Hi everyone,

Welcome to my webpage. My webpage has all the works I did this year in computer class. I hope you all enjoy it.

Cheers: Talia.



In this project we learned how to complete many types of formatting. We learned how to make block paragraphs, bullets, and page breaks, line spacing, typing skills, and how to insert a picture. I had no trouble with most of these types of formatting, but I still learned a few things that I didn’t know about before. I didn’t know about page breaks until this lesson. This lesson taught me a lot about formatting.

In this project we explored on the search engine //Google//, to find the answers to the four questions provided. We copied all the answers to a MS document. This was a review of the last project we did. This one was actually quite interesting. I learned a lot of facts, for example now I know the approximate population of Beijing: I didn’t know that before.

 We learned how to peer edit nonfiction and fiction writing in this lesson. Though it was short, it was a very useful lesson.

 This was my favorite project so far. We had a lot of fun working with //MS Publisher//. I learned how to insert photos of family and friends onto //MS Publisher//. I don’t have //MS Publisher// at home so I learned a lot on how //MS Publisher// works. This was an exceptionally fun project.

[|Talia65collage.jpg]  //Google// //Earth// was very interesting. It was probably the most interesting thing we did in computer class so far. I really enjoyed it because it was exciting to explore many places on earth. You could see and explore places you’ve never been to. We learned how to mark certain places with flags. //Google Earth// is fantastic because you can find any park and house: basically anywhere on earth. You can also have fun playing an airplane game: learning how to fly an airplane. //Google Earth// was also very exciting.

Early Man Timeline with //Timeliner// __**  During this lesson we put information from a //MS document// and transferred it to a timeline. I didn’t get it at first but as we went along with the lesson, it got a bit easier. It was pretty hard for me because I never made timelines on the computer before. I learned how to make a timeline on the computer. Also this lesson taught us organization, which will really help in the future.

 We learned how to make a mind map in inspiration during this lesson. I never used inspiration, so I learned a lot: It was a great experience. We copied and pasted things from a //MS document// and put them in a mind map format. At first I was very slow, because I was unsure of what to do, but then I got pretty fast and good at it.

 In this project we looked at a MS Excel spreadsheet as a database. In each cell there was information about some of the students in middle school. We had to check if the information was correct, and looking at it gave us an idea of how a database can be sorted.

There is no example because there is not confidential information.

In this project we used photo shop to morph our own school photos. I learned how to use photoshop, and had great fun doing that. I think so far this was the most fun project we did in computers. At the end of the project everyone’s pictures turned into something totally different from what they looked like before, the pictures got turned into monsters, and goons ect.
