A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words or Sometimes About 40.

This week we were asked to pick from two prompts titled, "Write a fan letter" or "What are the secrets of your trade? What would you lose by sharing them? What would you gain?" Instead of picking between the two prompts suggested I chose the prompt titled, "Pictures can say whatever we want them to say. (Come up with your own captions.)"

This page shows six columns. The first three are triangles and the last three are circles. I answered the first row then had two friends answer the next two rows. The two friends I had answer the bottom two rows are engineers and I think some of their answers help show that. I found when I asked them to answer all they could think of were math equations used to solve for triangles and circles. I find the different perspectives very interesting.

I chose to make this collaborative because we have been doing collaborative work in class. By working on a collaborative social media presentation, a collaborative narrative, and now this prompt I have noticed that no collaboration is the same. Even when working with the same people on a different collaboration the ending result is still different.

I think collaboration and group work is a great experience. It is a way for people to find skills in themselves that they didn't know they had. People are able to build off of each other and find and create ideas and make amazing things, like our collaborative narratives.


I guess this page just goes to show that a picture is worth a thousand words or in this case about 40 words.

Favorite Method(s) of Procrastination

This week we had the option to pick between the two prompts titled, "Describe your favorite method of procrastination. Can you come up with a more productive one?" or "Chart your latest project against this shape. In what ways does it match? In what ways does it differ?" As per usual, both prompts sparked my interest but when it came down to picking one I chose the one titled, "Describe your favorite method of procrastination. Can you come up with a more productive one?" One of my most common methods of procrastination, like many of my peers, is my phone. Social media, texting, and music are my main problems when it comes to turning to my phone instead of my schoolwork or whatever else I am supposed to be doing. I would say my next most common method is food. When I am working on something I am constantly thinking about everything in my kitchen cupboards and refrigerator. I am constantly snacking and it drives me crazy. I should probably weigh like 50...

Florida Fun- Final Project

My project consists of an Instagram and a website. The Instagram is titled “ summerfloridafun, ” while the website is titled, “ Florida Fun .” It took a lot of patience to create my project because I used Wix to create my website and this was my first time using Wix . My goal for this project was to outline my many adventures I took while living and visiting Florida over the past three summers. The purpose was also to keep track of where I was and what I was doing and how I felt when going on these many adventures. My process was a complicated one. It always takes me forever to get an inspiration or idea. My idea took me awhile to fully get in my brain. I know I wanted to expand on my location based narrative but I didn’t know how. I wanted to do something that meant something to more than myself and that would get people interested. The technology I used was my macbook, Wix, and Instagram, along with Google . The three characteristics I used were location based, nonlinear, and...
