Next week we will move to discussing color.

Last year, to display how some color palettes are chosen, I sampled a number of my PPT color schemes from nature. I will show you how this works next week.

But for fun, today, I chose to use one of my favorite comic book images. I sampled from the image on the title slide. Hulk’s face and Wolverine’s tongue. Ironically, the colors are very 90s and just a touch hideous.

TODAY

1)Discussion of the readings from the

Snow Day

2)The FINAL project (drum roll, plz to have)

3)DWS Chapters 3 & 4

4)What comes next

5)Homework

Next week

On Tuesday we will go over the results of all

your module 1 work and have a discussion.

We will devote the whole class to asking

questions and giving answers.

On Thursday, we will be discussing color and

doing a color activity. I will give you some

prompts on Tuesday to prep you for that

activity.

On Thursday we will also have a guest

observer, Dr. Danielle Devoss. She’s coming

to observe my teaching and offer feedback.

Things from the 90s that are like this color scheme:

I CAN’T DO IT!

Let’s sample this image

THAT’S BETTER

It won’t win me any awards, but now

there’s at least something a little

easier on the eye happening. Now,

then, back to class.

SNOW READINGS

You all did a fantastic job with the

snow day questions. I’d like to take

some time to go over each of them, so

I’m going to pop over to my Tumblr

and use it to guide us for a bit.

If you’re reading along, you’ll want to

pop over to phill210.tumblr.com.

FINAL PROJECT

I don’t want to stress any of you out

(like I could—you’re an easy going

group), but I want you to start thinking

about your final project.

The logic for this is that we’re about to

start looking at color, and this is a

good time to start thinking about the

site you want to make at the end of

the semester.

FINAL PROJECT

To the website! It’s on the Modules

tab.

DWS CH 3 & 4

Let’s talk about the objections and

persuasion from Chapter 3. What

thoughts do you have? What might we

add to the list?

How is this information valuable?

DWS CH 4

I’d like you to work with your partners

again, in groups of two.

In your groups, I want you to pull out

the one quote/piece of information you

feel is most important in chapter 4 and

explain why.

I also want each group to write a

question for the rest of the class.

HOMEWORK

Remember that Module 1 is due on

Sunday at 1 pm.

For Tuesday, Read for class: Chapter

5 and 6 of DWS (p. 95-133)

Your twitter question is this: how are

you feeling about the final project?
