Literacy Narrative Digital Project

For my digital presentation, I plan on using iMovie. I have used iMovie plenty of times in the past for school and with my friends. I plan on using pictures to help illustrate my narrative as I voice over the video. I think I movie will be the best option because I will be able to line up my audio with my images smoothly.

iGen Webinar Reaction

As I listened to the webinar, there were some things that stuck out to me. One was I felt like sometimes it felt like our generation was being viewed as worse than previous generation. Something I wondered when I was listening was if loneliness, depression, and anxiety rates are really higher today, or is it just more acceptable to be open about how you feel. I didn’t relate to some of the things that were being said about our generation. For example, I don’t think my time with friends or social skills have been affected by the time I spend online. I spend a lot of time online, but I still hung out with my friends and talked to people face to face all the time. I know that it is possible that there are plenty of kids missing out on those things, my experiences have been different. I found it odd that one of the negatives of how our generation is raised is how we won’t be as experienced is drinking and sex from a younger age. I would assume that you wouldn’t want your children drinking before the age of 21 or at all, but it seemed like she was saying it is a good thing to experience things like that early on, so you’re smarter and more experienced when doing those things. . This is a very different way of thinking than what I’ve been taught and experienced.

Little Seagull Handbook

As I was flipping through the Little Seagull Handbook, I noticed something that will really help me. In the book, there is a little section on punctuation marks with quotations. Even though I’ve been taught it, it is something I struggle with. I am always unsure about where to place periods or commas, so I am sure I will be visiting this section regularly.
