Week 12 Blog Post

For this week's blog assignment, please visit the Wordle website at http://www.wordle.net/ . Once at the site, click on the "Create Your Own" link. You will be given a place to copy and paste a document. Please choose a paper that you have already written and have saved. The paper could be your Narrative Essay or a paper from any other class. Click "Go." You should then see a visual representation of your paper appear. You may then hit the "Randomize" button to change the design, or you can play with the language/color/font buttons at the top of the page. Once you have a design that you like, click on "Save to Public Gallery." You can enter in your name or leave it Anonymous. Once you save the design, you will see a code appear at the bottom. Then, you will want to copy and paste that code into your blog post. Make sure that you are in "Edit Html" mode in order to paste the text. Finally, make sure to write a minimum 150 word paragraph reflection on the Wordle. You may reflect on the three largest words or make a creative entry. It's up to you! Here's mine...

Blog Assignment Week 15

lengthy and well-developed reflection of the entire semester. You may comment on anything related to the course from your own performance to individual assignments, and most importantly, respond to the blog itself. It will be very helpful to me to have your feedback, so that I can make adjustments to how I structure future classes. Thank you so much for a wonderful semester! I really enjoyed reading each and every one of your blogs, and I wish you all the luck in the future.

Blog Assignment Week 14

There is no blog for this week. Have a great holiday!

Blog Assignment Week 13

For this week's blog, please write a well-developed paragraph reflecting/responding to your Process and Informative Speeches. Since you were not required to do a blog last week, you should make this one as lengthy and detailed as possible. Discuss what it felt like to give the speeches. Where did you struggle? Where did you excel? How did you improve from one speech to the next? Do you feel any different about public speaking now that you have done the two speeches? Remember, you are going to be addressing the class again during the team presentation, so you might want to reflect on how you should improve for that assignment, as well.

Reminder for Class M 11/16 and T 11/17

This is just a reminder that for class on M and T, you will need to come prepared for another Gallery Walk. Please bring with you your Informative Speech Outline printed in landscape layout in size 20 or 24 font.

See you in class!
