•This program is a handy tool for recording screenshots or breaking down websites and sharing them with friends or family. It captures your screen, voice, and webcam to walk viewer through the users computer screen as he/she is talking over the mouse. I could use this to teach from a youtube lesson or khan academy video.

You can use Padlet in the classroom in various ways. If you are in a 1-to-1 situation, use a projector to show the class a bulletin board you create. Share the URL with the class and have students answer a discussion question, work on a "Do Now" activity, or even create an exit slip. It's also possible to use Padlet as a place to collect assignments; create a shared wall for your whole class and have students upload papers directly to the wall.

I enjoyed using the app because of its efficiency as a tech tool for educators as well as its fun, user friendly framework.

I can use a QR code to share business cards more easily with other professionals. The QR code can show more than just the traditional name, email, phone number, title, etc. IT can hold links to websites like LinkedIn, or business home page. It adds a more personal touch to the bland card.

Social media can allow students to access a variety of knowledgeable peers, parents, community members, children's literature authors, academics and other people who might not otherwise be available.

Teachers could have students answer assignments through blog posts. Then upload that post to twitter including a link to the website and a hashtag related to the assignment. The teacher and others in the class could leave feedback just by traveling to that hashtag page and clicking on the post.

Personal Introduction
James Rodney Chastain III

My name is James Chastain, and I am a senior finance major from Baton Rouge, LA. I am one of four kids in my immediate family. My Father, Sonny Chastain, is a lawyer and musician from Baton Rouge. He sings and plays guitar in the VTONES, a local cover band. My mother, Joan Chastain, is an incredible cook with her own catering company called Ingle Eats Gourmet Catering. My oldest sister is named Helene Chastain and she is an interior designer in Dallas, TX. My brother, Sam Chastain, is a sophomore finance major at LSU. He's currently spending this semester studying abroad in Hong Kong. My little sister, Lilly Chastain, is a sophomore at Saint Joseph's Academy in Baton Rouge. My two biggest passions in life are the culinary arts and vocal performance which I got straight from my parents. I love to sing and cook for friends whenever I get the chance. I enjoy listening to classic rock, mo-town, jazz, and a few other genres of music and my favorite cuisine is Cajun/Creole.
I intend to use this blog as a way of keeping track of my daily activities including academic work, extracurricular activities, and social functions. This will allow me to monitor my days and determine areas I want to improve upon, alter, or commit more time too. I also think this would be a great way for my of friends at the business college to communicate about upcoming events, assignments, job opportunities, etc. We could easily communicate via forum and post jobs, market research, career advice, etc.

I got an in depth look at the functionality of the apps pre-downloaded to the iPad. It taught me how to incorporate these apps into lesson plans in ways that I wasn’t expecting. Non-traditional uses really opened my eyes to the power of these apps and it even gave me a pretty certification to put on my resume.

I really enjoyed using keynote for our projects this semester. These projects was all about productivity, presentation, and publishing software and how each can be used to facilitate learning in the classroom. I came up with a scenario for each of the mentioned programs/tools in which a teacher could use to better communicate a lesson. The iPad gave us a fun way to shoot our movies around campus and conveniently move them to and from computers.

•My favorite app/tool we looked at was Evernote. This was a productivity app that, like google drive, allowed you access all documents, images, videos, or file of any sort from any device anywhere. It also had a calendar function that allowed you to create reminders for yourself of due dates, upcoming appointments, etc. You could create personalized notes from your device and use your own personal font. It’s a great app for staying productive and keeping files backed up.

•Publisher made creating the page layout of my brochure fun and easy. I could choose from some of the amazing template designs or create my own with its advanced design tools. I easily manipulated the inspiration map wording and placed it in the unique layout to achieve an eye popping handout.

•I built this inspiration map to give a visual image and organizational chart of my favorite web 2.0 tools and why I liked them. This helped me easily create my Brochure on the tools later on because all of my ideas were summarized around each tool it referred too.

•Although I enjoyed using Diigo to annotate parts of webpages I enjoyed and having them organized by tag, I preferred Symbaloo because it provided me with an icon of all my favorite sites all on one page. Having these apps so easily available gives me a much greater ability to surf the web for the information I want in a much quicker way. I even found sites I didn’t know about while searching categories for sites I knew I wanted. It’s a great tool for finding new resources.

•Google Sites is a structured wiki- and Web page-creation tool offered by Google. The goal of Google Sites is for anyone to be able to create a team-oriented site where multiple people can collaborate and share files.

•I created one based on my own personal information including a pdf of my resume, contact information, and a page on my passions and interests. Google was very user friendly and gave me a chance to make the website my own even though I used someone else's tool.

•Having a popplet to framework my slide as well as a browser based platform to edit my presentation from any computer, tablet, phone, etc. allowed me to effectively show my personal bio in a timely manner.

I thought the graphic organizer tools are a great combination of functionality and creativity. This learning tool provides a great way to effectively organize writing assignments, create stories, make outlines, etc. and do it in a fun and imaginative way. The fun designs and easy accessibility via download or browser make it a great resource.

Web cloud tools provide a great blend of artwork and storytelling. These are simple sites that combined technology and fun to make an easy and effective classroom tool, with complex shapes and the ability to create your own word font.

The real advantage of using these tools is that they allow students to construct the relationships between certain elements of a unit or lesson in their own creative way. Students can make out these correlations visually and save the maps for future use.

“A dream without a plan is nothing but a wish.”

Objectives differs from goals in the sense that they are measurable and specific. It actually quantifies the thoughts and sets a target so that the strategy can be planned around it. In other words, objectives are measurable steps an organization takes to achieve its goals.
