What? Together Sarah and I created an awesome infographic that is based the tuition fees of undergraduate studies across Canada, a subject that is interesting to use both. We were given the opportunity to explore many different sites that allowed us to fiddle around with many different forms of media to create a piece that was meaningful to us. It is an awesome tool that is very beneficial to be used within the classroom.
We played around with many different subjects. One being, why chocolate ice cream is better than vanilla.. Sarah obviously is lacking great taste because vanilla is 100% BETTER than chocolate—YUCK! Another option we debated on was why Game of Thrones is the best show ever…again, another downfall to Sarah, the BEST SHOW EVER is obviously Friends. Coffees we have had this week was annoootthhherrr option. But I’m sure you've guessed it. Sarah disagrees with tea being the best beverage to walk this earth!
Believe it or not… we came to an agreement on tuition fees because I love geography and Sarah loves any opportunity to protest for social justice.
So What? Having this opportunity to explore awesome sites such as BigHugeLabs and Fake-azine to make a magazine cover was a lot of fu because I was able to make a cover that is unique and creative. This is a useful tool that teachers can implement into their classrooms to encourage their students to think critically about what words they have chosen to include on their magazine cover. Within media, these covers communicate messages to the intended audience using symbols and informational texts. Students can gain an understanding as to the terms and techniques that are used to construct successful advertisements that are essential media skills for students to understand.
Now What? Even though it took Sarah and I a few debates to agree on a topic, this one worked out to be the best because all of our Media Literacy peers can relate to the information presented. All of our peers pay these tuition fees. This infographic was easy to make, is appealing and it’s great because you can interact with it and compare the results.
