... Last week I started my AS ICT course at Dubai British School, which I was mega excited for. I do believe ICT is the future.
So... my first task was "Facebook in Education" and how I can explain it to the class and the teacher.And at the moment, Facebook is not blocked at our school, and I had to almost persuade the teacher to not block it. Our teacher, Mr Wood, who is very enthusisatic about new programs, showed us prezi.com - a presentational tool. I checked it out, did some tests and loved it. Thought it was so much better than PowerPoint, which looks boring, and has no templates to create a presentation quickly.
I started researching the history of Facebook, and the owners if it. I then searched for videos, and found a really good basic description of Facebook, which is actually the trailer for a new movie that's coming out in October, about Mark Zuckerberg and the making of Facebook.
I found more info, and pics I could use; to give my classmates a visual example, not that they need one... everyone has Facebook :-P
So I put all the information I found, on a prezi canvas, and created frames, and transitions, that would make my final piece look nice and would also catch my classmates eyes... so that they don't zone out.
I hope I achieved that...
:-)
what else?
My presentation is now somewhere on YouTube, as my teacher filmed me... haha.
Well... this is it for today :-)
