Today is my presentation day...I have opted to go last so I will try to pay attention to the other two presenters and know that in 2 hours from the posting of this post it will be over :)

Rose presented a video on gardening. She used some Adobe software to create her movie. I have been following Rose's blog and she truly is excited about gardening! I would have enjoyed this presentation more if she had shown a shorter video and explained more of the how-to. Suggestions for Rose: write a script so that your "story" is told more fluidly. Use the transitioning tools for smoother transitions. Good first time video. As I mentioned in an earlier blog entry I am anxious to try my had as a video producer.

The second presentation was on "kidspiration" which is visual learning software for pre-K to 5th grade. "kidspiration, the visual way to explore and understand words, numbers and concepts. We first watched a tutorial that made me jealous...there isn't a fun/easy tutorial for InDesign (the software I am presenting on). Maybe this is due to the audience, ya think? I think that my daughter Ellie Ann (2nd grader) would enjoy playing with the free trial software while learning too! There is also a software program called inspiration for 6th to 12th grade.

I'm up in 10 minutes...Fortunately or unfortunately some of my classmates were not able to attend my presentation...classes for the eight week session begin today. I guess as long as Kurt doesn't walk out I am good.
