First Quarter Reflection; Fall, 2010

The first quarter was full of new & exciting but also difficult things. I made a lot of new friends, learned how to write using the 6 traits of writing and to show not tell what I am trying to say as i write. I learned how to use creativity, time management, and become more computer literate. I realized now how much harder it is to get work done on time, especially when doing a video or project, etc. Working together with other students has not been a problem for me. We all get along just well. It's best that when accomplishing work, I do it all at one time. It makes it easier to get things done more efficiently and help to not procrastinate. There is actually nothing I would really change about Language-Arts. Although the only difficulties I did have during the first quarter, here in MeneMAC, was using photoshop because it got confusing for me with all the layers and different tools. I had a hard time with first project, but now, I am able to manage. Also editing when doing videos, they frustrate you whenever it gets to the parts where your trying to match different your audio & video together, & when your trying to cut out pieces & you get confused on which video belongs. I guess practice will make perfect later on as I continue to make other videos. My overall MeneMAC experience has been all that I ever hoped of and more. I couldn't of imagined a better way to experience it. My goals and hopes for this quarter is to get better at making good movies, getting more good at photoshop, and also working time management.
