Woordle2

Jeopardy Game

Here is my jeopardy game that I created. I created this game using questions related to the history of our country. I learned how to use labels in powerpoint and how to have them do certain actions when hit. I could use this type of assignment for anything where I could create a game or even use it other ways for anything you would use powerpoint for. I thought this was a fun assignment because it is something that I had never done before and could definately see myself using in the classroom.

PowerPoint animation

I created a one slide powerpoint showing the parts of a guitar. I created labels for a picture of a guitar and adjusted it so that you can select on a text box that says "show labels" and it will bring the labels up for you to view. Here it is. By doing this assignment I learned how to use the labels in powerpoint making them either make things appear or disappear. I could use this knowledge I have learned to do anything where I might have a map quiz or an anatomy quiz where something needs labeled. It would make it much easier to study using the hide labels so I can see how much I know about it and then show the labels to see if I was right.
The standards that this assignment covered:
-Facilitate and inspire student learning and creativity
-Design or adapt relevant learning experiences that incorporate digital tools and resources to promote student learning and creativity
-Communicate relevant information and ideas effectively to students, parents, and peers using a variety of digital age media and formats
-Promote and model digital etiquette and responsible social interactions related to the use of technology and information

Ignite Presentation

I did this power point on musky fishing. It has 15 slides and they automatically advance after 15 seconds. All you have to do is hit the start presentation button in the top right corner. Here is my power point. I learned how to create an ignite presentation in this assignment which is handy if your giving a powerpoint presentation and have limited time to do so. This powerpoint goes fast and keeps the attention of the viewers and would be great to use for a meeting.
