Rosa Spring 23 EDIT4300

     As I reflect on my experience of this first semester in the program I can say that I am truly amazed I made it through and that I am very proud of all my accomplishments. I am espcially pleased with all the latest tech tools we learned. I know that these will be of use when I go out into the professional field. For this last assignment we were tasked with creating a Google site for our ePortfolio. The ePortfolio showcases all the assignments we completed in this EDIT4300 course as well as the EDIT4500 course. It is a wonderful way to highlight all our newly acquired skills, knowledge and accomplishments.       For my website template I decided to chose something clean yet bold, something that represents me and my work. I believe that sometimes less is more, hence my approach was minimalistic. I decided not to overcrowd the pages and chose a white background with a bold professional image for the banner. I stuck with one color scheme and used one f...

     For this module we were tasked with creating a Google Form Questionare and a Game/Puzzle. I had made a google form in the past when I was subbing during the pandemic and had to come up with quick and simple ways to quiz my students. What I liked about google forms was that it kept track of all the data which made grading stress free. Though I wish I would have known back then about these newer fun quizzing sites. I did try kahoot but for some reason the link it provided me didn't show me the quiz in the student's view, therefore I tried Quizizz instead. I have to stay it was fun viewing it as a student would because it had music and funny memes that pop up when you answer each question letting you know whether you answered correctly or incorrectly. Anyway, I am attching them for your viewing. Enjoy!  Google Form Quiz Game

      First of all, I want to say that I absolutely loved using Adobe Express for the video assignment. Though it was very limited in terms of what you can edit, for example the layouts, fonts, colors, transitons only had a set amount of each, roughly about 5 options. On top of that I was very hesitant because I had a terrible experience with it before when I created an Infographic. I think because I had so much information to add to it, and it created a layer for each new graphic or text it kept freezing. I definitely would not recommend it for dense projects but for the video it was so user friendly, easy to navigate and it even had a nice selection of music! It was definetely fun creating a video from pictures of our family, my kids defintely enjoyed it, plus it had been something I had been wanting to do for a while. 😊     The gradebook spreadsheets assignments were also engaging. I had a little bit of experience with Excel but these were not functions/form...
