SYSTEM- an organized way of achieving a goal. TECHNOLOGY- the practical use of human knowledge to extend human abilities and to satisfy human needs and wants. COMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGY- the processes used to exchange information. Blog- a website that consists of regular posts that readers can respond to through comments. Short for weblog. Tech Talk Definitions

Slide 4: 

Some of the benefits of the system that we created are that the kids will get to meet half of the class. The things that needed to be improved are that everything is so hectic around the classroom. Everyone was very confused about what was happening. Also, we only got to meet half of the class at first, so it wasn’t so beneficial to everyone. We were able to improve our system by splitting up the room so everyone could meet each other. In the end it all turned out fine. My weblog

Slide 5: 

Just a few days ago, a terrible earthquake struck Haiti and hundreds of thousands of people were killed. Haiti has always been a poor, unlucky country, and now their luck has just gotten worse. But lucky for Haiti, America has offered to step in and lend a hand by starting charities, and all types of things to help out. Haiti

Slide 6: 

My dream is to become some kind of doctor, probably a heart surgeon. I want to be a doctor because I would get to learn new things and help people, maybe I could even save a life. I think that being a doctor is like solving a puzzle, and I love to do those kind of things. Also, if I was a doctor I would get to do the thing that I do best, and that is working in a team, I am great with working with other people, I would get to meet a lot of friends that way too. Dreams

Slide 7: 

When my team and I made our attempt at making the video, the things that went well were when we used the camera to introduce our team, and when we first started the video and made our team’s new project. The things that I particularly enjoyed doing were using the camera to introduce the team and the class. It was very funny and we made a lot of mistakes. When we decided who would do what in our group, we basically just each took a piece of equipment and said that the person who took it first could be in charge of it while we were making the video. While we were making the video the challenges that we encountered were when we first started, we had a lot of difficulties with the camera, we couldn’t get it started so that we could record the video. Also, our team didn’t know how to edit the video, but we figured it all out in the end. While we were doing the project, we didn’t get very far, we are still making the video. We didn’t post it or do anything to it yet. One thing that I would like to add about our experience with making the video is that it is a lot of fun and I would recommend making one just for fun to anyone. The thing that I would like to do next is finish the video and post it to the internet. Our Video Persentation

Slide 8: 

In our platform video, there will be a lot of building involved. First, we will build the platform strong enough to withstand a 25 pound weight, and place text books on top of it so that we can see how much weight it can hold. Then, we will put it all on tape and post if it to the blog. We will make this all from an office folder and 12 inches of tape.
