Visual Aid:

Links to help further understand the difference between congruent and similar: [] [] [] []

Real Life Example: []

Reflection: 1. The original score was 69.43/100, I feel this was an accurate grade because of my failure to externally link all of my links, making them all return directly to the wiki page instead of the intended site. My real life example also not according to what was needed for the real life example, I now know what to do for the section but the past mistake is seen clearly to me now. The comments I received were mostly helpful, telling me what my mistakes were and what exactly I did wrong, I feel now that this second attempt at the project I can tackle with a much more informed mindset. 2. The changes I've made are as listed: New audio recording, updated and enlarged visual aid, fixed links, changed real life example. I changed the audio recording because after personal review of it I decided it was unprofessional and needed changed to be so by typing what I will say before recording. I updated the visual according to my new recording and the fact of missing the angle congruence and right angle symbols the first attempt, I also made it bigger to make the numbers and symbols more visible. I fixed the links which was a primary mistake on my part because it was suggested by comments and Mrs. Jennings and also because the inability to function was unintended on my part. The real life example was changed from the snowmen to a wikipedia link to scale models which is an actual real life activity that similar comes into play, this new example applies to what was needed for the project. 3. The most important thing is to make the layout of your tutorial organized and easy to understand. Time management isn't a big thing on the project, you only need a day if no problems occur. Developing the site is easy, the wikispaces interface is very user friendly and if you have any problems Mrs. Jennings can help out with anything needed. 4. I'm in a class called Community School which teaches for me History, Science and English. All CS students are provided with a school server, a laptop, tons of equipment in cabnets for science and a smart board. I have always considered technology vital for education to be easier and smoother so I really havn't learned anything about its potential since I already know its potential, I do think though that it isn't being to its full potential currently in schools, we can do much more with it than we have done so far. We've created servers for school, websites and tons of computers, but there's so much more to it that can be used in school and I hope schools will reach that point in the future. I consider myself to have a vast knowledge on technology, not a full understanding but enough to answer this question with the fact that I havn't learned anything at all from this project about technology.
