Day 13 Skype, Post PPT video to YouTube, Blog, Wiki, Webquest

Day 13
I was late today so I missed the Skype session from Chile! Nancy filled me in a little. Fortunately, there will be another Skype session. At least I got my insurance and payroll deductions taken care of . I also got a chance to take care of my business at the Credit Union.
In our morning session we learned how to create an online movie from a narrated Power Point. I have created my first YouTube video and we watched it in class!

Cutting in Arts and Crafts went more smoothly today. I still have about 7 shapes to cut but I think I've found the knack for cutting away the extra parts. 

After Arts and Crafts - we learned that the main difference between Blog  and Wiki is that Blog is an individual tool whereas Wiki is a collaborative tool.

The final topic was how to create a WebQuest. We named our Foreign Language group 'Las ExploraDORAs'.  Get it?  "Dora" the "Exploradora?" Anyway our WebQuest is started. The task will be to make trading cards for a musical artists during Hispanic Heritage month. The finale will be a role-play lip-sync contest where the group members stage a performance by the artist. A 'panel' will judge the performers and select a winner.

Hasta maƱana.
