The document discusses several technologies used to construct a blog and product, including:
Blogger, which allows setting up pages for research, planning, construction, and evaluation. Prezi is described as similar to PowerPoint for stylishly setting out information. SoundCloud is for recording and uploading audio. GoAnimate allows creating animated presentations with speaking animals. Survey Monkey makes online surveys simple to create and distribute without paper. Photoshop was used to construct music magazine pages and required getting used to. PowToon allows animating presentations as an alternative to solely using PowerPoint. Infogram was found to be a quick and easy way to visually present information without video.
1. WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNT ABOUT
TECHNOLOGIES FROM THE PROCESS
OF CONSTRUCTING THIS PRODUCT?
Question 6
2. This was the very first piece of technology that we used because
we were setting up a blog.
Blogger allows us to set up all the different pages that we would
be needing.
There is a clear layout of the Research, Planning, Construction
and Evaluation pages.
I have found Blogger very easy to use and I like how simple and
effective it is in showing all my work
3. This is similar to a powerpoint.
It allows you to set out your information in a stylish way.
I found Prezi quite confusing to use in the beginning but after a
few tries, I was able to get used to how it worked.
4. This is where you record yourself talking and upload it to their
website.
You can make it private so that no one, unless they have the web
link can access it.
I found Soundcloud very easy to use as you just had to press the
record button and then upload it.
5. This is where you can create an animation and you can make the
animals speak your information out loud.
I had a few struggles in trying to get GoAnimate to work but
eventually it worked and was very straight forward and easy to
use.
6. This allows you to send out your survey without having to post it
to the houses, it is all online.
You can specify the answers to be multiple choice or written
answers.
I found that Survey Monkey was one of the easiest type of
technology that we used as it was simple, easy to work and you
didn’t have to do much to get it uploaded.
7. This was used for the construction of my music magazine pages.
This was quite tricky to get used to, but the more that I used it, the
easier it got.
8. This allows you be able to animate your presentations.
It is a good way to show your work without having to draw
everything on from powerpoint.
I found this quite straight forward to use so I was able to make this
quite quickly.
9. This is a quick and easy way of showing information without
having the trouble of making a video.
I found this really simple and easy to use although I did have to try
it a few times before it was correct.
