Experiencing Group

I worked with three other students for our Sedu 183 research project. We researched the changes in education from the 18th century to the 21st century. We split the the topic up so that each member researched one century. To record our research and ideas we used Google Docs. Google Docs is similar to microsoft word but it is online and more than one person can see the document. When one member of the document changes something or adds to the document every other member can see this change being made. Google Docs was a very helpful tool for this kind of project because it was so easy to see what our group members were working on and what kind of information they were finding. We then could use this information to assist in finding additional information for our research paper.

After we had researched our topic we had to present our findings. We chose to use Prezi, an online presentation creator. Prezi is sort of like powerpoint but is more like a timeline. The template we chose was a path with footsteps going through it. It also had big text bubbles throughout the path to put pictures or text in. We used these bubbles to place pictures in our presentation of education in
