Blog Post #14 Final Reflection

Project #13

Google Docs


For our project 15 and 16, our group The Grey Wardens (which consisted of Emily Russell, Jay Shiver, and myself) utilized Gmail, Tumblr, Skype, and Google Docs. Personally, I liked Gmail and Google Docs the most. Gmail because it is the more traditional way as well as it is the easiest to get in contact with people. You can just send and email and know that eventually the recipient will see it. However, other things like Skype you would have to schedule a time where everyone can meet and it just becomes hectic. Also, with Google Docs the whole cooperative aspect of these assignments were a lot simpler. We could all make work on the assignments as a team without having to worry about trying to meet up and always having someone carry around a flash drive that could get lost. All we had to do was log on. I've actually grown quite fond of Google Docs and use it in my other classes as well.

Final Project #16

Tumblr Logo


Using the website Tumblr, we, The Grey Wardens (Emily Russell, Jay Shiver, and Rodney Patrick) have built a PLN that any teacher or student can turn to for ideas and tools they can use in the classroom, and we have done it in a way that attempts the kind of writing with multimedia project that Richard Miller talked about in This is How We Dream.
