Web 2.0 PowerPoint Presentation Reflection

REFLECTION:
I believe that I have successfully met the criteria for this assessment 'My Space- With Web 2.0' because I have created a Questionnaire, gathered results from my peers, produced graphs and fully documented them into my PowerPoint. I have used all relevant information and included and answered the necessary questions from the Assessment Criteria. I have also included my own extra information on Web 1.0, which helps us get a better idea of what Web 2.0 is about. I have carefully designed my presentation and added pictures to explain my information further. My information is short and informative in a bullet point format to allow people to easily understand what it says. I have successfully met the 10 slide requirement as well. I also had my friend Seema look at my presentation beforehand, and she approved of the design but told me that the Pros and Cons slide needed pictures, so I added pictures. If I were to redo this presentation, to improve I think I could have added some more information on 'how web 2.0 has developed in today's society' because in comparison to the other slides it was a bit unclear. In conclusion, I believe that I did a pretty good job on my PowerPoint because it was carefully done and I took time on it so that it would meet the criteria. 

Web 2.0 PowerPoint Presentation

Note: I sent this to you on Monday before the ICT lesson, but I was at home and sick so I didn't know that we had to upload it here, I hope you can still grade it, sorry.

Tech Fair reflection

I really enjoyed doing this project because I got to do it with my friends and it was so much fun. I feel we all contributed well, some more than others, throughout the process of planning, designing and creating. We started off with 3 ideas originally, but were leaning towards the game the whole time. I'm very glad we chose this. We wanted a game based not only on the school but also the community; we did this because our AOI was Community and Service. Once the design process began we had a brainstorming session on what we could include and we couldn't. Once we knew exactly what was going to be in our game we drew a design and then started to incorporate that into our game. When making this game we came through so many minor obstacles and we overcame them by watching and reading tutorials on how to use RPG Maker VX. Overall, it was a fun, educational and interactive game.

I was very pleased of the feedback we received because it was all very positive. We could improve by fixing up the small glitches and bugs, as well as adding more features to make the game more enjoyable.

Area of Interaction

Human Ingenuity:

We chose Human Ingenuity because 

Community and Service:

We chose community and service because our game is educational so it provides a service to the people. 

Final Idea

Video Game

Seema, Kimiya, Aline and I are planning to create an rpg game of our school, or just any school. There will be quests and other things to do. The objective of the game is to collect 5 stamps from various teachers or students. Once you collect 5 stamps, you will be rewarded with chocolate given by one of our group members.
We will create custom tilesets and sprites for the game to make it a modern day school. We will all watch video tutorials from youtube to understand how the game works, and be fully informed and able to create the game. We were thinking of using the school computers so more than one person can play at a time.

Software:

Rpg maker vx ace
Ms paint

Roles:
Eman-  coding and event triggers
Aline- Poster, powerpoint presentation
Kimiya & Seema- Character and sprite creation/customization

Hardware:

Laptop

Video/resource:http://www.youtube.com/show/rpgmakervxacetutorials

Advantages:      It will be fun to make and we will be making a slideshow and probably a poster so the presentation will be appealing and it will be a fun game for anyone to play.

Disadvantages: We might not be able to be in a group of 4 which would be easier to make the presentation harder and it wont be as appealing if we were a 3

dreamweaver

Idea 2:
Music Video

For this project we will create a lyric music video, using visual drawings to show the lyrics. The song is undecided at the moment, and the game is our first priority.

Software:

iMovie
Youtube converter

Hardware:

Laptop
Paper and other materials

Idea 3:

Cardboard box phone,  if all else fails because it seemed simple and fun and will be a nice presentation, also to add with it we would make a poster about the history of telephones and have smaller models of them aside each other to spot the differences and in the end there will be a quiz although we are not sure about this idea it would be good if the game and the video doesn't work out. We wont be using any software except for Power point Presentation and the hardware we will be using is Cardboard and paint etc.

disadvantages: really simple, not that much technology involved

Weebly Reflection

Weebly is extremely easy and simple to use, it's all just drag-and-drop. And, if I were to create a website for a business, I'd definitely use Weebly because if you just pay a small amount of money you can customize everything a lot more, and very easily. You can pretty much add in anything you need, with a few clicks of the mouse.

Task improvement:
I should have added more since I was given many options, and completed the work on time.

HTML and Dreamweaver Reflection

I'd have to say that after testing both programs, Dreamweaver is indeed easier, although I'm a bit more accustomed to HTML since I've used it before. Dreamweaver is just a lot simpler, and you don't need to memorise as much when using HTML.
