Multimedia Today

As you can see, I'm not here today. Whenever I'm not here, what you get accomplished for the day (judged by what you post on your blog) will count as a quiz grade. Keep your sub happy. Their feedback will be taken into account regarding how well you utilized your class time. In addition, if they have any trouble with you, it'll be a detention no questions asked. Keep them happy, good feedback will make me happier which will make you happier too :)

I'll be checking the blogs this afternoon to be in grades. I hadn't done it yet, because many of you are missing things. Anything that is missing this afternoon will be put in as a zero. Check skyward and previous entries on my blog to make sure you have everything you need to.

If you need help with something, ask the person nearest you, NOT the person on the other side of the room. Even if you're having difficulty, do the best you can and get accomplished what you can and put it on your blog. If it's not on your blog, you wont get credit for it. Use command-shift-3 if you need to to post screenshots, upload work to google docs and share it with me if your having trouble, you guys are smart and can find a way if you need to.


1- Input/Output Devices
Possible helpful resources on input/output.
- Basic flash animation to help young children understand Input/Output
You are, of course, welcome to use other sources as well.

On your Blog:
First - Using the illustration below, label each item (1-11) and whether it in input or output. Click the image to enlarge it.


Second - In your own words, explain to me the difference between input, output, and input/output devices.

2- Icon Project
Try to complete this today. Once you have your icons complete, you'll need to post a massive post on your blog. What goes in it?

First
Rough sketches/plans of your icons.

Second
Completed icons created in Rome. (You can't upload the .anh file, make sure you export it as a jpg or use the screen capture technique)

Third
Evaluation- Short Answer Questions (short paragraph response to each question)
As long as your answer is reasonable and well supported, you receive credit for it. Unsupported answers do not receive any credit. These questions are applicable to all, answering nothing to any of them is deciding you'd like to get that question wrong.

What challenges did you encounter when creating your product?

How did you cope with these challenges?

What went particularly well in creating your product?

If you were to redo the project from the very beginning, what would you do different?

What is something you can take from this project that can aid you after its completion?

Forth
Bibliography- Use proper MLA Format
Citations to include: Anything that helped you with this project
These may include Adobe Rome Tutorials used to help you learn the software, websites to give you a better idea of what an icon is, websites to help provide you with inspiration for an Icon, and/or resources (check my previous blog posts) I provided that you looked at.
Forget how to cite? Use EasyBibNoodleTools, or the Owl Purdue Website. 
It should look something like this example, except obviously these sources have nothing to do with our project. 


3- Poster Project- Due Sept 27th (next Tuesday!!)
Check my district webpage for more information. In the section for multimedia documents, there is a link called 'Poster Project'.
