:::THE END:::

Can't believe that these six weeks had past so fast. I had learn a whole bunch from this program. If I was asked to do this again I would have. I feel like I had achieved a lot from this experience. My working skills had got better. Know I'm 100% sure that I could get a job anywhere with the skills I gained. I dont have anything bad to say about this program.Thanks to all the people who had put this program together so we, the youth could succeed in life a lil' better.

Week 3

This week as a inviduals we all have managed to work four different powerpoints. These four powerpoints are about 'How to Use Family Net' 'How to Create a Google Account' ' How to setup a Skype Accoiunt'and How to create a powerpoint itself. To be more specific my powerpoint was on 'How to Use Family Net'. In order to use Family Net you have to first make an account. Family Net is a website for parents. Parents on this website can view thier childs academic scores, the days their child has been absent and tardy. This website is very useful.

Week 5

We all made videos of different things. My video is about Skype the the video show how
to make account. I used the PowerPoint and imovie. Jorge made a video about creating a video. Aisha made a video about FamilyNet. Jenny made a video about a google account.
On week 3 i had to create a video on making a video on imovie. It was a little hard but i got through it. I had a lot of fun i had to do it step by step there were lots of steps. I talked about taken screen shots. I also talked about transition power point and etc. We also worked on our portfolio for a little bit. Next week we will be putting it on the web site.

:::8/7/09:::

Today we presented all the videos that we created to our supervisor and the parents. They were pleased with our videos. we had a lot of positive feedback. Also, they gave us advise on how to make it better which was really helpful. I'm proud of all the work ma team and myself had put up to get 4 bilingual videos done in a week. These videos were: how to make a Google account, Skype account, an iMovie, and how to get into FamilyNet. All educational videos for both parents and students.

::Getting started on ma own video::

Creating an Google Account
Today I started researching how to create an Google email account. The purpose of this research is to make a video to help parents create an account. I did a slide for every single step from stating your name until actually creating the actual account. All the steps where put into individuals slides in the powerpoint program. After i was all done with the Powerpoint i did screen shots (Apple+Shift+3) of each slide. All these slides were put into the iMovie in chronological order. At this moment all the slides are put into iMovie all its left is to put bilingual voices and edit after that.
