Lesson plans

The lesson plan that I enjoyed the most was creating the instructions. The though process of putting the steps and making it coherent was challenging. I had to write something that would enable me to share my knowledge and pass it on. I wanted to make sure that it was done so that anyone could create this product by following my instructions. This project was more than just writing or examining something. All of the information had to be clarified , presented in a correct order and be reasonably easy to understand. I like a challenge. This was my favorite lesson plan by far. The idea of tech doc work is really interesting and most of all challenging. I enjoyed the challenege and feel like I learned a lot about writing.

Job wanted

The job that I would like, when I finally graduate is a writing job. I am passionate about writing and like working with people. That is why I want to be a proposal writer and a job at Boston University would be key. It would also allow me to further my education by working in a educational environment and having a chance to attend BU affordably. Working with others, creating written works were my creativity can flow and working as at team is what I desire in a job. This job would be great.

Power point-Tom Porter

Power point is a excellent tool for presentations but it is only a partial tool in the whole presentation. It has to be short because it is a visual and just supports the information presented. I think the key is to keep it simple and focus on the audience not the slides. It seem to be an outline to assist you in covering all the information. As we read in the book, visuales can state things that words can not. Powerpoint helps but is not the whole deal.

Bridgewater Doc. Tom Porter

The best source I have found to help me on this assignment is on the Bridgewater page under prospective students. There is info on undergrad, grad and continuing ed.,. Info about groups, clubs and organizations that are located on campus and info about sports teams and activities. There are many links to help with info needed to create an informative doc. This site has links to technology and a campus map to make accessing the needed info easy. I am going to start here. This I believe is an excellent source. Here is the link if you want to check it out. http://www.bridgew.edu/prospstudents.cfm
