New vs Old Devices I Have and Have Not Come Across

Nearing the end of last class I began to really think about the final summative project for the course. Although I am looking forward to putting it together, it will also be a new skill I will be learning to use in the case of technology. I have never used a microphone to capture my voice and put in on a file. These skills I wish I would've learned in school and did not. There was a course called "Information Technology" in high school that I didn't take, now I wish I had! The teacher for that course was awesome, my close friend was in it and she was making little movies. That beautiful classroom has since been removed and is now being used as a cafeteria in my old high school.

Last class Mike was able to show us how quick and easily a podcast can be put together in the classroom and used as an exit slip, for example. I was able to see how, with advanced forms of devices such as the mac book, it could be put together easier. I have an old laptop at home and it is no where near advanced as the newer devices that are out there. Oh, and I wasn't sure what a podcast was up until last class. (yikes) and I have also never worked with a mac device, besides my iphone.

Anyways, I'm excited and a little nervous to get down to starting my final project. I have tried to look at previous projects from last year and I was not able to locate them on the NING.
