Multimedia in

the ClassroomErika Dobson

Summer 2010

Using Images and

Photography I used Picnik to edit my photographs. I

found this program to be very user friendly unlike Flickr. I paid the extra money to upgrade to be able to use all of the programs features. To share my edited photos I tried Photobucket. Photobucket was also very easy to maneuver through. Please view my pictures:

Using Audio and Web Stream

Voice Thread is a tremendous tool to share images, documents, and videos. I felt the tutorial for the program gave step-by-step directions. I enjoyed commentating for the first time. Please check out my debut at:

Animoto turns photographs into video

slideshows in minutes. I couldn’t believe

how is easy Animoto was to use. Adding

music truly customized my video. An

added plus is that Animoto promises to

never make two videos alike!

Posting Original Videos

I used Windows Movie Maker Live to make

a home-made video from photographs. Of

all my projects this ended up being my

favorite. It was truly enjoyable adding

music and adding cool effects to my

pictures. To share my movie I used You

Tube. Please check out my movie at:

Online Learning

This is the second course that I took online

with Rich. I must say, that the second

time around things went much smoother.

Purchasing a new computer allowed me

to ease through my assignments. In

addition, I was familiar with the moodle so

I was a lot more confident. I am so proud

of all my work and the best part is I have a

lot of family keepsakes!
