a. What went well?
-What went well was the amount and quality of the research we discovered.  Each of us was given a certain part of the project to research and each of us found high quality reliable resources.

b. What did not?
-Because most of us were doing individual research and it was all put together by one person, while presenting we were a little unorganized.  However by the second time we had everything together and could tell our story. 

c. What would you do differently next time?
Maybe during the making of the infograph everyone would be a little more part of the creation process. 

d. Specifically comment on the 10 tips for effective infographics -
Be Concise
Be Visual
Be Smarter
Be Transparent
Be Different
Be Accurate
Be Attractive
Be Varied
Be Gracious
Be Creative
Which of these areas did you excel in? Which were not so well represented? Why do you think some elements of design were easier or harder to include in the end product?
I believe we excelled in being concise, visual, smarter, different, accurate, attractive, varied, and creative.  Maybe not so much in the transparent and gracious.  Mostly because I am not sure how to be gracious in an infographic.

Found out one of my best friend's brother was killed in a car accident. I'm doing all I can to be there for her

"It's a plain European-style yogurt.  It comes in four sizes and it's all about the toppings."

Let me tell you, it's so delicious, you don't even need any toppings!

1) La topografía de Guatemala es muy variada.  Hay montañas, volcanes, costas y playas.  La mayoría de la población es maya.  La guerra civil de Guatemala fue 36 años y terminó en 1992.  

2) Aprendí que Rigoberta Menchú ganó el Premio Nobel de la paz para su lucha para derechos humanos en Guatemala.  Ella es maya y habla quiché, pero aprendió español y escribió un libro.  Estuvo perseguido por sus raíces.  

Today is the first day this spring that i've had allergies. And I am ecstatic. Not because I particularly like being groggy and having a stuffed up/runny nose but because this feels like a miracle compared to how I usually feel, and for the entire spring. I guess the allergy shots are working after all. :] :] :]

I managed to found some paper to write a journal, so I figured id write down what is going on, I have awoken on an island, and do not know where I am located, last I remember I was on a mission to defend the U.S from an Attack from an unknown life force. I have no weapon no nothing, so I acted quickly to create a shelter. I have made some basic tools to help me dig, and a box to store my stuff in, the wildlife seems to consist of wild dogs, pigs, and cows. the night is peaceful. I hope to cook some pork tomorrow after some hunting

Tape + people = wrap yourself up in tape.

Link to presentation!!

Reflection:

a. What went well?
The things that went well with the group is that we had a lot of knowledge about our topic and we knew how we wanted to present that knowledge to our peers.
b. What did not?
The things that did not go well with the group is that sometimes the whole group was not together in one place, and sometimes we could not find all the info we needed so we needed to do deeper research.
c. What would you do differently next time?
The things that we said we would try to do differently is to make sure we are all on ethe same page about what information we have found.
d. Specifically comment on the 10 tips for effective infographics -

Be Concise: This makes sure that everyone you are presenting to knows and gets all the knowledge that you have.

Be Visual: If the visual is attractive then people will gravitate to your project and want to know more about it.

Be Smarter: If you think deeper about your topic then you will have more ideas and have a better project overall.

Be Transparent: If you can see your project how someone else would see your project then you can make your project that much better.

Be Different: People like different because it is appealing so you should always be different.

Be Accurate: If someone is reading your project it needs to be accurate so that people can know exactly what you are saying.

Be Attractive: If you project looks good it will make people feel good!

Be Varied: have some differences and some debates on you topic that is always interesting to a reader or viewer.

Be Gracious: The topic is a sensitive one depending on who's point of view you are telling it in so be mindful of the  different types of people that will or may be reading it.

Be Creative: creativity is always is a plus because it shows how much time and effort you put into giving a good.

Which of these areas did you excel in? I excel in transparency and creativity Which were not so well represented? varied and gracious  Why do you think some elements of design were easier or harder to include in the end product? Sometimes this happens because there are so many things that you want to focus one that you forget the little things that make that difference in whether someone likes the project or doesn't.

sums it all up.
