Career Week

For the blogspot today:

You are never too young to think about the things you like to do, and to identify your skills and strengths. Do some fun and creative brainstorming in answering the following questions for today's blogspot:

1. Where do you see yourself in 3 years?
2. Where do you see yourself in 7 years?
3. Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

Our hope is that you can start thinking about jobs and careers that might be of interest to you. Once you think about a potential career path, you can start to look at the skills and requirements of that career or job.

Feb 24 Revision week

This is the week to revise your documentary. You will have Tuesday and Thursday to make modifications in class. Although we will begin to move on next week, you will have additional time to revise and enhance your work.

For today's response (individual)
List at least 3 things you would like to modify right away with your documentary. Be specific. For example, if you have an interview with low audio, make sure you address low audio, don't say, 'fix audio'. We want to target problems to find solutions, particularly in the audio area.

When finished, get with your group and exchange ideas, review feedback.

To hand in today (group):
Printed list of revisions you would like to make to your project in list, with student assigned to each task or list item. Hand in to Mrs L.

Some of you will be doing hands on editing, After Effects or more. Others might be doing research to help find photos, track down audio solutions, find music, etc.

Finally, for the few people who do not have a specific role/task for the week, you will be assigned a Linkedin career research project to present to the class next week.

Documentary and Gilded Age

This blogspot requires an individual response. At this point, you may have an individual response to the question that may be influential in how your group perceive's the integration of history into documentary. Please provide a response per person and identify the group you are in.

Your documentary should provide a connection/link to the Gilded Age in terms of identification of a reformer, their reform and the condition leading to the reform. Identify these 3 facets of interest and how you intend to integrate them seamlessly in your documentary.

Does providing a connection to history strengthen your premise and essential question? Why/Why not?
