This is the fabulous twitter header I created using Canva. Let me tell you, this website was so easy to use. I totally recommend it to anyone. It allows people to make cute headers so easily. I will use it again.

Bomomo

This is the beautiful artwork I made on bomomo. It was super easy to make and turned out pretty good. All you have to do is move your mouse around. It is a pretty cool website.

Comic Strip

This is the comic strip I made using Pixton. It was an okay website. I don't think I'll ever use it again and I didn't think it was that easy to use. It was a good experience.

Infographics

This is the infographic I made on Piktochart. This website was very cool because it allowed you to make a professional looking infographic but do so easily. I will definitely use this website again in the future when I have a project dealing with facts and figures. It was so fun to use!

Voki

This is my avatar I created using the website called Voki. This website allows people to easily create characters and add their own voice to them. It was super easy and fun to use but I probably won't use it again.

This is my Taxedo I made. It was really easy and fun to make! I will use it again because I can pick the shape of the Taxedo and make a creative display. It is an easy and fun way to be creative and look professional.

This is a QR code I made with the QR Code Generator. This is very modern technology and lots of people utilize it today. QR codes allow for easy access to great information. I am so glad I got to learn how to make these codes. I will use this website in the future!

April 25th Journal

I have learned so many things this semester in Emerging Tech. The favorite thing I have learned this semester in this class was the stop motion videos. I thought it was really cool how the pictures made the objects look like they were actually moving and it was fun to see everyone else's ideas and how they were creative in their projects as well. I had never known how to do this in the past. It was something completely new that I had never experienced. I hope I learn about more cool websites I can use that will help me give presentations. That would be cool.

Emerging Technology

            I researched my emerging technology on Wikipedia. My emerging technology I found was an artificial uterus. As of now it is a theoretical device. It would allow for an extracorporeal pregnancy, which means the embryo would grow outside of a female body. It would allow for a couple to have a baby; however the mother would not be carrying. It can be referred to as a neonatal incubator with extended functions. Additionally, it would allow for fetal surgery in early stages rather than postponing the surgery to end of term. It would provide nutrients and oxygen keep the fetus healthy. It would also dispose of the fetus’s waste. It would also include functions similar to a placenta, an amniotic sac, and an umbilical cord.

            The strengths of this technology would be that the fetus would be developed safely outside of the mother. It simulates like a uterus while still supplying the necessities a fetus needs. The baby could be watched more carefully inside the uterus and surgery could be performed prior to birth.

            The weaknesses of the artificial uterus would be that it would be a very expensive procedure. It also is still a hypothetical technology. Therefore it needs further research and development before it can be implemented.

            This technology would provide an opportunity for couples who have trouble getting pregnant naturally to have a baby. It allows for couples to not have to rely on adoption or another woman to carry their baby.

            The threats of the artificial uterus are that it could pose many dangers to the fetus. There could be complications with the uterus and a miscarriage could occur. 

Obesity Timeline

This is my timeline on obesity. I used the website TimeToast to create it. The website was really easy to use! You can put pictures into your timeline as well. I would definitely use this website again if I were to make a timeline. They look very professional and sophisticated.

Obesity Flashcards

We used Quizlet to make these flashcards. I use Quizlet all the time to study for my other classes! I think this is a great tool because it is easy to use and saves all of your flashcards so you don't have to worry about losing them. There are games and different activities to play. I will definitely use this resource again.

PowToon

This is a website I found on LiveBinders called PowToon. This website is so cool because you can make free animated videos! They looks good and are easy to create. There are different templates you can choose from, or you can choose a blank template and start from scratch! There is different music and characters that can be placed into the video, and you can even add pictures of yourself into the cartoon. I would definitely use this website again.

Free Photo Editing

Today I found six new, free, photo editing websites to edit and change my pictures for free! They were fairly simple to use and I got great results...
PicMonkey- This website was so easy to use! It had editing for makeup and also had cool color effects that you can use to change the filter of your pictures! Favorite!
Pixlr- Pixlr is pretty easy to use; it is not as easy as PicMonkey, but it is completely free and does not require a membership to get all of the effects. I would definitely use this website again.
BeFunky- This website had a lower quality editing system compared to the other websites I have tried... It still was free and had good tools, however, I probably wouldn't use it again. Least Favorite.
Ribbet- This website was a lot like Picnik, which I used in middle school. It had lots of effects and was one of my favorites that I saw. The website was high quality and offered lots of different styling options.
Fotor- I liked this website, while it is a little confusing to use, it still had very useful tools. I really enjoyed the variety of options that were provided on this website.
LunaPic- This website was not one of my favorites; it had many tools but I did not enjoy the layout of the website. I would recommend to try it though! My pictures turned out pretty good.

Hefty Henry

ZooBurst is a resource where you have the ability to make cool pop-up books like mine! It is a fun thing to do for little kids. My story was about a whale named Henry. Henry got obese. One day he went to the doctor and decided to get fit and eat healthy. Henry went on to become a stunner and met a babe named Kimmy at the gym. The two got married and lived happily ever after. The story shows the progression of Henry from a couch potato to a happy whale.

This is my Glogger poster. Glogger is a website in which you can make nice looking, interactive posters. It was very easy to use and it was a unique tool! I will definitely use this again.

Survey Analysis

Based on my survey results, the male specimen over estimated how much protein, weight training, and aerobic training a person should have. The females tended to under estimate these numbers. This is understandable because males consume protein in loads and want it to get “swole”. Males also lift more often than females in high school, therefore the days a week to weight train are overestimated. Most people thought that a banana contained the most fiber; however, the correct answer was raspberries. There was no variation based on gender for this category, and I do not understand why someone would choose banana, that obviously has the most potassium not fiber. Males also projected a higher consumption of water than females. Mostly the males answered in higher numbers for exercise and nutrients and females answered lower. When I asked what people do to maintain a healthy lifestyle, almost everyone said they exercise and try to eat healthy. This is good to know students are maintaining a good lifestyle. When I asked how students could change their lifestyle to make them healthier, many answered “eat more fruit”, or “watch less TV”. These are good answers because they understand what needs to be changed to become healthier and happier. 

Wordle

Today, the class, and I, used this neat tool called Wordle. You can put a variation of words into a template to make these awesome designs of words! The website was super quick and easy to use. I'll use it in the future!

Obesity and Nutrition Survey

This is my survey on my topic of Obesity and Nutrition. In class we made our surveys using Google forms. It helped us to learn more about our topics and helped me to learn how much my blogees know about my topic! It is a handy tool that is really easy to use! I will most definitely make another survey in the future. Enjoy!

Obesity Mind Map

This is a picture of my mind map for my very exciting topic of obesity! To create it I used the website bubbl.us. Here you can make a mind map to look organized, and even use different colors and fonts for your different topics and bubbles. If you're looking for something extraordinary, look no more.
