I have already been using the snipping tool since I got my laptop. It is useful for getting past websites with copyright guards which prevent you from copying and pasting pictures off them.
Also already figured out the power point "notes at the side function", since it was crucial for keeping in track of presentations.
W: What I want to learn for the next two lessons:
Googling pictures. I like taking pictures of wildlife; especially insects. Now I don't always know the name of the species of the creature I have taken and I have not been able to "google" pictures like you "google" words to find out what they are. I want to know if there is a solution to this. Is there a "picture recognition" function like that of Facebook's "face-recognition" function? That would be most helpful for me.
L: What I Learned today
Removing the background of pictures. My friends and I got stuck with this problem once as we were only able to go as far as making the white background of a picture colorless in order to get to the picture without the background. This is useful.
The package of Office2010 plus Photoshop sounds awesome too; if only it was free for students.
Q: Questions I still have:
Screenshot function: I didn't quite catch it when it was shown. Can we just be given a whole bunch of exercises; allow us to play around with the program on our own; and the lecturer be present just to answer our questions? Cut out the whole lecture from this lesson; we don't need it; just let us play around and find out for ourselves; and be present to answer our questions. I personally guarantee that we will learn a tonne more that way.
As the class is too big for Practical, lecture is necessary to ensure we know what we want and stay focus.
ReplyDeleteI hear you. I will keep the lectures short and sweet.
thanks for taking note. by the way this blog idea is really cool. This way you can get our feedback fast and efficiently without all the paperwork.
