I got a head start on the executive summary and the poster due to traveling over the holiday. I am glad I did because it certainly took the pressure off of me a bit this last and final week so that I can focus on creating and editing my video for our final presentation. I had 2 students in our class go over my poster with a fine tooth comb (thank you!) and I feel that it is finished. I decided against justifying my text and left aligned it.
I am most concerned about creating a final product for July 18th. I have decided to challenge my self to learn how to use Moovly to create my final video. I did this because my macbook is giving me issues so I cannot use Imovie. I want to be able to import my 90 second adobe spark video into a full length video. So far it is working well but I need to find the quiet uninterupted time to create the screencast. This is a challenge with a child at home!

I "think" I am done with a rough draft of my poster. I ended up finishing the executive summary first because I knew I would much rather edit a poster than work on another written paper. Writing is not my strength. I was glad that I went ahead and fleshed out the executive summary before starting my poster. I had to further narrow down what I had written in the executive summary to an even smaller chunk. I also only references one document that was not a published journal article. I am wondering if that will be a problem. I cited a CDE publication which states that all students need to know the ethical use of technology and that access to technology should not be another achievement gap.
I struggled with the formatting of the poster a bit. I looked at the samples and I felt that having an image as my entire background was really distracting and not eye appealing. I ended up using the exact colors of my logo as my background and I added the image from my logo onto the top of the poster. I had to make some adjustments to the sizes of the boxes and move some of the information around to make it fit that size poster with a size 30 font. I also ended up justifying my text because I liked how that looked. Please give me feedback if you think that the justified text is hard to read. Link to my poster: |
