Agenda:

  1. Sonic-Pi seems like a fun program, but you should only be using it if all of your other projects are done.
    1. This includes the Final.
    2. This should also include the extra credit GIMP projects.
    3. Some of you already earned low grades because you decided to play with Sonic-Pi instead of working hard on your storyboards. Don't do this.
  2. Series Video 16
    1. Due Friday.
  3. Video Project and Network News Storyboard.
    1. Everything that was handed in has been graded and put in SchoolMax.
    2. If you aren't happy with your grade, resubmit your project before MIDNIGHT, MAY 18. Anything posted on or after 12:01 AM, 5/19/2017 will not be reevaluated.
    3. This is a short turnover time, but you've already had 3 weeks to work on this. If you have to start over from scratch, it's because you decided to not read the rubric.
  4.  Extra Credit
    1. Don't touch this if there's something else I can grade (including the  Final) that you can still work on. This can help your grade, but not as much as the other classwork & assessment assignments.
    2. I am accepting up to 3 GIMP tutorial review assignments.
      1. ►A link to the tutorial you used. (This is a citation. Leaving it out means I can't grade anything.)
        ►Your cool GIMP creation, exported as a png file.
        ►Your short review of the tutorial.
      2. Due May 19th.
  5. Final
    1. 100 point assessment grade.
      1. All assessments averaged together are 20% of your 4th Quarter grade.
      2. Your critiques have been 20 point assessments.
      3. Your Network News Storyboard or Video project is a 100 point assessment. It's the only other big assessment grade for 4th Quarter.
    2. 8th Graders with jobs from Ms. Hogue: She needs to tell me she's happy with your work by Friday, May 26. Later than that and it won't be shown in the promotion ceremony for the first time since I started having a major. THIS IS YOUR FINAL.
    3. Everyone else:
      1. This final should be completed using Google Slides. The content is more important than the technical issues. If you get stuck, ASK FOR HELP.
      2. The rubric below lists exactly what I’m looking for. For example, the first slide in your presentation NEEDS to include your name. That will be an embarrassing 20 points off if you forget it.
        • 20% 1st slide contains student's name.
        • 20% Slides 2-6 each contain ONE project (You can include up to one Series Video. Normally homework wouldn't count at all for this.) made in class that has earned an A. (In the case of video projects a screen captured image is acceptable, but you should also remember how to embed videos.)
        • 20% Slides 2-6 each contain ONE sentence explaining what the student liked about that project.
        • 20% Slides 2-6 each contain ONE sentence explaining what they would improve if they did the project over.
        • 20% Slide 7 includes whatever parting comments the student has for Mr. Smith. BE HONEST.
