Re-presentation+K.A.

Assignment:
 * 1) Create a wiki page called Re-presentation initials. Copy the information below and paste it on the page that you create.
 * 2) I will show the class a brief video of an event or an interview. Imagine you are a reporter who has just witnessed this event.

After viewing the event. complete the following A. Take five minutes to write down quickly in note form everything that you can remember about the event.
 * We were just typing in class and all of a suddenly Tyler runs into the classroom and hides behind the desk. Mr. Delaporta runs in, bumps into Mrs. Carrier and says, "where is he?!" Tyler pops up and says, "Catch me you will not!" He runs out of the classroom and Mr. Delaporta runs out after him. **

B. Using your notes, try to organize the"story" of what happened into a sequence in which the most important information is given first.
 * The most important part was when Mr. Delaporta yelled, "where is he?" It shows that he is looking for Tyler and Tyler is most likely in trouble. **

C. If you were able to have a still camera to record the event, what one picture would you most like to have taken?
 * I would have taken a picture when Tyler said, "Catch me you will not!" **

D. Using the materials you have got, write a story for your local newspaper that tells what happened. You should include a sketch of your imaginary picture with a caption. (Use Tux Paint t0 draw the sketch. Go to File on the wiki page and upload the file to your page.)

=** Computer Class Catastrophe **=
 * Today in Computer class, we were calmly doing a class discussion. All of a sudden, Tyler (a student) runs into the classroom out of nowhere! He hides behind a desk. People start murmuring, but some students haven't even noticed him yet. The vice principle, Mr. Delaporta, runs into the classroom and bumps into Mrs. Carrier. With a frantic look, he says, "Where is he?!" The students look over at the desk. Tyler pops up from behind the desk and yells, "Catch me you will not!!!" He sprints out of the room and Mr. Delaporta dashes after him. Was tyler in trouble? Why was he running from the vice principle? Was it all a joke? All of the information remains a mystery. By the look on everyone's face, it is quite clear how shocked and confused we were. A few people were amused by the random display and started laughing. **



E. Compare your story with those produced by the rest of the class. (Read at least 10 stories on the wiki.) Has everyone agreed what is the most important part of the event? Do you all hve the same choice of picture? If there are differences, how do you explain these?


 * Everyone pretty much agreed on the same important part. Most people did not realize that Tyler ran into the classroom though. They mostly focused on Mr. Delaporta. Some people didn't even hear him say "Catch me you will not". Most people said that the most important part is when Mr. Delaporta asked where Tyler was. I agree with that because it adds the mystery and sets the tone for the act. **

F. Do you think some versions are more accurate than others? Give your reasons.
 * I would have to say that my story is more accurate because I was in the front of the whole scene. I saw Tyler run in while some didn't. I saw him bump into Mrs. Carrier. Some people are in the back of the class and would not be able to see well. Some people also could have thought they saw something else or could have been daydreaming and not paying attention. Some people said the time was 8:55 and some put 9:15! It can be confusing. **
