Learning Journal 4

Learning module four discusses about our recent projects that reflect how current users of technology display presentations for businesses. The tool Glogster helps create presentations to present to other people. The tool was very easy to use and also organizing our train our thoughts was quite simple. I also felt that I could of wrote a lot more than I put down due to the fact that the display of the program should of been much bigger. For my presentation, we discussed how "YouTube" plays a huge role in the world today. Most people don't realize that in a society we live in today have low attention spans in which visuals are much easier to comprehend than someone else just talking. The video below displays how to setup a account as well as how to use Glogster correctly.             


Other people's projects were very presentable as well. They used applications such as Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Skype etc. Most of those tools I use on a daily basis to promote my business. People used demographics, videos, pictures and hyperlinks to help present. My group personally used Jing in order to discuss our project. We thought it was easier to capture our screen and show people what you can actually do instead of just talking about it just to grab the audiences attention.Here is an example.  http://astogner19.edu.glogster.com/youtubeglog
