Description:
*Made a recommendation on software purchase
*Found a review of the software choices
*Included supporting data
*Prepared as spreadsheet
Rationale:
I chose this
assignment to include as an artifact because it represents a real
life activity for me. This year I was asked to present a
recommendation on animation software, and I was able to use this
format for my presentation. In completing the research
for my information, I had to compare many facets of the software
including price, features, future available upgrades, and
compatibility.
Implications for future:
I have
used a similar approach as this for my multimedia students to
research audio mixing software. I was amazed at the variety of
software choices they found! We were able to try many of them
out on a trial basis before settling on one that we actually
purchased. I also provide my students
with a variety of software choices for our main subjects of web
authoring, graphics editing, sound editing, animation, and video
tech.
Reviewer's Comments:
You recommend Front Page for the beginning and GoLive for the
more advanced. That is good to hear because you have taught web page
and this is my first year to teach web. I am doing my class that
way....Front Page at the beginning and GoLive later. The good part
is...I am teaching them some Photoshop too and they are beginning to
understand how Adobe works.
