CTE Expo Reflection Journal

  The CTE Expo is where freshman come to visit and decide on which CTE Academy to chose, and sophomores, juniors, seniors present their projects to the freshmen. By doing this the freshmen get an idea of how it'll be once they choose to join that academy and also get an idea of what they can hope to accomplish.

  The CTE Expo is important because not only does it benefit the freshmen but also the people presenting. It can benefit the freshmen because they can decide on which academy to choose and it can benefit the presenters because they can learn social skills and handshakes. Its an experience that is highly educational, it may not be academic but it is definitely educational and important.

  During the CTE Expo 2017 the freshmen got to see what others were doing in visual design and video academies. The thing that went wrong was that the freshmen don't listen, we can improve it by shaking hands or relate to them in some way to make yourself more friendly and inviting, then they might listen. It went right when I did what I am supposed to which is to present to them and shaking hands. It will continue to go well if I treat them with respect and kindness.

  The CTE Expo can help me and my classmates because it helps us learn how to socialize and communicate effectively. Learning to communicate and socialize is very important in my opinion. This can go a long way maybe even far into the future when you have to present something and you remember how to socialize effectively and be more convincing.

Reflection Journal for Logo Project

  In this project I first created logos and then I created business cards with them. The objective of the lab was to use the creativity from our minds and create good looking logos that describe us. To do this lab, I used photoshop to create the logos, by using selection tool and a little help from the grid view and used the brush tool to select and color the logos.

Reflection Journal for Newspaper Article

  I created a newspaper article.I think the objective of the lab was to learn about the design of newspapers and what parts there are in a newspaper. I used Adobe Indesign to create a newspaper, but first I used word to type out the article of the newspaper. After that I created a new document in Indesign with three columns of text space and a title space. Then I pasted the article from word into these three columns. Afterwards I added different parts of the newspaper that was other than the article, which are, for example an image or illustration with a caption and credit to the owner of it. I also added a pull quote from the original article itself.   In order to do this lab I used Microsoft Word and Adobe Indesign. This is relevant to Web Design because it is related to the layout of a newspaper. And because of that it is related to design and writing text in a special manner. I will use these skills in the future when I am going to create websites since I will have to write text
