Today in, Tech in Education, we had a three hour class that consisted of introducing ourselves to the class and getting to know each other a little more. We also learned how to set up and make a Gmail account for all of the websites we will have to sign up for. After that we signed up for our first website, which was flickr. Flickr is a website in which pictures are shared and also edit. You are able to share pictures with each other and able to edit and add all sorts of cool and neat pictures.
To end the class period we looked over what web 2.0 is and shared some ideas which are considered to be in web 2.0. Some of those things included social media, shared folders and wiki websites. Those are all things that people are able to access and comment and interact with other people. Finally, we looked at a puzzle maker website that would cos you $40 dollars to make, but we then went onto google, and found other alternatives that are puzzles are free. To end the class we set up our blogger accounts and learned how to access them and start blogging.
