Journal - What photo editing tool(s) have you used so far on your 5 photos project? Do you like the tool? Is it easy to use? Hard to use? What's good about it? Whats bad about it? Give a detailed review of the tool.
My favorite too that we have used so far is pixlr.com. I like it because it has multiple effects that I can use and it is very easy to try them all. You can just slide the effect on and it will preview what your picture will look like. The only thing I don't like is that you cant fine tune the brightness or the contrast.

Journal - What are the pros and cons to photo editing? What are some examples of when photo editing is fun and appropriate? When can photo editing be inappropriate or too much?
Photo editing will allow you put effects, and tweak your pictures so that they look better. You can also use different websites or applications to try and find which one you like best. When someone goes on a vacation, and takes a picture, but its too blurry or dark, you can bump up the contrast or brightness and try to get it to look more clear to the audience.

Journal – What is your favorite web tool that we have used in class so far this year? Why is it your favorite web tool? What do you like about it? How can you use it again in the future?
My favorite web tool that we have used so far is Prezi. I think that Prezi is a great way to present text, and keep it entertaining for the audience. I can see myself using it in the future when I have to present a topic to an adult audience. I like its different themes that suit certain topics, I like the transitions between slides and even how it saves online, so you can present it anywhere you are.

Journal- Tell me about your weekend, what did you do?
On Friday, I went to the game, even though it was freezing and raining the whole time. I left at half time because I couldn't stay any longer. On Saturday, I went over to a bonfire, and we roasted some marshmallows. Halfway through the night, the fire started going out, so we had to try and keep it going.

Journal - What makes a presentation memorable? What makes a presentation stand out and not boring? How are you going to make your presentation better than anyone else? How will you make it unique? Explain.
What makes a presentation memorable is when the presenter projects his voice and uses eye contact. If you look around in the audience, and do not just stare at your power point, it will capture the audiences attention. If you make flashcards or have a few notes in front of you, it will make the presentation way better. Another idea is to project your voice. If you talk loudly and confidently, it will make the audience interact and listen to your presentation much more.

Journal - What did you learn from the Ted Talk yesterday? Did you find it interesting or accurate? Explain.
The Ted Talk that we watched yesterday was very relatable. It was supporting the theory that eventually, the newer generations will not know how to communicate face to face. I found it very accurate, I know people who are not great in person, and are much more comfortable over text. She said the cause of this, is because people are hiding from each other behind a screen. Even in high priority situations, people will pull out their phones to check social networks so that they will not feel alone.
