E-Portoflios & Oooh La La - Paris, France Brochure (Using MS Publisher)

 

 The Learning Technology workshop last week was so full of tools and information, that I was completely excited for this week's workshop, needless to say, I was not disappointed.  If you would have asked me last week if I could make a website, I probably would have laughed at the thought.  Now, using Microsoft publisher, I believe I can do anything!  

Microsoft publisher is such an easy to use program, for even the most extensive projects, like making an e-portfolio as we must do for part of our assessment in this course.  There are so many options to choose from and helpful tools to make your website exactly what you want it to be.  

We also used MS Publisher to make travel brochures.  Again, there are so many ways to incorporate Publisher into your own classroom.  You can use them as a tool for students in a variety of different subjects such as geography (as we have with the travel brochures), in physical education as a health component or even in history class by picking a particular even and creating a brochure/pamphlet of information.  Not only is it fun and engaging to use the computer, but also a very educational opportunity to incorporate learning technologies in the classroom.

So far, the Learning Technologies workshops have been very rewarding.  Greg has so much energy and confidence in this area, that I am excited to see what he has in store for us next week. :)
