My Graphic

Today I showed the many different ways to save your work not only to a jump drive but also on the internet. This relates to ISTE standard 2b which says the student will develop technology-enriched learning environments that enable all students to pursue their individual curiosities and become active participants in setting their own educational goals, managing their own learning, and assessing their own progress. This helps the student to learn that they can save there work to many different places on the internet rather than have to rely on a jump drive. Physical storages are nice to have in the fact you can carry them with you when you go place but the weackness to physical storage is you can break or lose them. The nice part about virtual storage is there a many place to save your work and you will never lose it but you do have to have internet access to get to it.

Using Jing

In todays class we learned how to use a program called Jing. We used Jing to capture an image and annotate the image. I chose an image of a motorcycle. Here is my link to that image Sport Bike.  This program is very useful because you can not only capture and image but you can also add text and drawings to the image for your benefit.

Image using snipping tool

We learned how to use the snipping tool today and I decided to snip a picture of a soccer player. This activity relates to ISTE standard 2a to incorporate digital tools and resources to promote student learning and creativity. We used this standard by snipping a digital picture from google and posting the picture on my blog.
