3rd Emergent Technology

The name of the technology you are exploring

Gliffy.com

A summary of the emerging technology

Gliffy is a website where you can "draw and share flow charts and diagrams online."

A personal testimony about learning to use the technology or the technology itself

The technology was very easy to use and easy to navigate. I was able to make a family tree in about 15 minutes with different colors, fonts, shapes, sizes, and borders.


Click on the photo and it will open a new tap and make it easier to read =)

I think I will definitely take advantage of Gliffy in the future.

This is my photo album I created. =)

LivingMemory - photo share

Living Memory is where you can upload photos, write stories about them, and tell stories about yourself. It also helps organize your pictures into albums of whatever you need or prefer. You can also make family trees, time-lines, moments and events.
The technology is very easy to use with plenty of links to click on and titled easily to understand. I choose to upload multiple photos which was quick and easy to do.

Podcast People

I Will Not Bow

This is the link to the podcast I made on Podcast People.

A summary of the emerging technology: With this technology you can share music, and videos, and also make your own videos and post them on the web. This technology would be use full to use if you are giving directions and tape your self so students could get online if they needed help.

A personal testimony about learning to use the technology or the technology itself: This website was also hard for me to use. I played around clicking random buttons and made what i could. It took me about 30 minutes just to make this podcast, but I am sure for someone who knows what they are doing it wouldn't take long at all.

Tips, suggestions, or visual aids that would assist in demonstrating the emerging technology: when you add a song or audio save it to your computer first, it is much faster.

The name of the technology you are exploring: Mixbook

A summary of the emerging technology : With mix book you can take your photos and make an actual book of them. It's like a photo album but instead of sliding the pictures in plastic they are printed right on the page. There are different layouts and backgrounds to choose from to make it unique.

A personal testimony about learning to use the technology or the technology itself : I think that this was the hardest site I tried. I couldn't figure it out at easily as the previous because there wasn't set steps on how to use it. But once i played around with it I figured it out quickly and it was easier to use.

Tips, suggestions, or visual aids that would assist in demonstrating the emerging techology: To put the pictures in the book you drag them over to it. If you dont want the picture in it you drag it back. It takes awhile to upload pictures so be patient.
