Couchsurfing

Joined up.  Started a profile.  As this is the default state of our couch and the room that it sits in, and since my in-laws prefer a hotel to the cramped shoebox that is our ranch house, I don't think I'm going to be offering the couch at this time.  I do think the site is very interesting, and would definitely think about hosting in the future!

I don't know how to share a link to my profile - but my user name is jennyhbunn.

Final Project: Individual Project

I used Pixton to create a series of three comic strips that (in a very tiny nutshell) describe my experience in the class. I'm not a comic strip aficionado, but I thought this platform was a lot of fun and could be used in many different ways in the classroom and beyond. I also wanted to put all the comic strips together with a very short tutorial (longer one can be found in the group tutorial project) in an interesting way, so I used Prezi.

Hope you enjoy it!

Not REALLY a "Weekly Video," but -

Some of you guys have seen this from the other class, but I really like it, so I thought I'd post it here!

Project Planning

Fun Group Project: G+ Dogs
What happens when dogs use social media, specifically Google+ hangouts?

• Write script on Google Docs that is easily editable by classmates
• Set dates and times to rehearse and record
• Think through and acquire any costuming pieces
• Jason to record, Jenny records backup

Serious Group Project: Web 2.0 Tutorials

After examining many different platforms, I have chosen to do a tutorial on Timetoast.

• Brainstorm topic for timeline - To Kill a Mockingbird related? 
• Research events for timeline
• Create timeline and record tutorial
• Share tutorial on Youtube and send to Jason for class blog that will include tutorials from all classmates

Individual Project: CI5530 Comics

Using Pixton, I will create comics based on this class, as well as a tutorial showing how to use the program.

• Comic 1: use Pixton's basic model (includes everything but the text) for beginning of class - just getting started, learning the ropes, etc.
• Comic 2: use a set of three blank squares for middle of class - starting to feel more comfortable
• Comic 3: use a double line of blank squares for ending the class - feeling more confident and creative
• Film tutorial at some point along the way - maybe while creating Comic 2?  Maybe bits and pieces from all three?

The "Isn't This Cool?" Files: Flipsnack

I just thought this was super cool (and super easy), so I'm posting it!  I created a pdf study guide for an upcoming performance of To Kill a Mockingbird at Asheville Community Theatre and then put it into Flipsnack to get this:
