Description:
Ms.Graham was interested in integrating technology into her classes to help her students. I started off by creating a website on Google Sites so that she could post up homework and important events in case students forget their homework or they missed class.
Ms.Graham was also interested in changing up the BTT ISP to use Prezi instead of Power Point so that the presentation could be more engaging and visually appealing to her students. The ISP was to create a fictitious business and make a presentation and a website to advertise it. To introduce Prezi to her students, I have made two example Prezis for them and a tutorial Prezi to present to them on the basics of Prezi. I also created an example website for the students to get an idea of how Ms.Graham would like it to look. Ms.Graham also asked that they be taught some web page design to make their website visually appealing.
