Evaluating Multimedia:

I just took a look at the evaluation for our project and I think we are presently doing a great job on most fronts. I think we need to add a sitemap as I know it is a component that I use often when trying to navigate once I’m lost. That would be one thing that I like about using Frontpage, it creates the sitemap for you.

I think we did a great job on the creativity portion. We chose something that is relevant to where kids are today. I think the structure is good as is, or could be easily morphed to meet the needs of the students involved.

Visual literacy is going to be an area I need to work on, personally. I didn’t score so well on the on-line test and I guess it has become more apparent to me that images are important. They must add to the information presented and not distract from the meaning. The same thing holds true for PowerPoint presentations. I read a good blog on PowerPoint recently that housed a great video on “powerpoint extreme makeover”. Too often we get caught up in the animations and “fancy stuff” and we forget how to created presentations that are thought provoking and communicate the desired message.
