How did you apply principles of design to create a visual presentation of your learning?
Used Powerpoint design ideas, and kept words on the screen low so others don’t need to read a lot while understanding the presentation
How did you connect with your group using social networking tools? Why that platform?
Used email to connect to my group. Easiest way to communicate because everyone got school emails
How did your group decide on the medium for presentation?
We all agreed Powerpoint would be the fastest to create a presentation
What strategies did you use for effective group-work?
We didn’t meet a lot in the first half of the year but in the second half we started emailing each other and meeting more. Strategy was to email each other when we wanted to meet and revisions to our project

Cited sources using Chicago format
How did you know the sources were “good”? What makes a good source?
