Feb 3, 2011 - Welcome to the Mind of Lobb

Greetings.

My name is Mr. The Lobb, and I am here to make you smarter.

The following paragraph is what the Ontario Ministry of Education says about this course:

Communications Technology, Grade 11, University/College    (TGJ3M)

• This course examines communications technology from a media perspective.
• Students will develop knowledge and skills as they design and produce media projects in the areas of live, recorded, and graphic communications.
• These areas may include TV, video, and movie production; radio and audio production; print and graphic communications; photography; digital imaging; broadcast journalism; and interactive new media.
• Students will also develop an awareness of related environmental and societal issues, and will explore college and university programs and career opportunities in the various communications technology fields.

Is that confusing enough for you?

How about we break it down into pieces, and examine those pieces one day at a time (weekdays only) until June or something.

Wouldn't that be a lot easier?

And so, here on Day 1, we can start with this:

Who is Mr. The Lobb?
What does he want from me?
Why am I here?
Do I want this?
How do I win this game?
What do we study?

And more fun yet:


This will help you with your first assignment:

What Do We Do, Mr. Wolf? Feb 3, 2011 (GHD+1)

We make a blog at www.blogger.com

To do that: We need a google account, a gmail address and the ability to get online on a computer

We add some pics, some vids, some music

We show Mr. the Lobb who and what WE are by showing him some of the things that WE like and enjoy – music, movies, TV shows, people, things, stuff, places, etc

Make a blogified, multimedia scrapbook of yourself – and that is not only your first assignment, it is your intro to introing you to me

THEN send thelabcoatguy@gmail.com an email in which you say HEY, this is me, this is my scene, love it, live it, get it on.

How Will I MARK it?

Do you have pics, vids, musics

Do you at least 500 words of info about yourself?

Do you have actual photos you took or that are of you? (scan, upload, etc)

Do you go into detail and give me a sense of you as a learner as well as a person?

Maybe, you could tell me about your habits, interests, hobbies, etc as well.

You have a mix of material.

You have a good writing style.

You don’t have a ton of errors.

You checked your work with a peer.
