Jackson Pollock

This was a very difficult assignment. I found it hard to even use the application. I wasn't sure how to start because nothing ever loaded. Then I moved my mouse and a huge orange blob appeared. I kept moving my mouse around and made what I guess would be my master piece. This was a hard process to control. Then when I was finished, I tried scrolling up and down to find where to save and I couldn't find anywhere to do that. I then thought how in the world am I going to be able to save this and post it to my blog. Once I sat there for a while I remember that I could use the prnt scrn button and just add it to paint. So, when I finished playing around with the pollock application, I copied it and pasted the painting into paint. I then uploaded it to Google Docs and published it as a webpage. It was a hard process and I was able to over come the fact that I could not control the color or size of what I was actually doing with this application by just moving my mouse at different speeds.

This is the web page I used: Pollock

I think using this is the classroom would frustrate many of my students. If I had trouble with this, then I am sure they definitely would. Although it would cover ISTE NETS T Standards #1 and #2, I just feel that there is too much stress to actually incorporate this into a lesson that I may teach!
