Desktop Publishing Assignment

This assignment was fun, I was able to take a template and create a newletter for my class. Since it's the end of the year, I just did it as if I really were going to share it with my students. In order to attempt for an A for the assignment, I needed to make a flyer; I did one for the party I already had at my lake property (I did create a memo for the real party, next time, I'll do a flyer!).

Web 2.0 Sites

I've saved to my documents the websites listed in our assignment. There just wasn't enough time to really check them all out, but I did my best with the time I did have! My original intent was to develop a PPT, because I felt confident; then I decided to be brave and give Prezi a try. I'm happy with the way it turned out, but think with a bit more practice, presentations could be really interesting. Will definitely give my students the opportunity to try this (and other) sites out next year.
