This Week in Work Based Learning

            This week in Work Based Learning we will have been developing Introduction video. An introduction video is a short video about you and your future plans. In my introduction video I formally introduce myself and then I proceed to describe my focus elective, immediately afterward I go into my plans for the future. The point of an intro video is to try to sum yourself up in less than a minute. I feel that my introduction vide is good but I move around in the chair a little too much and it make me look nervous, on the bright side though I spoke clearly and presented myself professionally. The purpose of developing this digital media is to show potential employees and potential colleges who we are and what are plans are for the future. Personally I feel the intro vide that I did is okay but it is not the video I would have develop or submitted for college nor for a job. However this is my first introduction video and I think that I did mildly descent for my first time making an introduction video further practice is needed to develop a professional introduction for my portfolio. I am not sure what I want to add to my portfolio but I would like something with graphs.

The Multimedia and Social Media

            This week in the Work Based Learning course we, the students have developed multiple digital media sites. William Wright and I were assigned the job of developing the Work Based Learning website. How we were able to develop a web page for the Work Based Learning is through an interactive development site called Weebly.com. This website allows you to collaborate with others, who also have the log in information. Our site will help viewers see and other see what we do in the Work Base Learning class, by informing them of what we do and have done through the usage of small textual paragraphs and the use of graphic images to demonstrate what the students of the Work Based Learning class is doing or has done.
I believe Will and I preformed more than adequately in demonstrating what the Work Based Learning class is capable of doing. I haven't presented yet but I feel as that my script is perfectly adequate; however I need to work on my performance of my script. Lastly I believe that more students will be interested working and learning in the Work Based Learning course, because of the contributions that the current Northwest High School, Work Based Learning students have made. The website will briefly tell them and show them what Work Based Learning is all about, then after they visit our site the viewers will be able to click one of are multiple links to our other social media, for example one of the links take you to the WBL YouTube channel and see what we actually do in the class.
