Presentations Day One

03.23.15 After watching the presentations today, the tool I think I would most likely use is Audiopal. The multiple options of means of recording your audio seemed interesting and easy and it seemed easily exportable. She did mention, however, that she was unable to upload to audio onto her WordPress site, so that would be […]

Peer Review

03.20.15 What I Heard: My concern going into peer review was my tone when talking about the constraints in my web essay. I ran into a lot of constraints on my tool, MASHER, and found myself frustrated with the tool at times. It was reassuring to hear from Miranda that my tone sounds professional and […]

Mash Mash Mash

03.18.15 What I Did: Since last class I have continued to explore the tool and organize my ideas, primarily focusing on the affordances and constraints of the tool. I have been looking for the best parts of the tool because I feel like I have been forming a bias against the tool due to all of […]

The Exploration Continues

03.16.15 What I Did: Today I continued to reflect upon and dive into the advantages and disadvantages of MASHER as a video-editing/creating program. I watched the demo video provided by the site to see if I missed anything in the editing process and learned about some of the coming features of the site. I continued […]

Over Break…

03.16.15 What I Did: Since my last post (and I missed the last post due to extensive traveling – it really was planes, trains, and automobiles plus a snow storm) I have explored my tool, MASHER, and taken notes on the advantages and disadvantages of the program by making an example video on this video-editing […]

Example Essay

03.02.15 In reading the review of Editorially, I learned and thought about a lot for my own project and review of a tool. The main thing that stood out to me in this essay was the focus on the negative aspects of similar tools; I felt that the author talked down other projects with no […]

To Choose or Not To Choose…

02.27.15 Over the past few days I have been playing with the different tools that were options for Project 3. I decided on MASHER, a video editing application. I haven’t done much video editing in my life, only basic things for school projects and such, but it is a skill I would like to improve […]

Awkward Autocorrect

02.23.15 I don’t usually pay attention to autocorrect unless it is making a mistake. Most of the time I rely on it for basic corrections, such as adding apostrophes in words like “don’t” or “couldn’t” when I am feeling lazy. I also use it when I can’t figure out how to spell a word – […]

Whoops!

02.06.15 What I Did: I was looking back through my blog posts, preparing to submit my Web Portal, and realized I was missing one from February 6th! Whoops! This was a day we worked on the appearance of our blogs. I continued to play with themes and explored colors and headers. I decided not to add […]
