You Tube/Movie Maker

This is my first time ever uploading anything to YouTube. I guess I never really thought about how things got on there and that people actually had to put them there. I thought the Movie Maker was excellent. I liked the PhotoStory better still, which I know I have a project to do with that as well this mod. I am learning so much in this class. I must admit that I am looking off other people's blogs to make sure I am doing things right, so I would like to say thank you to my classmates even if you don't know you are helping me, you are helping me a lot :)

I am not sure if this is right. I tried to edit the html a million times and it would show up and then when I hit save it would disappear. I ended up inserting a presentation and it saved finally. It might be a little rough still, but it is on there at least. Here is my page

Google Docs



I hope this is what we were supposed to do. I'm also going to include the link to my Google Doc Power Point. It was really quite easy to make this into a google doc. When I was struggling a little with making it into a webpage through my regular documents I even thought of Google Docs and how it was.

Power Point Web Page

It took me a little longer to figure out how to do this. I kept saving it as a web page but it wouldn't show up in My Documents. I think I got it figured out. I hope it works. I am not sure why it says it's a lesson plan about the New Deal for 11th grade other than I was orginally going to do that, but then changed it but I never saved it that way.

Power Point Show

I am hoping I did this Power Point Show right. I tried to save it as just a power point show at first, and I couldn't get it to work when I clicked on the link. Then, I went back and changed it to the 97-2003 mode and it finally worked.
Power Point Show
I have used power point before and I think it is a good tool to know how to use. I put more information on this one than I normally do if I am giving a presentation, but I hope that everyone understands it. I saved it orginally not in compatiablilty mode, and then remembered that the newer version doesn't work for some people and went back and changed it. Here is my Power Point :)

PhotoStory

I thought the photostory project was really enjoyable. I was really impressed with how easy it was to just plug in the pictures, narrations, and music that you want. I showed it some friends and family and they were really impressed. They think my technology skills are going way up:) Here is my photostory

FTP

Hopefully this will work and everyone can see my FTP file that I created. I have not had any previous experience with FTP and I didn't even know anything like this exsisted. I did have some trouble with this because my interent is Internet Explorer7 instead of 6. I found a computer that has 6 though and I am still trying to work on figuring it out for 7. Thanks for the helpful comments in the student discussion on blackboard:)

Google Sites

This is my attempt for a google site. http://sites.google.com/site/caliannepate/

I know I need to do some more work on it, but at least it is started.

Personality?

Introverted (I) 51.72% Extroverted (E) 48.28%
Sensing (S) 61.29% Intuitive (N) 38.71%
Thinking (T) 59.38% Feeling (F) 40.63%
Judging (J) 55% Perceiving (P) 45%
Your type is: ISTJ

ISTJ - "Trustee". Decisiveness in practical affairs. Guardian of time- honored institutions. Dependable. 11.6% of total population.

When I started this test I thought I would be ISTP, I was right on all but one. I answered in the middle to a lot of the questions. I feel like I am not on the extreme in a lot of ways. I am organized, but I still procrastinate sometimes. I am shy, but I enjoy being in public and I don't really like to be alone. I mostly make decisions with my head, and sometimes with my heart. I guess this is reflected that most of my percentages are rather close. I don't know how much weight I put into reality tests, but I don't think it is very much.

Resume

I hope everyone is having an excellent day off this Labor Day. I am using today to try to "forge ahead" in my classes. My resume seems to be quite short and I am open for suggestions. I obviously have more work experience than what is listed; however, I don't think when I am going for a teaching position they will care that I was a server at a bar.
