So far I haven't come across too many more challenges with the technology we have been using. I do anticipate once we start editing videos I'll be having a lot more difficulties. One thing I've noticed is that the more I work on building my website the easier it is to get the hang of. I've found that it's simple enough to just search around for a way to do something and generally there is a simple way for most of the actions I want to do.
One thing that we are doing in class is this blog. This is easy for me because I have been using Blogger on my own for about a year now and have been able to figure out things I like about it and things I don't like about it. One of my favorite things is being able to insert pictures and videos. And doing that is really simple! For the pictures just click the little pictures symbol next to where you insert a link and either search for the picture on your computer or on the web. Adding a video is done with the same process, it just takes longer to load. Adding pictures and videos is an easy way to make the blog more entertaining. Here's a video that I found that better explains the purpose and efficiency of Google Docs. Getting to know Google Docs Once the basics are understood it makes it a lot easier to use them for use as a teacher when we want to share ideas with other educators.
