I was really nervous about presenting my PowerPoint in class. I was hoping that I had done it alright and completed all the requirements. After the presentation I was pretty happy with what I had and the nerves finally calmed done. I was so happy to have it all finished. The PowerPoint was a bit scary for me because I'm not the most creative person and the narrations scared me a lot because I had never done it before. And then lastly I had to upload it to Author Stream I was worried that I wasn't going to be able to upload it correctly.

So firstly starting with my experience with PowerPoint. I had done some simply PowerPoint presentations in the past but not on the newest version of PowerPoint. So I had to become familiar with it again. That was easy to work out and there were a number of videos available on YouTube. If I had any problems I could have looked at a fantastic PowerPoint Explanation. Although I didn't need to use it I noted it down in case I came across any problems. My next challenge was the narrations, I had never done this before and at first had no idea what a narrated PowerPoint was. So again I went to YouTube in hope of some help and found a great video that explained everything in detail. I then knew what I was doing. So I wrote up a practise speech and recorded my voice. It was actually quite simple.

I thought that Author Stream was going to cause me a lot of problems. I had never used the site before and thought that I would need to sign up for an account. However when I finished my PowerPoint I simply went to the website and uploaded my video, it uploaded it in a few minutes and it was all done! I was really happy with the website.

So now my whole Assignment 3a is finished, I am so relieved to have it all finished. I've actually learnt a lot from this assignment. I wrote my first authentic task and loved doing it. I explored the Australian Curriculum for the first time and got an idea of how it works. I narrated a PowerPoint for the first time and used Author Stream. This assignment is fantastic and teaches a lot of valuable information.

My wikispace is available for those that want to have a look, just click on the link. I really hope that I have done well on this assignment as I've learnt so much and put a lot of effort into it.

So now i'm focussing on writing a few more blogs as I haven't done enough that I wanted to do. So I plan to write a few more on my exam preparation and my final learning's in this unit.
