Overall, I was pleased with the outcome of my project. I spent the last two months tweaking the pictures, toying with Windows Movie Maker to make sure my video was up to par, and simply perusing various websites in search of answers to any technical difficulties I was encountering with my Power Point presentation.
Of course, I’d always like to learn more. With the way technology changes, I always need to be on my toes. I am also happy with my new purchase: flash drive. I was able to transfer my pictures as well as video, which made my life so much easier in the end! Power Point could be used in the classroom in a variety of ways. We saw in Shade’s presentation how a young man used PP to present his graphic novel.
Since my project was a summation of the 2006 NYSEC conference, the only thing I could really do is update whatever new information becomes available regarding the conference – reviews, photos, etc. Truthfully, if we had scheduled the presentations over two nights it may not as been as stressful for everyone. Again, I’m happy with the outcome. I just hope everyone enjoyed it. The conference itself was an extremely memorable experience!

Excellent job on your presentation; it was very well prepared, and the powerpoint slides were nicely done. Do you have a website address for the conference? If you could post that to your blog (I'm sure it's here but I seem to have developed pattern blindness!)
I wish I could have had more time to digest the information; the conference sounded very interesting. Thanks for sharing it with us.
