My name is Dante César Budano, I am 22 years old and this is my New Technologies portfolio!. When I signed to attend this subject, I expected to learn new tools I could use to teach my future students, and make their learning process not only much more easier and faster, b ut also entertaining as well. I started getting in touch with English since I was 7, whn my Dad brought a PC at home, and I played videogames which all were in English. My hobbies are; Playing videogames, listening to music, learn new stuff, play music (I am a Clarinetist since 2007 as well). 
I chose that song because it inspires me to be creative, as I let my mind set free (I also reccommend you guys to listen Camellia´s songs! They are a banger!)]]> 2022-06-27 15:26:07 UTC https://padlet.com/Dante_Cesar_Budano/purigjzopzv7a13q/wish/2231562214 Dante_Cesar_Budano https://padlet.com/Dante_Cesar_Budano/purigjzopzv7a13q/wish/2231574065 The first assignment we had was creating a PLE. I made it too simple, so I had to redo it, here´s the final result!

This is mine!

As I play the Clarinet, I decided to make one about how to take care of the Instrument!

A podcast is only an audio which tells as story, or it can be an interview you hear on the radio. A slidecast, however, its an audio which contains a group of images that describes the audio (I.e. In a story, the audio tells the story and the images describe the moment). Lastly, a Video is a multimedia presentation, this means its audio with moving images/edited images (I.e. a gameplay). I cant updload neither the podcast and slidecast, so I´ll upload the video instead! (Podcast made with Audacity, Slidecast made with PowerPoint and Video made with Camtasia Studio 8.1)
PS: I do have a Youtube account with A LOT of videos if you are interested!]]> 2022-06-27 15:59:27 UTC https://padlet.com/Dante_Cesar_Budano/purigjzopzv7a13q/wish/2231588679 Dante_Cesar_Budano https://padlet.com/Dante_Cesar_Budano/purigjzopzv7a13q/wish/2231598983 The following task was creating a list of activities about a topic we would choose and explain its purposes and objectives. I had to fix some issues, so here is the final version of them!

I chose a rubric about a video-making activity. This is my result!

A WebQuest is a document in which you will have a couple of ativities blended eachother, leading to the grand final (I.e. If you will teach about history, you can make a WebQuest orientated on a treasure hunt). I made it about VGM (VideoGames Music). Hope you like it!

I chose making a Wheel-of-fortune-like game, in which they have to answer a couple of questions, referring to different subjects.

I am happy I attended this subject, not only because I love technology, but also because it helped me to get in touch with new websites and apps which I have never visited/used before. Some of them are easier to use than others (I.e. Canva is an amazing website), but I enjoyed it from the beggining until the very last day of this subject.
Pros and Cons:
Pros;
-You learn new tools to use at clas to teach students in an easier, faster and effective way. Students love games or interactive activities.
-You get in touch with different teachers across the globe whose tell you their experiences, so you can take notes to improve yourself and your classes as well
Cons;
-Students will pay much more attention to technology-made activites rather than physical ones (Like photocopies, books, etc)
-There are not many EDUCATIONAL orientated games out there, and the ones that exist cost a lot of money (I.e. Minecraft Education edition, you have to pay not only the game, but the monthly maintance of the servers)
-Students may not have the required tools to make their homework (I.e. Internet connection, the games you used in class, phones,good PCs)

To sum up, there is A LOT of tech tools you can use to enrich your classes and make your students focus more on their learning process, but at the same time they will get easily distracted by them. you have to be very careful on which moments will be tech and which ones will only be physical.
I really enjoyed making this Portfolio, tysm for taking a look!
See you next time,
