Peer Review Feedback

So the peer review process is finally over. After going into the peer review section to see my review, I discovered that 3 people had done a review each for me so I got plenty of feedback!

The feedback that I received was very constructive and gave me lots of ideas on how to improve my task 2! A couple of people that did a review for me said that I needed to make my instructions for how to contribute to my social network easier. I took this on board and made sure my instructions were step by step and very simple. I also tried using my instructions on different technology tools, such as my pc, an iPad and a macbook laptop. I wanted to make sure that they worked on anything so that I wouldn't get marked down. My peers also gave me some feedback about my actual website. They suggested that I add more visuals (links, images) to it, so I created a few hyperlinks on words/terms that I thought people might not know or understand such as 'tumblr' or 'microblogging'.

The thing that I have struggled with most in this task is the process of converting my power point presentation to a PDF document. I have the 2003 version of powerpoint and am not able to simply save it as a PDF. After many hours of continuously searching, 'powerpoint to pdf converter' I finally found a site that helped me. This site allowed me to upload my powerpoint presentation and then after around an hour they sent me an email with my converted PDF document. In this hour I was very stressed out as I thought it would not work, so I downloaded many converter tools, thinking that they would be faster. I was very, very confused with most of these and I think the one I eventually ended up using from the start was the easiest to navigate around and there were only a couple of simple steps to follow.

Here is a little preview of my power-point instructions!

Finally, I have almost completed task 2! After many long hours sitting at the computer screen lost at what to do next, I feel as though it is ready. I have to finish a couple of minor touch ups with my website and my blog but they shouldn't take me all night - I hope.

This task has definitely been more challenging then task 1, although I still found it quite enjoyable. I love learning new things and new concepts that I haven't even heard about. I didn't even know that I could make a PDF document from a powerpoint and i'm still not entirely sure the PDF document has worked and loaded properly. Ah well, I am quite happy with how my progress through this task has been and I look forward to seeing my results. :)

Thanks for reading once again!

HAPPY EASTER!
