Interactive PowerPoint Assignment As previously mentioned in my last post, I unfortunately did not get the chance to fully complete the assignment but from what I was able to do, I acquired the ability to embed a link in a slide that takes anyone who clicks on it to another slide if my choice. I was using this skill to create a virtual adventure slideshow that showed people how to use Kahoot! in a variety of classes.  My only complaint was that it was a little tedious and I ultimately did not have time to complete it but I did enjoy watching it come together and it was a fun and interactive way to make something that would keep others engaged in the topic I was introducing.

  My Experience with Web Design Through completing the Web Design assignment, I learned that it’s not that hard to create a website when using tools like square space and weebly that provide you with the resources to get the job done. I was also able to put my knowledge of CRAAP to use in making sure that my webpage not only displayed the information that I wanted to share but also in a way that was aesthetically pleasing and easy on the eyes. I believe that this is one of the most important aspects of creating a web page because people are drawn to easy-to-read and navigate sites so putting an emphasis on the layout of your website to make it appealing to people is a good way to boost your audience’s engagement with the site. This what I kept in mind when making my webpage ! Additionally, I was finally able to figure out how to create an embedded link. Im more of a URL girl myself and I hate having to figure out hyperlinks and embedding but it brought me peace to finally know how ...
