Media Fluency Reflection

A. How was the ease of access in building your flipbook, despite this being the free and limited version of the software?

I did not use flipbook and instead used PowerPoint since I was already familiar with it.

B. Were you able to apply the skills you learned in the planning stages appropriately to a digital environment?

Yes, we transcribed the writing from the paper cards onto the online project, then we inserted images of the subject into the PowerPoint.

C. What were the sources you researched that made this an “authentic make-believe” American Revolution flipbook?

D. Is there other software online that could have done the job better? Did you use another software instead? Explain.

I decided to use PowerPoint as my software to create the online portion of the project, since I had worked with it in the past for other projects.
