Evaluation Question 6
What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?
I had never used PhotoShop before, so this was something I was looking forward to learning during this course. Using guides helped me with my alignment to make my magazine look more organised. I learnt how to use layers to my advantage, and how to edit images so they looked more professional. I learnt about strokes and shadows, and how they helped make my magazine look more three-dimensional.
InDesign in something else I had never used before this course. At first, I found it very hard to get to grips with but I eventually learnt my way around the program and realised it was much better at handling text compared to PhotoShop, and this made my magazine look more professional and organised.
Prezi was something I'd never even heard about before this course and so I was very interested to learn what it was and how to use it to my advantage. I found it a very effective tool to show my ideas in a new, original way. It was something I've learnt that I will continue using throughout A2 and in other lessons.
Blogger is the new technology that I've used the most during my AS year. It's very effective and easy to use, and I would recommend others to use it. I learnt how to edit posts so that they were in a certain order, and I learnt more about the use of HTML when it came to embedding videos within my blog.
Like it? Create your own at GoAnimate.com. It's free and fun!
GoAnimate is something I found particularly fun to use in my evaluation process. It was very quick and simple to pick up, and I learnt how to use to website by experimenting with it. I now find myself using it fluently and efficiently, making my findings/evaluation be presented in an original and interesting way.
