Turning in/Posting all assignments

You need to make sure that you have posted all the assignments for this class.  If you have all assignments posted you need to work on updating your about.me profile.  All typed assignments must have proper spelling and punctuation ( I not i, etc.).  If you do not have a grade for an assignment on your schoolloop account that means that you don't have credit for that assignment.  It is your responsibility to complete each assignment and make sure that it gets graded.

Wasting time on anything other than the required assignments for this class is not acceptable.  If you are 100% done with all the assignments for this class, then help someone that isn't 100% done.

Business Cards

On Tuesday May 24th we will be completing the business card assignment for this class.

Your proof will be the word document file in your desktop folder and displayed in a blog post, like this.

Color Self Portrait

Your color self portrait is due on Friday, May 20th.

Progress Reports on Wednesday May 18

Your progress report grade will be based on all of the assigned projects up to and including the color self portrait.  If you have not completed past projects your grade will suffer.

The first project in AI is a lined self portrait.

Your blog post will be titled  Lined Self Portrait

and look something like this.

due date is Friday, April 29.

Compare and Contrast

Go to this site and read a review from a movie that you have already seen.  Type the name of the film in the search box.  After reading the review, you are going to write a blog post comparing/contrasting your opinions about the film and Roger Ebert's opinions.  Do not summarize the movie!  Write about your specific opinions of the movie and Roger Ebert's opinions.

Make sure that you detail your opinions (what you think and why you think it).  If your opinion is similar to Roger Ebert's you need to give details where it is a little different.

Include at least 1 picture from the movie (movie poster, etc.) and 1 link to the Roger Ebert review.

This blog assignment needs to be at least 150 words, correct grammar, spelling, etc.

Today and Spring Break

All assignments must be completed today to receive full credit.  Any assignments not done today will be graded as a zero (0).  When the assignment is eventually finished, you will earn only 5 out of the possible 10, because it was late.

Over the break;

1. create a Twitter account and link it to your about.me page
2. create a Youtube account and link it to your about.me page
3. post at least one (1) update on Twitter.

Some of you have already created/linked one or both of these accounts.  Just make sure that you post at least one (1) update on Twitter over the break.  Set a date on your phone's calendar, write yourself a note, send yourself an email or whatever you need to do to not forget to do all 3 of these things.

I will be giving you a grade on the Monday that we return.  You will get a ten (10) if all 3 things are done.  You will get a zero (0) if any of the 3 are not done (including the post on Twitter).
