Inspiration

I found this Inspiration project to be pretty easy to use. I can see myself using a project like this in the classroom; I think students could use it too. I love the rapid fire feature, so you can just rattle off whatever comes to you and then rearrange it later. The possibilities are endless with the way you can change up the look of your presentation. I can think of a million ways to use this program! I really think it could be a very useful tool in the classroom. This may be my second favorite project, after the wikis :)

Digital Scavenger Hunt!

For this assignment, we went on a search for verbs. To make my presentation slightly more interesting (I didn't want it to just be a list of verbs and photos illustrating them), I decided to explain how a verb can change the entire sentence. I found google presentation very easy to use. I feel it will be very useful in the classroom; teachers can use it to create presentations, but it is easy enough for student use as well. I think this assignment as a whole will be something I may use in my lesson planning in the future. Scavenger hunts can be fun for students, especially if they can share it with their classmates via a presentation.
