 ||= QuickTime Movie || ITC 553 ITC 550 ||= **QuickTime Movie** ||= **QuickTime Movie** Creating the movie had many steps and although it was not difficult to do each step it was time consuming. Next time I will look for a different application to create a movie. || ||= [|Classroom Website] || ITC 527 ||= **Classroom Website** ||= **Classroom Website** Now that I have developed a classroom website it is rather easy to maintain. Although the initial creation and trouble shooting was time consuming, it was well worth it and now something I can keep building upon. I wish I would have realized this sooner and have created one earlier for my students. || ||= ===== **School Board Proposal** ===== || ITC 526 ||= ===== **School Board Proposal** ===== ||= **School Board Proposal** I believe I covered several aspects that the school board would question. If I were to actually present this I would create presentation using PowerPoint and have examples of software that could assist in this online class. || ||= ===== **Web Quest** ===== || ITC 514 ||= ===== **Web Quest** ===== ||= **Web Quest** Web Quests take a lot of planning and designing. The hardest part about Web Quests is remembering to keep the links current each time you use the Web Quest. This Web Quest should get posted on the Internet for other teachers to use in their classrooms. ||
