VISUALIZATION PROJECT

ANNOTATED IMAGE     For this project, I decided to do an annotated image. I felt that this was the most appropriate because the students will be reading a graphic novel, and they probably won’t know certain graphic novel terms that are important or what to look for when they’re annotating. I chose this image specifically because it also has some things that can be annotated based on the lens the students would be using for this unit (which is gender/gender norms ), and it has a few good examples of graphic novel vocabulary words I would want students to know. To differentiate the two different reasons for annotating, I have added two different types of clickable points. The blue circles are showing what to look for/how to annotate for gender norms within the story. The red circles show different graphic novel terms and what they mean.  This process definitely deepened my understanding of graphic novel terminology and how authors/illustrators use all of the space on the pa...

zine!

There was also a lot of color symbolism throughout the book, so I figured I could play into that a little bit. I’ve never made a zine that was picture based before, so it was pretty challenging because I am not gifted artistically. This was a really fun project, though, and I’m glad I got to try something different. I enjoyed mentally channeling my middle school self to make this art project!!

 Writing coaching has been somewhat difficult for me. It's hard to give feedback to students whom I have never met, and haven't told me much about themselves through email. I think that it's important to know who you are coaching so that you understand what they might need more/less help with. I haven't had a ton of success with students replying to me or sending me their work. Although this is a little frustrating because it will help me once I become a teacher, I completely understand. It's an extra task for these students, and I remember what it was like being in high school. I probably wouldn't have sent something I wrote to a college student either. I think it's important to be understanding, above all else. I think that, going back to an older reading, they need to understand that it's perfectly okay to not have something written perfectly at first. Bad writing only paves the way for improvement! I think that the stress of writing "badly"...
