I am not quite done with power point 2 yet, but it will be completed before class tomorrow. As I stated in my previous blog, Power Point is new to me. I am having an adventurous time exploring new tools and learning ways to enhance my presentation. Deciphering between extremes in animations seem to be a problem. I don't want my Power Point Presentation to be too elaborated with animations and visual, but int he same instance I want everyone to enjoy the presentation. That seems to be my only problem. I cannot include a screen shot of my Power Point because I do not have the program on my computer.

The digital Camera seems to be popular now and I think it would be great to incorporate as an art project. I know everyone is not able to afford a camera, which is why I am going to purchase one for my class. The camera is not dependent on the computer, however if you want to post the pictures you need the computer. Sometimes students need a broke and I think an activity with the camera will be fun and exciting for the students!

I know this may be a fairly simple lesson, but I learned to listen. When I was presenting my Power Point in front of the classes, the smallest things distracted me, even when students leaned over to whisper. When the next classmate was up presenting, I noticed that she was distracted as well by the commotion around her, so I decided to give my undivided attention because I know how it feels. I think this will help to listen to my students more and be more cautious and attentive when others are speaking because its rude to not respect their time and presentation.
