Screen shots on the Mac and PC


MAC 101

This week was mostly introductions to the class as well as Mac 101. I did learn how to do screen shots on a Mac which will come in handy especially for this class. When using Mac I knew doing screen shot was possible but did no know it was so easy to do. I think that when I am a teacher I will use this tool in order for students to prove and demonstrate to me that they were at certain web sites. On a side note this might be an easy way to get pictures online that are not always copy able.
When it comes to blogging, this is an activity that I was very engaged in when I studied abroad. However my adventures in the United States have not been as note worthy I must admit. Nevertheless, I feel that the class will give me plenty to blog about. It will also be valuable to review these blogs to see all that I have learned over the semester. More over, blogging can be an effective teaching tool to inform students about assignments, updates and perhaps some tips and trick to increase their learning and hence make them better students.
Besides that I am currently working on the proper business etiquette when it comes to writing a professional letter. I expect to have the letter sent to Mrs. Erika McCulloch by Sunday. I am exited to learn more short cuts on the Mac as well as getting my knowledge about teaching more integrated with the Macintosh. I feel that in college and in life in general people have become too dependent on PC. I constantly tell people that they discriminate against apple. I don’t care what people Say Apple will always be cooler.
