Prezi

I liked prezi a lot. I thought that it was easy to use and cool. It was easy to be creative in prezi because there are a lot of options and they all are unique. I enjoyed watching each slide that I made. I use keynote on my comuter at home because I have a mac but my parents have comuters with powerpint. I understand how to use both but they are still confusing with so many different options. Prezi is like almost every computer website or tool, it is confusing at first but once you get started and understand it becomes fun.

Computer Science Week

I did not like this project. I think that we could be doing something better with our time and education because this project was very frusterating and not rewarding. It was hard to understand and work with and when I figured it out, it was still annoying. I think that it was cool once it was done but not worth the amount of frustation put in. I would not like to do this project again in the future.

Using Glogster

Glogster is an amazing website. It will be very usful for me in the future. I love how they either give you a template or you can create your own. The only thing bad about Gloster is that on a computer you can attach links, but when it is printed you cannot. The other cool thing about Glogster is that it has tools where you can attach a youtube video and watch it right on the Glogster page. There are so many different designs and tools in Glogster. It has a fun and easy way to create a digital poster.

Thanksgiving Break

Over my Thanksgiving break my family and I went to Florida for 5 days. It is a tradition that my whole dads side of the family goes to Florida to visite my grandparents and spend Thanksgiving together. Since my dads side of the family is Jewish we celebrate Hanukkah even though we are Chistian. I don't mind celebrating Hanukkah with my cousins because we exchange gifts.
The weather this year unforunitly was not very good. The first day was nice but the rest was 70s, cloudy and rainy. While we were there we did not go to Disney or anything we just hung around my grandparents house and played games with our cousins. I had a very good Thanksgiving with all my family, I am so thankful for everyone who is in my life. I am blessed I got to go to Florida with my family for the holidays.

QR Article

I reseached QR codes and can up with atricle that talks about how criminals are using QR codes to hack other poeple and impose threats. QR codes can be fanastic and very useful but there are always down sides to technology. Unforunity, there are people in the world that will abuse the knowlege in the world today.

My QR Code Research

During my class time researching QR codes Heather and I made a poster with QR codes to the School News. We went on YouTube and took the link for each news. Then we made the links into QR codes using a generator online. Next we printed the QRs and put them onto a poster board with the date of the news. Heather and I hung the poster in the loby of the school so that students could scan the QR codes and watch the SHS News without a problem. This project not only benifited Heather and myself with our knowlegne of technology but it benifited the school. This was a fun project and I really enjoyed it.

My Opinion on QR Codes

I think that QR codes are a fast and easy way to access a website. I love that with QR codes it takes less than 5 seconds to scan a QR. QR codes act as a link but without the work of typing the whole URL. Heather and I made a poster for the school news and used a QR code for every news that went straight to YouTube. As QR codes become more popular, people are starting to use them in more creative ways. Business'  are using QR codes on their business cards, merchandise and advertisement. I think that QR codes are a great way to link the technology we have today with the real world. On cell phones there are multiple apps for a QR scanner. One of the best apps is i-nigma. All you do it hold your phone up to the QR code and i-nigma takes you straight to the link. It is also easy to make a QR code. There are many QR code Generators online. QR codes are going to become more popular as technology increases. Hopefully everyone will be formilar with QR codes in the future because they are very useful.
