Portfolio Item 2 has just been completed. And thank god its done may i add lol! I found that producing the task and its MSWORD elements was quite simple as i have quite a profound prior knowledge of MSWORD and its devices from school assessments and such. From choosing the appropriate fonts, to aligning paragraphs and further to inserting graphics and such the document activities were profoundly simple.

I found this portfolio item to be slightly tedious as prior to uni i was familiar with Boolean searching methods and so have always felt quite confident when searching for specifics online. I suppose though that the activity did have its benefits whereby i can now conclude that the google search engine coupled with Boolean searching methods is more effective in granting helpful and matching documents.

I suppose that by completing a task such as this that i will be more able and *slightly more knowledgeable in instructing my future classes in effective searching methods and engines online. As most classwork i predict is surely going to be demonstrated via smartboards i feel that i will easily be able to model correct searching methods and such now, so that the younger people i will be teaching will feel confident and proficient in searching methods, aiding them long into their teens and further, when dealing with searches on interests, for essays and such.

BTW! Easter was fun!
