The music genome project was one of my favorite projects we’ve done! I really enjoyed putting it together. I thought it was really fun to go back and research the history of different genres of music. I think most of the people in my class had fun with this project. While putting this project together, I felt as if I was back in my childhood of the 90’s. Another part of this project I enjoyed was seeing how much the different genres of music have evolved to our present day music. I found it a bit difficult to convert some songs from Garage Band into iMovie at first, but after a while I got a hang of it.

Podcast
The podcast was actually pretty simple. I kind of expected it to be a bit difficult, but it wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. In grade school my class was taught very little about garage band, so I was sort of worried about having to use it for this project. Once I started to use garage band though, it was easy. I even enjoyed using garage band. I learned how to insert music and also how to cut out parts of the music. I even learned how to add pictures. Overall, I think this was a good project.
Storyboard Blog
For the storyboard project, you need some creativity to make your slideshow. Having groups was a good idea because there were more people to pout together more creative ideas. When you have to do an assignment that involves a lot of creativity you should try to work with a group. In a group with more people you can come up with more ideas to put together to make a better project. When you are in a group you can work together to come up with more creative ideas to use for your project. You can finish your project and work with friends at the same time.

iPhoto Name Project
I had a lot of fun with this project. This was a very cool project and it seemed so easy because it was so much fun. This project taught me how to use zamzar, which I had never done before. This is probably my favorite project we have done so far this trimester. I also think this project is fun to watch after it had been finished. It’s entertaining to watch other people’s project video as well. I showed my name project video to my mom and stepdad and they both taught that it was really cool and very creative.

Mail Merge
I thought that the mail merge project was a real learning experience. I think this was a very helpful project that taught me more about the Macs. I will probably use this type of tech work in the future. This project wasn’t too difficult and it was actually kind of fun! I actually learned things that I had not known before and I felt like this project was a good way of teaching me. I was taught a little bit about Excel in grade school, but this project helped me learn things I had not learned in grade school.

M&M Project
I think this project was a good one to help us learn how to use Excel better. We separated each bag of M&M's by color, then we counted the amount of each separate color. After that we gave our numbers to the other people in our group. We then summed and averaged up the numbers. After that, I put a pie chart underneath the data. I then made my chart "pretty" by coloring the letters and highlighting the backgrounds. Then we got to eat the M&M's. This was a fun project for the whole class because we got to eat it after we collected data.

My Expectations
I hope to learn a lot in this class. I would really like to learn things about my laptop that I can use in the future. I think this class will be very helpful in teaching me how to use each different application in my laptop correctly. Also, I’m hoping that this class can teach me shortcuts and other things that can make using my laptop easier. I want to learn how to use the tools that are on my laptop as well. Overall. I feel as if this class will make using these laptops easier throughout high school for every student at Peoria Notre Dame.
