Senior Project Link

The theme of our group project was a time travel. We basically incorporated pictures from last year and this year showing how much we changed over the past 2 years. I helped decided what pictures to use for the video and also what music would best suit the theme. Then I downloaded the music onto the flash drive. The hardest part of the Senior Project was having to come up with a different idea after the lip-dub at prom failed. The easiest part of the Senior Project was picking out the pictures to use but that soon became a challenge when we were creating the video because of the resolution.

Capstone Presentation Recap

At my booth I had my computer, a gavel, my infographic, my survey, a display of a photo line-up, and a bowl of candy. My capstone presentation went better than I expected. I had Mr. Miller and Mrs. Jett as my judges and they were nice. The hardest part was when I was asked one question that I did not know the answer to, but since the question had to do with advances in technology I presented an answer that involved technology as a solution to the problem of wrongful convictions. I did not get any negative feedback and they told me that I did great afterwards. The most fun was being one of the first ones to be judged so that I did not have to stand at my booth the whole night. I got the chance to look at other amazing booths and test out their end product. I am glad that I was apart of this and relieved that it is over. I am really anxious to know the score that I made. Honestly, it was an experience that I will never forget and I am thankful for it. It taught me some life long skills that I can use forever.

Capstone Presentation Assets

For my Capstone Presentation I will have my info graphic poster, my completed website, and the PSA will be on my website. I want to get a stand so that my info graphic can stand on it's own. I will also have a table cloth that i can lay my props on. Other than the main components I plan to have a gavel. In order to get the attention of others I'm going to have candy.

Infographic Poster

My infographic relates to my Capstone Project because it is coincides with the information i presented in my 15 page essay. It also gives the reader a visual guide to how my paper is organized and it sends you to my end product. 
I did not have to do any more research in order to complete my infographic. 
The easiest part about creating my infographic was putting in the information that I found from previous research. The hardest part was masking the pictures into the circles so that they are all aligned and centered.
I created my original infographic during Winter Term but I had to make some changes so that it fit the criteria for this class. For instance, I had to change the dimensions and delete some of my information.
Currently I have to change some of the things that my classmates pointed out during my presentation, but other than that I am finished.
