REFLECTIONS
a. Describe what you had to do in the assignment.
In this assignment students were asked to choose an out of country destination and create a tourist bureau website that would persuade a person to travel to the destination. The destination I chose to work on was Italy. I included accommodations, restaurants, weather, air fare, how to travel around Italy, local history, currency, attractions. Lastly student had to embed a video as well as an animation that would enhance the website.
b. Describe the technology skills you had to use to complete this assignment.
For this project the technology skills I had to use was Google Chrome, Microsoft Word, G mail, Weebly, and Go Animate.
I used Google Chrome to find information on Italy as well as some pictures for the individual pictures and for the banners. I also used Google Chrome to find the You Tube video that i embedded into my website. I used Microsoft Word to complete my bio plan. I used G mail to send my finished work to Mrs. Darmody and I used Weebly to build my website as well as to find more useful pictures to use on the website. I used Go Animate to create my animation about the restaurants in Italy and embedded it onto my restaurant page of my website.
c. Describe what you learned and accomplished by creating this piece of work.
During this website making process I learned how to embed a you tube video into Weebly. I also learned how to find reliable information to supply information to the public and also be able to persuade the reader. I accomplished making a website that would not only interest a reader but also persuade the reader to travel to Italy.
d. Explain what you did well in this assignment?
The thing I personally did the best was the pictures and the banners. I used useful and also interesting pictures for my banner that would jump out at the readers and make them want to read on and the pictures that went along with my text were useful to show the reader what each thing i was talking about actually looked like. I also think that I did a good job on the animation by making it entertaining as well as making it enhance the information that I wrote about through the web page.
e. Explain what you would do differently to improve your work in this assignment?
To improve my work I would have made the text and p[pictures larger ad bolder to take away some of the unneeded white spots throughout the page. I would also find another video t embed on a different page to enhance the project even more.
