5/9 Senior Final Exam Blog Post


I am very glad that I didn't take this as an online course. The teacher was very nice and willing to answer any and all questions I had along the way. Naturally I am not the most graceful with computers, but Mrs. Peres helped guide me gracefully through my troubles. I have learned how to create professional looking website using tools such as Blogger and Wix, as well as to succeed in a primarily tech based class. I will defiantly use the information that I learned in this class in the future. PowerPoint presentations are the typical way to create presentations. I have learned how to use Prezi earlier this year, and I think that it will really something extra to my projects in college. However, I did learn new ways to personalize my PowerPoints to make them more unique than the norm. I learned how to create my own template to make a large and more interesting impact with my presentations. Using these skills and others, I think that it will set me apart from the rest of my future classmates, who might choose to use PowerPoint in it's most basic form. Other tools I will for sure return to are using LucidPress to create things like greeting cards, social media headers or personalized thank-you notes. I think that you as a teacher give great and timely feedback, which I greatly appreciate. You seem to connect with your students on a real level which is something that I can't say for all teachers in this school. I'm going to keep track of your email because I think that you will be a valuable resource for keeping my up-to-date with the latest technologies, because on my own I wouldn't know where to start! Thank you for letting be work at my own pace because that is the best for me personally. You are a wonderful teacher and are doing an amazing job! Have a good rest of the year and an amazing summer.

5/4 Website Reflection


I had a lot of fun with this project because we were able to express creative freedom in design and topic choice. The theater department at this school is something that I have been a part of for all four years of high school, and even when I was not in an acting class, I still participated in numerous shows through technical theater. I thought it was relatively easy to create a final product that I was proud of, minus the hiccup at the end with finding my missing menu bar.

The websites that I liked the most belonged to Cole C, and Niki's. I liked Cole's because it looks like he put a lot of effort into making his website both knowledgeable and well put together visually. He picked a topic that was not necessarily about a club he was in, but he found something that he was passionate about, and that was defiantly apparent. Niki picked the same topic which I thought was cool. She picked the title "Love our planet" which grabbed my attention. The moving ocean at the bottom of the page was a creative and unique touch that really made it personal.
