Assignments and Schedules

Since we don't have class next week due to Thanksgiving, I want to make sure you all understand the assignments that you should be working on.

When you come back from the break, you should have your script and storyboard completed, meaning that everything's written and chunked and you have all of your pictures in order in PowerPoint with their accompanying narration. Additionally, you should find your music and/or sound effects. In short, you should have everything ready for the production of your digital story.

If you need any reminders or want to watch examples, I recommend the following sites:

Keep in mind the requirements and rubric for this assignment found in the previous post.

ALSO - our final has been scheduled. Remember that education finals are scheduled differently than other finals on campus, so none of your education courses should overlap with each other when all is said and done. If you have a conflict with another class on campus, let me know and we'll try to make other arrangements. The schedule is as follows:

Section 1: 7-9am Monday, December 10th
Section 3: 1-3pm Monday, December 10th

We will not have an examination final. Rather, you will be presenting your digital stories. Attendance at the final is required, mandated by the college.

Speaking of which, please be sure to attend class for the next couple of weeks. The production of the digital stories can get intense and we'll have end-of-class business to take care of, so you really need to attend. Also, attendance can make a difference in your grade if you're on the edge.
