Emaze was a simple way to present the use of technologies in the research an planning. I was able to set out the information clearly and concisely. It is also easy to imbed, so we can upload it to our blog. Emaze also uses cloud technology so I wouldn't have to worry about loosing my work, and I could update it at anytime from different devices, making it very convenient.
This helped us to acquire skills such as how to put together a professional looking presentation, which is a skill that can be applied to a variety of fields.
We also had to make our points concise so they worked in the presentation
| Pros: | Cons: |
|---|---|
| Professional looking | Overly Complicated Layout and controls |
| Gives a set layout, giving you ideas as how best to present your work. | Site can often crash and takes an internet connection to use, compared to PowerPoint which does not. |
| Allows you to easily convert PowerPoints. | Has very long upload times. |
These let us annotate our work and the construction that went into it as the video is playing, so as you read the annotation appears there is a video example of that piece of construction.
this took a lot of organisation to decide who was doing what and splitting up the amount fairly.
As well as this we had to learn how to use the YouTube annotator itself.
| Pros: | Cons: |
|---|---|
| All features are set out in an easy to understand manner. | Annotations on screen can be cluttered and it can be difficult to achieve significant detail in such a small space. |
| The colour coding makes it much easier to tell who said what. | The system itself finds it difficult to handle a large amount of annotations so buffers a lot for this task, so it takes longer to complete task and can even loose progress. |
