Professional Pictures (My Look)

In this image, a big NFL player is jumping for the touchdown with two other players chasing him. If I could smell that picture, I would smell the foul odor of sweat. If I could hear this image, I would hear shouting and yelling from the crowd. The emotion it raises is a competitive, determined emotion. The image does not show the man's face very clearly. I have never been to an NFL game before and I have never had an experience that relates to this image. I've played golf though...

      In this image, it shows a matador glaring at a bull. The matador looks tired. I would probably be able to hear the bull scraping its hooves on the ground. An emotion that this image evokes would be determination. The matador looks determined to finish the bullfight off successfully. The picture does not show the crowd in the background. I have never seen or been in a bullfight and I never want to see one of those horrid shows, I find them disgusting.


          In this image I see a woman who is holding off a group of police that are coming into her village when she doesn't want them to. The woman's face is showing that she will succumb to the force of the group of men, they will break through soon. One sense that I would feel would be the heat of that country, it looks very hot there. One emotion this image evokes would be sympathy. I feel sorry for the woman, she really doesn't want these police coming into her village. The picture does not show the actual village or at least most of it. I have never had an experience like that woman did, I have never held off a group of police in my life.



      
                  I think that this image is worth a thousand words because it is really cute and funny. I found it here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/81909760@N00/4253655700


              I think this image is also worth a thousand words because it is, again, very cute and is amusing. Here is the link: http://www.flickr.com/photos/36800170@N05/4709271160


           This picture is worth a thousand words because this burger is just massive and, like the others, it is funny and raises some questions, like how much does it weigh? Where do you buy it? And how much does it cost? Here is the link: http://www.flickr.com/photos/99845848@N00/2151687552

My Prezi Reflection

Cameron McCutcheon

My Thoughts on Prezi

Prezi is an online presentation program and is alike to Powerpoint. Here are some of my thoughts on the program. You will hear what I think is good and what I think is bad.
Good:

On Prezi, you can work with other people at the same time. A little man with their name pops up on your screen and shows where they are editing things. It proved very useful to me when I was making a presentation with a partner.
There are also only two control panels on Prezi, which makes it very easy to use. The two control panels are the Zebra, which allows you to flip, enlarge and do other things with text and images. The second is the main panel, which lets you make a path for the slides, import images, and all of the other main features.

Bad:

Sometimes, the program goes funny and when you try to work on a project, it says “ hups, bzzr, we have a problem” or something like that. It has not happened to me but it happened to a friend who lost his entire project due to this.
Uploading videos to Prezi is also hard to do. I never managed to do this but other people did. You have to get them from YouTube or somewhere and then somehow get them onto the desktop and get them to your Prezi.

Challenges:

One challenge I faced was getting the path right. I would sometimes get the path going over an image twice and it took me a while to figure out that all I had to do to fix it was to press the undo button.

In conclusion, Prezi is a useful presentation program and is fun to use. I recommend you try it out. It is easy to use and you will get a nice looking project at the end.

I hope this will happen to classrooms...






Hello, I want these changes to happen in classrooms in 20 years. I mean, look at how awesome they are! In this Prezi you will see a bunch of neat ideas which I think would be very nice...

Camtech Redo



This is the redone version of my PowerPoint which is about me.
It has the same information that the other one had. It just looks more appealing.



This is my first PowerPoint presentation for I.T class. It is about me.
In this powerpoint you will discover things about me, my likes and dislikes, and other stuff.
Above there is a redo of this powerpoint which looks way better.
