The student learned to use Adobe Photoshop and Prezi software through creating a magazine and presentation for a project. They gained skills with Photoshop shortcuts, editing photos, and arranging text and images, and found Prezi an accessible alternative to Powerpoint for making interactive presentations. While initially challenging, continued use of the technologies helped the student become more proficient.

1. What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing
this product?
Throughout this project I have been able to learn and develop my skills
when using a range of different technologies. The main one I have become
more capable of using is Adobe Photoshop. Before this task, I had never
used Photoshop before so it was challenging for me to be able to create a
magazine that looks professional whilst using this software. Different things
I have learnt include keyboard shortcuts, how to edit photos, and how to
manoeuvre text and images in order to make it look like a professional
magazine.
Another technology I have become familiar with is Prezi. Usually I would
use Microsoft Powerpoint in order to make a presentation but throughout
this product I have familiarised myself with Prezi, as it is an easy and
accessible way to show my work and make interactive, interesting
presentations. It is extremely simple to use and allowed me to express my
work in different and interesting ways. Although I had issues using it to
start with, the more I used it the easier it became.
