Introduction
I have picked a topic/issue from class discussions or course readings and will tell a story with spoken and/or written text and multimedia elements.
Here I define my topic and intended audience and tell you why my narrative creation is significant and has educational value.
When I “quote” or paraphrase from my research material I link to my content if from an online source. I use in-text citation if my research material is in print only (Teaff 1974).
Narrative Content/Research
Here are the results of my research and my multimedia elements.
My narrative is told using different types of media (written text does not repeat what is told through multimedia elements).
My narrative contains at least two of the following multimedia elements:
- audio files
- moving or still pictures
- graphics
- interactive data
Multimedia Example: A Timeline from TimelineJS
Multimedia Example: Fake Tweet with PrankMeNot
Conclusion
Here are the “take-aways” for my audience.
I have proof-read my project for spelling and grammar errors!!!
Works Cited
Here I list (3 -5 sources) the book chapters, articles, newspaper stories, etc. I used to support my topic with proper attribution for source material (including images and interviews) in MLA format.
