Picture of the Week- http://learning.blogs.nytimes.com/2014/09/08/whats-going-on-in-this-picture
What’s Going On in This Picture?
Directions
1. After looking closely at the image above, think about these three questions:
- What’s going on in this picture?
- What do you see that makes you say that?
- What more can you find?
3. After you have posted, try reading back to see what others have said, then respond to someone else by posting another comment. Use the “@” symbol to address that student directly.
Each Monday, our collaborators, Visual Thinking Strategies, will facilitate a discussion from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. Eastern time by paraphrasing comments and linking to responses to help students’ understanding go deeper. You might use their responses as models for your own.
4. On Friday, we will reveal more information at the bottom of this post about the photo. How does reading the caption and learning its “back story” help you to see the image differently?

Famous Journalist Research Project/ Pretzi-
Use your Google classroom for all the information
Requirements:
- Your Pretzi presentation should include the following in a well organized, well written report (in your own words):
- biography of his/her life
- how he/she became a journalist
- highlights of his/her career
- what he/she is known for, remembered for
- include any special pioneering aspects of his/her career
- views he/she held about journalism (and related fields, like photojournalism), politics, war, society, etc.
- other interesting details that make your report complete
- a photo or illustration of your reporter
- snippets of or samples of his/her work (photos, article excerpts, etc.)
- a works cited page on your pretzi, cite your sources (you need a minimum of two sources); this page should be your last slide.
- As you present your report, be sure that you are not merely reading what is on the slide, but that you are speaking to your audience (that's us) and developing the ideas fully.
- Do not make your slides difficult to read or see. Use color schemes that are easy on the eye. Do not add too many bells and whistles, but do make your presentation visually appealing. Make the tone of the slide match the tone of your person. (Serious=serious). You must have at 7 slides minimum but no more than 12.
- Save your Pretzi on your P:/ drive to run it from there. You will also turn in to Google classroom. It's a good idea to make a back up copy on a jump drive.
Topic due- 11/3/2016
Research and Pretzi – due ON Monday - In Goggle classroom
Presentations begin on Tuesday 11/8 at the beginning of the hour.
This is worth 50 Points.
