What I learned and What I Have Done

Last week we worked with Photoshop. I have not worked much with this software before this class but I find it very interesting that you can edit pictures and make changes to photos and create your own images. I learned how to create a banner which is very cool the way that you can add a picture to your banner and soften it to the background which gives it the effect that it was there. 

I also learned that the only way your Photoshop image can show on the web is to save for the web. We then uploaded the banner to our wiki pages.

What I have learned and obstacles

We have been working on the code academy website lately. This helps you to learn how to create a website and the different tags that there are in a website in order to have a well organised and functioning website. I personally think that some of the ways that this website shows you is kind of confusing. This is because many people have ran into certain problems when going through the process. The way we did it when we were creating our own without this site was different so some thing like adding links or pictures were not caught on right away.

Nevertheless, I believe that it is necessary to learn different ways because your way will not always work.

Podcast: Compare and Contrast

These podcast are professionally done. The speakers who are Kate kiefer Lee and Paul Boag made sure the enunciate their words correctly.
Kate spoke about voice and tone when speaking and the voice was very clear on the podcast. You can understand everything she said. Her sense of humor was always something she used to make her speech entertaining.

My Blogging Experience

 Blogging is a good way of keeping record of what you have learned in my web design class. I think this is a very good way of allowing children to improve their computer skills.
I have came to some times where I had difficulties. Adding gadgets to my blog gave me problems at first but I have learned how to add a podcast to my blog.
I was seeking help at first to upload my podcast because the instructions were not clear but then I researched it myself and got to make my archive account to upload the mp 3 file to that account and then I got help to upload it as a post onto my blog. I also added another gadget which is a map with the flag of Guyana; map of where I am from.

Blog Post5: What I know about web design

What I consider to be web design

Personally I have not done web design before but I have an idea of what it is. Web design is generally working with the online. It is a skill of creating presentations using the world wide web.

I hope to learn how to create website for future references so that when I have my own business someday i can make my own and also to find more ways to communicate with people online.
