Any Advice?

My advice for next year's computer students is pretty simple. Even if you think you know how to do everything, you should still go to class. You are bound to find out things you didn't already know. Also, the assignments are a lot easier if you did practice ones in class with the teacher's help. By going to class, your homework is less stressful and less time consuming.

Our Websites

My three favorite websites were Ashley's, Brittany's, and Andrew's. Brittany's was really creative and her home page looked amazing. The way Andrew presented himself through his Trinity experiences was really unique. Ashley's website also looked good and it had a personal touch to it.

The Importance of Understanding HTML Codes

Like many other things in life, web designing has shortcuts such as software programs. Although it is great to have access to software like Microsoft Expression, it can only get you so far. If something goes wrong on a website or within Microsoft Expression, a designer who knows and can use HTML code could have the problem fixed very quickly, but a person who only understands the software would have a much harder time. The difference between knowing and using HTML code and using software is comparable to the difference between memorizing and understanding; understanding gives you the ability to apply your knowledge to more unique situations.

Impressive PowerPoint Presentations

I was really impressed with everyone's presentations last week! My two favorite presentations were Leigh-Ann's and Andrew's. Leigh-Ann did a really good job showing effective uses of ethos, pathos, and logos within marketing. Even after she did a great job presenting, she went the extra mile and showed a really effective Dove video clip. The clip was a perfect example of what she had just discussed, which was a great way to wrap up her presentation. Andrew gave an extremely enthusiastic presentation about finance which helped draw in the audience. He also made the topic relevant to the listeners by concentrating on one comparative scenario. Both presentations were aesthetically pleasing, well organized, interesting, and informative. Although I've only mentioned these two presentations, all of them were very good and I enjoyed listening to them.
