Love Poetry Anthology- Talia

Reflection:

I think what is innovative about my visual presentation is that every slide looks different from one another and not just the same colors and fonts on every page. I generated ideas when working on this project by thinking, “If I were to read this book, what I would want it to look like and what order the pages would be.” What I like about my visual representation is that it’s filled with color. Color makes everything look more interesting. What I would improve on next time is maybe taking advantage of class time more, even though I worked on it a lot in class, I could have probably gotten more done. I learned that I can be creative enough to make the project that I pictured in my head into a reality. The platforms like Powerpoint and Flipsnack definitely make it a lot easier.

Speech Unit Reflection- Talia

During this process/unit I learned how to properly create a “works cited” page, which I think is a very useful thing to know for the future. To create my citations I used Citation Machine because to me, it was the easiest to use. Instead of looking at people’s personal opinions on why movies should be censored and restricted, I looked at the pros and cons of censorship in movies which gave me another perspective while researching. To improve my research skills, I think I could find more ways to research a topic than just type questions into the browser (use key words and stuff like that).
