Final Reflexion- Arianna A, A4

Throughout this whole year, I have learned quite a bit in Internet. I learned things much like Safety throughout the web searches, presentations over career positions, igoogles, advance searches, voicethreads, DIIGO, and other related activites. When taking the time to do each, I have now gained research skills to use on the web when looking up or researching a particular item or thing i may be unterested in following through or pursuing. I've learned by making an igoogle, you must have created a gmail in order for the process to work sucessfully. Once you have just created yourself the account, you can look up and research different games or apps for your homepage, that you may be interested in or become found of. I chose thing much like the espn updates on football, baseball, basketball scores that are going on all throughtout the world, that way you know what games are being played at what times, and who the opposing teams will be. More apps i recieved were small things like love quotes, quotes of the day, reminders from God, your horiscope, games, and much more.
When looking up and taking the time to search advance searches online, it may consist of things much like google maps, internet safety, bullying/cyberbulling, comparing idealistic animals to each other and what the results will end up being and much more. The internet is a very important research tool that will help you find necesssary information, facts, pictures, maps, presentatoins, documents, you name it, the internet can do it all. This is why the internet is a very important tool when looking up such things like advance searches.
At first, you may have thought, ok, this voicethread thing isn't really working out for me,this is what my first impression was, but once you know and become familiar with the idealistics of the program, you will become very fond of it. When making a voicethread, you can start out by choosing whatever topic you may want to research on. Once you have found that, start on making a presentaion over it through a document. Make any necesary corrections and possible information needed. Once you have finished with your information, facts, notes, you may proceed with the "voicethread" part. You install the earphones, and press record going over and talking about any necessary information that needs to be stated throughout the presentation. Go over and correct and mishaps or mistakes, and keep reciting it until you get it right. Now, that you have finished it, send the document to Mr. Stevenson through an email, and he should then grade your work.
When using the online internet, of course you have to become found of using google. Google holds many tabs and different necessities that you can research. On google docs you can create presentations, documents, and much more. When making presentations, its the same as making any other typical type of presentation on Word. But there contains slight differences; you have click on a tab to create or pull up a new slide, save pictures under word to pull them up through google docs to show it. And find different ways of using things rather than taking the easy way out.
When making a DIIGO account, it consists of being able to make new friends, making bookmarks, creating and editing your page, add pictures, and many more fun things to do while making an account through DIIGO.

Some days we are able to have a free day, catch up on work, homework, or even just play games. I enjoy days like these because its nice kicking back and just relaxing, although its good to learn new things each day.

Throughout this year in Internet, i have definitely learned a lot. Props to Mr. Stevenson, I have learned many uses, skills, and research sources for the internet. I plan on learning a lot of new things next semester as well.
