Journal- What is your favorite web tool that we have used in class so far this year? Why is it your favorite web tool? What do you like about it? How can you use it again in the future?

               I like to use Prezi in class for presentations. It is my favorite because there are many things you can be created with. And it's not just an ordinary powerpoint. I just like how the slides are set up. They are round and you can move them anywhere on your background.  The backgrounds are also really cool on Prezi. I could use Prezi again to make another presentation.

Journal- Tell me about your weekend.

                On Friday, I went to the Blue Valley game. They played Blue Valley Southwest, and they weren't very good. We were winning 41 to 3 when I left in the 3rd quarter. Then on Saturday I watched some college football and I had a basketball workout to go to. On Sunday, I had two basketball games with the high school at Blue Valley West. We won one and lost one. Then I came home and went to someones house to watch the Chiefs. The Chiefs won and we are 7 and 0.

What makes a presentation memorable? What makes a presentation stand out and not boring? How are you going to make your presentation better than anyone else? How will you make it unique? Explain.

               Their are many things that make a presentation memorable. One thing that has to happen is the content has to be interesting and make you listeners actually pay attention to your presentation. If you have a lot of pictures and you pick a good theme of your presentation, then your presentation will stand out. I'm going to make mine better than other peoples because it will be unique. It will have pictures and will catch the listeners attention to make it unique.

What did you learn from the Ted Talk yesterday? Did you find it interesting or accurate? Explain.

                I learned some things from the Ted Talk yesterday. I found the Ted Talk was very interesting. One thing that I learned was to not let technology take over my life. Their are a lot of skills that will help you out if you communicate and interact with people around you.. I found the Ted Talk was very accurate. I think this presentation was pointed mostly at kids ages 12 to 23 because at this age I feel like kids are on their phone a lot. And they feel like they have to be because everyone else is.

 What do you love about the "digital age" that we currently live in? What do you dislike about it? What are positives ways you use technology in your life? What are some things that come along with technology that you don't like? Explain.

               Technology helps us with a lot of things in this day and age. Technology has changed the whole school life in schools. You can not always rely of technology though. That is one bad thing about it.  You never know when something is going to go wrong. Technology can be used to write papers and do research for school or a job. I really don't dislike any technology. If you don't know how to work something, then it is easy to get frustrated with technology.
