DP Update and Sound Recording by Friday 5/2

The following are the tasks you will need to accomplish by the end of the day by Friday, 5/2.

 
1. Take photos of your book to post on your DP. Please use a photos of just your book. I do have photos of you reading your book if you would like to use them in addition to the photos of your book.
 
2. Use Windows Movie Maker or Imovie to upload the photos of your book.  
 
3. Use Audacity, or other voice recording program to record yourself reading your book and post to your DP.   You may also be prompted to download a Lame MP3 encoder.
 
4. Upload the audio with your photos on Movie Maker or Imovie. 
 
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO USE AUDACITY.  If you have another program you know better go with that!  If you are using a Mac you can use Garage Band for the audio and Imovie for the video. 
 
5. You will need to upload your video to Youtube.  When you are using your Animas Gmail account you will have access to this.    Once you have uploaded your video you can copy the URL and paste it in your DP.
 
Here is the rubric I will be using to grade this portion. 

 
Here is an example I made in 10 minutes.


6. Take the End of Project survey for AHS.

7. Take the Los Cuentos Infantiles Project Feedback survey for class.

8. Write your project reflection and post to your DP (See requirements below)
  • Write an objective paragraph in English summarizing the project
  • Write a reflection paragraph in English of your thoughts on the project. Include such things as your favorite parts of the project, what you learned, or what you would change.
