1/30/17 Ted Talk- Technology

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1R59Qf3bTcAz44prHOpTFq94Bezq7GE4QT8jP65QJm-o/edit?usp=sharing



I would say i agree with this tedtalk. it was very true and i believe that our generation has become slightly disconnected with reality because of technology. I love technology and social media and the way i can connect with my friends and others but i think its important to know your limits and interact with the real world a lot more than the cyber world. To know people and go outside and enjoy nature is so important but now with technology you can literally do any of that on the phone or computer and i think that is very bad. GO OUTSIDE AND SMELL THE ROSES

1-31-17 Words for a teenager

I think this is a bit harsh. I agree with some of this and reading the beginning makes me feel motivated and really want to go out and create my own fun! I think that Its important to know you are in control of the way you feel and your actions, but i feel like the man who wrote this is kind of mean and it hurt my feelings when he called me (the reader) a cry baby. I do agree that us as humans are very important and need to remember that we all are needed:)

I would say I do have different view in social bookmarking now because I really know what it is now and I have seen the positive and negative sides of it! It can help you a lot as far as marking your recently visited sites and share your favorite pages with your friends. On the down side though it can also be really unreliable as far as what sites your visiting and who is posting and sharing it with you because sometimes people can post a lot of false information. I do think social bookmarking is very helpful if you choose to use it with the right purpose. I think that I am going to start using chrome on my computer at home to bookmark my favorite sites and make folders for school, shopping, and other important things to my everyday life to make my electronic life a little bit easier.

1/26/17- Chrome vs Symbaloo

Throughout my long experience with bookmarking and symbaloo, i think that i prefer to use bookmarking because i personally dont use that many different sites. So just having the 4 or 5 main sites i use at the top of my browser is very helpful! If you are a person who uses multiple sites everyday then i think that symbaloo would benefit you much more!

1/24/2017 social bookmarking

Social bookmarking is a tool used for computer users to be able to save an often visited page for easy access. Its a perfect way to store and organize important websites that you will need to go back to. On my Mac laptop at home, it bookmarks all my frequently visited sites so I can get to them very easy! It bookmarks pages like Netflix, Soundcloud, Youtube, google drive and the blue valley high home page. I use Instagram as my main social bookmarking website usually on the daily. I really enjoy sharing my photos and videos with my friends and have a lot of fun doing it! I learned about all the social bookmarking tools i use through friends and family when i was younger and have adapted to it very well! I think social bookmarking is cool.😌

1/17/2017 - Prezi Reflection

After using both Prezi and Powerpoint I would definitely have to say that i prefer to use the traditional Power point. I personally think that Powerpoint is much more simple to use because most of our generation has grown up learning how to use Powerpoint as a primary way to present things in our schooling environment. I think that Prezi is great for presentations like "All about me" or something fun but Power points are much better and more efficient for learning and teaching lessons because they are simple and easy to follow with out becoming distracted on making it look cool. I think that next time I create a presentation I will use power point because I am more comfortable with it and know all the ins and outs with powerpoint. I think for me, that powerpoint is the much easier and safer route to take!
