Week 4 itranslate, speak it and safari.

We had a very interesting start to the lesson with exercise 13 which was about itranslate. We found out how to select the languages we required and how to clear the page before we entered the words we wanted translating. We translated from Welsh to English then reversed it to the other way round. It was great to have instant translations and to find out more about the keyboards.

We then had fun with the Speak it! app, I made a brief description of how to travel to my house from college and then experimented with selecting the different voices and listening to the instructions spoke out loud.

Our last exercise seven was using the Safari app. I used the Google search page to find out information about the Olympic Games in 2012. There was plenty of information available through Google about dates and medal tables which I used to complete the exercise. We also learned how to bookmark pages for future visits.

It was good week again with lots of fun using the different apps and I look forward to next week.
