Week 15: Lab 1

I cannot believe we only have two weeks left of class. Today in class you will need to work on your projects and we'll have a current events quiz.

Due dates for final project are as follows. 

Final project for my review submitted by April 25th before class--you should also turn in your peer reviews, budget with updates, storyboard and web-map on Wednesday. Monday, April 30, we will begin presentations. Each group gets 20 minutes to present their website and take questions from the class. We will be doing peer evaluations of the sites in class.

The last day of class we will finish up presentations and do evaluations. 

Week 12: Lab 1

Welcome back from spring break! Just a reminder you should email me your budget before class tomorrow:  

Budget guidelines can be found here

In class you will: work with your team on the final project,  and take a current events quiz, I'll show some examples.

Preparing for Week 5

Although your final audio assignment is not due until Monday, Feb. 20, there will be a critique class period on Wednesday. Your clip does not have to be finalized, but I would suggest you take advantage of this opportunity. Wednesday we will review the three photos assignment. Monday, Feb. 20, we will go over your three photos assignments in class. The three photos will be due before lab on Monday, Feb. 27. 

If you want feedback before you turn in your audio presentation, please bring it to class this week on Wednesday. Each student will be asked to present their audio clip and talk about why they chose to interview who they interviewed. Also bring questions for me and your classmates. You will each get three to five minutes. We will do the same thing next Monday (Feb. 20) with the three photos assignment.

We will be learning SoundSlides this week too. Make sure to download the program demo and bring your laptop to class on Monday. Directions for downloading it are on the convergence site under Week 5.

Just a reminder as to what is due this week:

• Blog and two tweets due at 5 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 11. Make sure to read my comments on your blog and make changes.
• Complete the Photoshop Elements Quiz by  11:59pm on February 10. (Required chapters: 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7). This is on Blackboard.
