the Blog, and the igoogle. This is because I could personalize the page to how I wanted it to look. Lastly the tool that was my least favorite would be the avatar because they were hard to embed and record the voice for the avatar.
