Honestly, I felt like this was a tough assignment. After completing the first concept map, I was a little more familiar with using it, but I still wasn't sure about how thorough I should be. I tend to use a lot of details, so condensing everything down into a few little boxes was a struggle. The glogster activity was by far the most time consuming. I am sure I spent over two hours trying to figure it out. I used a template that was provided by the website, but it would not let me edit, so I had to start all over again (twice). I found the animoto assignment to be very interesting, and I could actually see myself using that in the future. For my free choice, I chose to create Fake Book accounts for Romeo and Juliet, which I know my students would love to do themselves! Although this assignment was very time consuming, I did learn about a few new programs that I had never heard of previously.
