Re-PresentationLJ115

=** 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. I remember hearing running footsteps leave the room and seeing a little kid run out, than I became confused. I didn't notice the path the kid took or what he looked like, I just saw him run out.

B. Using your notes, try to organize the"story" of what happened into a sequence in which the most important information is given first. 1. Kid runs in 2. Kid runs around 3. I look up 4. Kid runs out

//C//. If you were able to have a still camera to record the event, what one picture would you most like to have taken?

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



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 have the same choice of picture? If there are differences, how do you explain these? No, not everyone agreed on the most important part, and we don't all have the same picture. The differences are there because we were all doing different things during the event and all interpreted it differently.

F. Do you think some versions are more accurate than others? Give your reasons. Yes I do think so because some people saw the event much clearer than other's did because some people weren't paying attention.
