Write an MLA format paper which meets all MLA guidelines. You can use Microsoft Word, Open Office, or Google Docs. I will not accept a paper that is not MLA format. These guidelines include: 1 inch margins (not 1.25); Name, Class, Period and Date in a block in the upper right corner; double-spaced; roman font; page numbers on second and following pages only (not on first page) in the format “lastname 1” (last name space page number, set up in the header); indent or extra space between paragraphs (but not both). This paper should have structure: introduction, body paragraphs, conclusion.

Topic: A general explanation of what you have learned in this semester and then three specific things you have learned and how you will apply them (how you will use them).

When you finish the paper submit it as an attachment to an email to me before the end of the exam period. The subject line of the email MUST BE: “Fall 2009 Exam.”

If the paper is not MLA format, if it does not have at least five paragraphs or if it is not attached to an email sent before the end of the final exam period, IT WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.

Use this checklist to be sure you get a 100:

1. Margins are 1 inch on all sides
2. Name is in the ID block in the upper right corner.
3. Class is in the ID block in the upper right corner.
4. Class Period is in the ID block in the upper right corner.
5. Date is in the ID block in the upper right corner.
6. The entire paper is double spaced.
7. The entire paper is in a Roman font like Times New Roman.
8. There are page numbers on all of the pages EXCEPT the first page.
9. The page number is formatted with your last name and the page number.
10. The paper has an intro, three body paragraphs and a conclusion – 5 paragraphs total.

You have two weeks to work on the first 8 lessons in Photoshop.

Your grade will be determined by percent of work completed.

Lessons 1-4 = 50

Lessons 1-5 = 65

Lessons 1-6 = 75

Lessons 1-7 = 90

Lessons 1-8 = 100

If you are absent Friday Dec. 11, be sure to arrange to have your work graded at another time.

We will continue in Photoshop through Lesson 11 so if you finish three, just keep going.

Lessons 4-8 are due Friday Dec. 11, the last work week of this six weeks.

You will only have internet access for the first 5 minutes of class so check this and then get to work!

Today, after I check your completed Flash lessons, you should start on Photoshop Classroom in a Book.

Finish Lesson 1-3 this week.

In Lesson 1, you only have to read until page 17, then do the lesson up to page 38.

I will check the lessons you have finished in Flash on Friday, 11/20.

I will take a Flash movie (file format “swf”) as a finished product for each lesson.

To do this, all you have to do is take the file when you are finished and export it as a movie (in the File menu). They must be saved into a folder called “Flash Final Product” on your H drive to get credit.

Your grade will be determined by how many lessons you have finished and are in the folder.

If you have lessons 1-3 completed, you will receive a 70.

If you have lessons 1-4 completed, you will receive an 80.

If you have lessons 1-5 completed, you will receive a 90.

If you have lessons 1-6 completed, you will receive a 100.

You will only receive credit for the lessons which are exported as a movie and saved according to the instructions above.

Take the quiz before the end of class today.

It is located here:

S:\shared\students\Bjerke\CApps\Flash Quiz

Open the file that is called Flash.htm with your browser.

If you submit your quiz more than once, you will receive the lowest grade submitted.

You have until Friday, 11/20 to finish the six lessons in Flash that we will be working on. If you finish all six by next Friday, you get a 100  for the first two of this six weeks.

Let’s see if we can finish Lesson 2 in flash today.

Begin with Chapter 1.

Chapter 2 is due on Friday.

S:\shared\students\Bjerke\CAMM\CiAB\Flash

Create a new folder on your H drive called “Flash” and save all of your work there.

Now that you have played with Pivot, try telling a short story.

Write three sentences in your blog that tell a very simple, very short story. Then create an animation that tells the story. Then write about how you showed what happened with your animation.

For example,

Story:

John ran up to a horse. John hopped onto the horse. John rode away.

See? A short, simple story.

Then write in your blog how you showed what happened.

Animation:

John walks from left to right. John hops magically onto the horse. They ride off to the right.

This is due at the end of class tomorrow, Wednesday.
