Today Mrs. Morrow had us start on our podcasts. Podcasts are online broadcasts that just about anyone can make. Sometimes you can find podcasts about news and a good thing about that is if you miss the news on TV or the radio you can still listen to the podcast anytime you want. People also make podcasts where they talk about things they are interested in and other people can listen to them that share the same interest. I’m pretty excited about making my podcast; I’m making mine about drifting. I’m not sure that most people know what drifting is quite yet but hopefully my podcast will inform a few people about drifting.

Today was kind of a slow day. We watched the powerpoints people made about Technology in the World. After we all interviewed someone we turned their answers and opinions into a slide show. We watched most of the powerpoints but ran out of time and didnt see all of them. The ones we did get to watch were very interesting to watch and learn about different jobs. I dont think it really occured to all of us how much technology effects our lives today. Well that's pretty much all we did today. Until next time...

Today in class we are working on are powerpoints about technology in the real world. We are also working on pages about the teachers at are school. We are going to make pages about what they teach, how long they have taught and some of their hobbies. We are then going to put the pictures on the wall in school so that people will get to know the teachers here. Another thing we are doing is working on another powerpoint on what we think technology will be like in the future.

Later we went and did reports on some of the teachers in the high school, I did Gary Hostert, and whane Hesse. So far school has been going good, but like usual it is sometimes boring with all of the home work.
And that is about all that we hav been doing this year.

Yay i get the privalage of typing the first blog post! The school just bought us these cool mac laptops (they're soooo white!) We've just started this technology class with Mrs. Morrow and so far i've been using alot of programs and websites that i've never used before. I'm still getting used to using a mac though, all of the programs that im used to using on windows are not on macs. Later in the year we get to make an imovie for technology trends and social studies, killing two birds with one stone, really. Im kind of excited about using imovie because ive never used it before and alot of the programs on macs are easy to use. Well, thats about all!

Welcome to our Class Blog!

We are off to a super start for the 2006-2007 school year at O'Neill Public School. Each quarter a group of 8th grade students will be participating in a "Technology Trends" course. We will share what we learn and accomplish each day through our class blog, written by us: O'Neill Public 8th grade students. Armed with our brand new Macbooks, we are ready to explore and experience technology of all kinds. Learn and grow with us as we experience the latest and greatest in the world of technology and use it to help expand our horizons for today and tomorrow.
