Final Evaluation :) :S

In this assessment tasks i think i went pretty alright because in the beginning i began to start and was up to date but slowly fell behind on work and i would catch up again. Overall i think i should have managed  my time more and used the school computers more than at home because i didn't have a lot of access on the computer at home.
WIX!
 wix was interesting but a bit of a challenge for me because there was just so much to do and the template i chose was a very busy template the work load became more and more.

• • If i was to make anything different i would probably have made my page fro m scratch that way i wouldn't be overwhelmed in making it perfect and in the template style. I had a lot of information on the research meaning i had to cut some out because it would just use up most of and if not all the space on the webpage.. I probably will had to cut it down and i also had to change the topics at times because the information was hard to find and it was to much information sometimes.

• A problem i faced was that Wix would take too long to load and this was difficult at times when i wanted to save my work but it would take a long time it became quite frustrating after a while.

• Wix has mini pages which i used very affectively in my presentation i think because i added things such as mini pages inside mini pages and made it organised but still informative.

The world of Multimedia

As i was going through the work on the student website i realised i hadn't placed thisWorld of Multimedia presentation video on to my blog

The World of Multimedia on Prezi

1. Where do you commonly use multimedia in your daily life, list as many examples as you can.

Televisions

• Phones
• Computers
• Laptops
• Stereos
• Ipods/mp3 players
• Electronic Photo Frames
• Printers
• Navigators
• Electronic Directories in shopping centres
• Cameras

2. What multimedia device or service would you find it hardest to be without? Discuss.

I would find it the hardest to live without my Phone. It is a very important part of my life as I use it as a way to communicate with people, stay in touch with the world through web surfing and social networking, take photos and videos and entertain myself with music and games. 

3. The video on future directions (third video) has already to some extent come true. What multimedia technologies displayed in this video are already commonly used?

Some of the technologies displayed in the video that are already commonly used today are wireless, voice control, navigators, bluetooth and touch screens.

4. Do you see any advantages/disadvantages to the use of such multimedia technology?

Advantages:

 - They are easier to use and will make life simpler.

 - The cost of the touch screens will lessen as they will not need to be of extremely high quality. This is because it will not be used as often due to the voice control feature.

 - It will lessen the impact on eyesight as it can used at a further distance than computers and laptops today.

 - It can be used while you are doing other tasks as you are not required to touch it or move a mouse to operate it. You can give orders with your voice while at the same time doing something else.

 - It will be able to alert you to changes to your calender which means you will not miss any important meetings or functions due to a change of time or date you were not aware of.

Disadvantages:

 - The computer will contain so much of your personal information, if hacked the hackers will have access to every aspect of your life which is very dangerous. 

 - It could make us extremely reliant on the computer and could lead to people lacking independance.
