This blog entry is about a tool of my own interest from the list of Learning- Information Processing Technologies provided by Dr. Wang. I chose the website emaze.com. In class we discussed the L of TLC which is Learning. We also talked about PICRAT, and I believe this website would be considered Amplifies and Creative. I think this because it is allowing students to be creative when making their presentations. I think it amplifies because it is improving their information processing.

This website is a presentation builder similar to google slides but offers different templates and additives. It includes a variety of templates, 3-D effects, video backgrounds, audio and interactive elements. It is a free website and similarly to google slides multiple people can be working on a presentation at once. 
I believe this website is very easy to use once you get your account set up. For some reason when I was making my account the email code, they are supposed to send to confirm my email wouldn't send for a long time. I'm not sure if that was an issue with my Wi-Fi or the website was having issues. 

I think the versatility of this website is good. It allows a variety of uses because of the different templates and options. 

I will definitely use this website in my future classroom because of the ability to create very engaging and eye-catching presentations that will keep the student's attention.

    Hey Emily B.
    This a cool tool that could make presentations more enjoyable than your typical presentation tools, the tool does seem very versatile and the reason you gave for why you'd use it in the classroom is a valid one as using a visually appealing tool in a classroom to keep the students attention is valid.

  This blog entry is about a tool in Dr. Wang's PPT about previous T3PP results. Specifically Nearpod in the software mentioned by Secondary School teachers list. We have been talking about the SAMR model in class. I believe that Nearpod is an Redefinition because the teacher can use the website for so many things to do with curriculum and it also gives students the ability to work at their own pace.  Nearpod is a online learning platform that allows teachers to create engaging lessons and deliver them to students in real-time or online. Teachers have the ability to upload a variety of resources, including videos, images, and interactive quizzes, and use them to create dynamic and interactive lessons that keep students engaged and motivated. Students can participate in Nearpod lessons using a variety of devices and can provide instant feedback to the teacher through interactive features like polls and open-ended questions. Nearpod also allows teachers to track the progress of the s

This blog entry is about a tool in Dr. Wang's PPT about previous T3PP results. Specifically Flipgrid  in the Microsoft Technologies list.  Flipgrid is a tool that allows teachers and students to create and share short video responses to prompts or questions. It is a virtual video discussion board where everyone in the class can participate and share their thoughts and ideas! Create group and share link with students Students can record and respond to each other. I found this website to be very easy to use. You simply hit record and post a video response to a topic or question. The only problem could be students running into issues with getting their technology to record. I think this tool has a lot of versatility. It can be used for introducing students to each other, as a homework assignment, assessment, etc. It is nice that students have the ability to respond to their classmates.  I think the likelihood of using this tool in my classroom is fairly low. I think it is a great reso
