How about a quick list this time:
- Return 2 blog posts with comments
- Hand out my quick AP style tips for future posting
- Give you a rubric for any story or post that we do
- Finish posting the HTML/CSS page
- Do the PHP page and post that
- Optimize and post the fair photo
- Presentation from group 2 on apps and tools for journalists (Val Hoeppner and U. Texas); you will blog on their presentation (and any other apps you think are interesting) for next week; as before the assignment is
- is at least 400 words (this is down from 500)
- includes at least one Tag and one Category for each
- has a compelling title or headline, catchy lede, and conclusion (see the three blogging links from last week from Websitebuilder, SmartBlogger and copyblogger; you should return to these throughout the semester) a photo or graphic as you see fit, and at least three links; here’s another link on good blog posts from Melyssa Griffin
- Break
- Pyramid of Competence slides will be next week; you will post on them for Feb. 28
- Start the audio assignment; there are handouts on Audacity, and on interviewing (from Brian Storm)
- If there’s time, we cam experiment a bit with Audacity and external mics
For recording your phone’s Voice memo is OK, but I prefer an app such as Voice Record that gives you more control over levels, output formats, etc.
