Moe in Digital Image Editing

Digital Imaging

I am about to begin the Digital Image Editing assignment and I am looking forward to learning many new tools. I have taken pictures with a digital camera and used editing software but I haven’t used it extensively. It will be fun to allow myself to take the time to play with the options.

I have wanted to use Google Docs for a long time now but I have never had others who wanted to use it too. I am eager to see the benefits that Google Docs has to offer. I can’t wait to get started.

Wordle

Wordles are so much fun. I tried these last year because one of the science/language arts teachers wanted me to teacher it during my computer class. The students used words from the books that they were reading and made a cover for their reports. The only problem that we could find with the program was that sometimes after the students typed all those words, they would accidently hit a key by mistake and the words would disappear. We decided that it would be safer to type the words on word first and cut and paste them into the document. After we figured that out, the students enjoyed making shapes and changing the style of their wordle.

Just the Beginning

My blog has been created as a place to get to know the students in EDTL 6820. You see, I am considered a visiting cohort at least I think I am. I am enrolled in the Teaching and Curriculum Master’s Program but I am taking this class because I needed 1 extra credit hour and I wanted to learn about Web 2.0.

Signing up for this course has already proven to be a good move. I’ve already learned where to find new tools and I will be able to pass what I learn on to the other teachers in my building. I can’t wait to discover more things to implement into my classroom this year.
