Socrative Formative Assessment
I think the idea of multi device quick assessment tools are great idea. Students are already on their phones so why not make the assessment techniques more available. The quick nature of these formative assessments works well for the often short attention span of the current generation. I do believe the format of the Socrative website could be improved. I found it appeared organized but was somewhat difficult to navigate when in the process of making an assessment. below is a link to a short quiz on color theory I am working on.

LinkedIn Account
The process of creating a LinkedIn account is something I started about a month ago. I realize that this can be a very helpful tool in the job search. It could also be helpful for simply staying up to date and connected with your colleagues. This course has helped in reminding me how useful and important it is to continue to keep pages such as your LinkedIn profile up to date. The suggested connections that were provided when I made my account were current colleagues from not only college but and all aspects of my professional life. So far I am finding the connections made on LinkedIn to be very helpful.

Quizlet Flashcards
Flashcard tools such as Quizlet can be utilized in the art room to review technical terminology. Color theory terminology can be reviewed at any time with the use of technology. With teacher created flashcards it allows for the assurance that the students are studying the correct terminology. http://quizlet.com/37057180/the-color-wheel-flash-cards/

This was my first look at the program ComicLife. I think that there are some great possibilities that can come with this program. For the lesson I created I used ComicLife in a rather traditional fashion. I asked students to create a narrative. The main focus of my lesson was to consider the elements of art in the photography used in the creation of the comic. I would like to continue working with this project. I think it could be very helpful in engaging students, particularly those who are already interested in comic book style narrative. In the future I might stray from the idea of a traditional narrative comic book story.

Google Map
This was also my first look at creating my own Google Map. I found the process to be much easier than I was expecting it to be. The easy to use guidelines that google offers were the most helpful aspect. I really liked the idea of the virtual guide to art in the area. I feel this would inspire students to get out and explore what is right there in their home town. I could also see this tool being very useful for art history lessons. The fact that students could have a visual not only of the art they are studying but also the location of it on the globe. Seeing where artists worked an really relate to what inspired them.
