Creately
This weeks project for me was so frustrating! I really did not enjoy this assignment at all. First of all the program was not easy to use. I watched a demo stating how it was handy and the benefits of using Creately. But it was NOT as simple as it stated. I got half way through and realized that I could not save my work, because I had not signed in. Once signing in, I then had to re-do what I had already started. Then it took me a very long time to figure out how to post it on my blog. Then I had to reformat it because it was too big. Then I had to edit and refigure it again. It was so frustrating!!! Previous assignments have been easy to work with and simple to understand, this was not. I'm not sure how I would be able to incorporate this into my teaching style. I could see it possibly being helpful in a business or college situation but for English, I don't believe that I would use it. This was the only site that I used so maybe the other sites would be simpler or easier to follow. But I would not recommend this for others use.

I'm glad I didn't use Creately! I'm sorry you had such a hard time with it. It seems like Creately and Gliffy essentially do the same thing, you might try that program next time as I found it easier to navigate and use. The image you created looks very professional, so good job sticking with it and getting the assignment done!
ReplyDeleteI used googlewave and it was pretty simple. Sorry this assignment was difficult for you. Even though you had a difficult time it turned out looking very nice.
