10/30 R＆P class

We started to practice presentation this week. Became a group and start the presentation in the situation as the real presentation. This class was almost the end of the class, so we had to presentation. This week, our teacher gave us an advice, looking around everyone's presentation. Every person in my group made an interesting presentation. Dam, air plane, games and so on. The most interesting presentation was a presentation of diving. All video and picture he showed to us was very beautiful and I want to make a slide like his one. I will think about the dead space and the contrast of the word. Using tha advice that I was told, I want to make a good presentation next week.

October 23th class

Today our class started to preparing for the presentation. Our teacher showed us how the presentation should prepared. I was surprised when I heard that all of the title slide is not useful. But when the teacher started to explain the reason, I realized why the teacher said. All of the classmates deleted the first slide and started to use the white most simple slide.  The most useful thing that I learned this day was using the google images more deeply. I used to use google images but I did not know how to limit the photo's. This is very useful for me to find good photo. Preparing for presentation seemed to be very difficult but I would try my best.

The class on October 9th

At the beginning of the class, most of the computer couldn't access to the Internet so we couldn't start the class on time.  In today's class we reviewed how to use Zotero. It was very thankful for me because I didn't remember all of the functions that was introduced in the last class.  Zotero is very useful. I thought again. Teacher also talked about the difference between writing essay on Microsoft word and google docs. Microsoft word is suitable for writing final draft and google doc is nice to share with other people while writing the essay. It made sense for me.

2 October 2013 R&P class

It was the first R&P class after entering October. Today the lecture was about Zotero. A extreamely fantastic application.  It was my first time to be introduced this application. As soon as I listen to what can I do and how can it help my essay, I decided to download on my laptop. First, we have to make our own account. Just put in the gmail address and set a password. Be careful not to use a same password as other account for our security. It was not so hard until here but I got a little confused to put in numbers in the blank. I was wondering to open space between the numbers, and I decided not to open. It worked but I want to know how it goes if we open spaces. Zotero can remember the books, web pages and so on that we regarded it as an useful information. It is very easy!  Just put in the book's ISBN which points the book's information. From the web pages, like YouTube , we can find a mark that makes the Zotero to remember the pages. We only have to click few times and that will make an useful memo. Also Zotero help us making works cited and citation automatically. Zotero look at the list that we ordered to remember. It can change the form of the works cited easily so I thought it will help my essay.
