Staff guidance: Yazz Fawaz
Description/plans: STA is to find images for each word in the list and create a PowerPoint with accompanying french text on the slide.
To be completed: Nov 15, 2022
Making this PPT was actually very enjoyable because it included new vocab I learned just last week in my French class (FR 406)! Many of these words were familiar which aided me in finding the appropriate images for each slide. I imagine these PPTs are shown to the in-person French courses since I don’t see these and my class is web-based. Also, since most of the vocab was everyday food items, there were many options of photos to choose from (in contrast to 7.1B Fashion where the vocab was very culturally/geographically specific). I really like communicating with Yazz about which images accurately represent the word’s meaning. it’s almost like a mini-review session for French.
Basic Training: Learning the Principles and Elements of Design
This training was a flashback to all of the elements and principles lessons I’ve had over the years in my art classes. It was fun to be able to source images that I thought illustrated each element/principle. Oftentimes, multiple elements are at work to create an image, not just one. For instance, color can be used to emphasize objects, and lines can create movement, etc. Since all of the art itself was pretty colorful, I kept the PPT text and background color fairly simple and neutral.

Description/plans: Recolor the “Quiz” stinger to purple, and swap out the text for “Bonus Question”. Originally we wanted a lighter purple, but the legibility of it against the white was not very compatible.
