Evaluation

I think this project went really well, we all worked well, and we discussed the project with each other  and we all gave each other tasks to complete this project, Alaa worked on making the final video with all the voki's, Yasmeen helped me ( maha ) Make all the voki's and the bullying theme song, and the three of us worked to video the voki's from my computer. I think the things that i did well was my use of time and making the voki's and the theme song, i could improve on making things faster because this took me a little time, next time i will try to finish my work at home. We thought that it would take a little time to do this but it took us a lot or time because it seemed simple, but you have to work a lot

Voki Investigation

Plan: for our project we will be doing Voki , this is our plan ;) Four characters are going to be in the bullying scene, one is a teacher, the other is a student and the third one is a bully, the bully is going to beat up the student then the teacher is going to come in the scene and teach the children a lesson . The audience is going to be grade 1.
We are going to be using a online website that allows you to create a avator. After we create it we will put it on animoto so we could play it as a video.

Investigation- Anti bullying campaign

2. 
These websites are well designed because they have pictures of children getting bullied, the people that re going to be viewing these sites are people who get bullied and need help to know what to do so they could prevent bullying happening to them. Children get bullied mostly in school, and the reason why bullies bully other kids is because they want to feel special by making other people feel bad. On the sites there are games for kids to win a bully and can realize how it feels.

Bullying!!



Bullying is When a person gangs up on another person and teases them or hurts them, there are three types of bullying:
 Physical bullying- Hitting, Kicking, or pushing someone.. Or even just threatening to do it.
                               - Stealing, hiding, or ruining someone else's things.
                               - Making someone do things he or she don't want to do.
 Verbal bullying- Name calling
                            - Teasing
                            - Insulting
 Relationship Bullying- Refusing to talk to someone.
                                       - spreading lies or rumors on someone.
                                       

Bullying always happens in schools, rumors, insults and beating people up, Bullying happens when someone hurts or scares another person on purpose and the person being bullied has a hard time defending himself or herself. Usually, bullying happens over and over.

Ending Questions

I think my website works well because It has more than 5 pages and it is really helpful for people to learn about Tsunami's. Yes, it does everything i said it would do because it has instructions and emergency pages, it also has a lot of bibliography which has more information incase people are interested.
I worked well at every stage because i followed the steps and i did everything we were supposed to do, i also followed instructions on our class wiki so i could get a better page. I also discussed a little with my partner to check if all my information is correct.

Website Evaluation

 I created a lt of pages on my site, 6 pages. The first page is home, the second page is tsunami information, the third page is videos/picture, The forth page is My emergency plan, my fifth page is My tsunami game, and my sixth page is my reference page. I changed The pictures page and the videos because i added them together so i could do my Reference page, i also added a new page and made it into my Emergency plan page. Everything is working correctly. =D

Client Meeting

My design and my layout is going to be waves, that is because it is the closest theme to a tsunami. My topic is tsunami's, and i have written all about them on my site, i have also added videos, pictures, and games. I would design my site by adding a theme of "waves" so it can show that the site is all about tsunami's. My site has 5 pages, and i want to use these pages the best i can because they are a few and i want to use them wisely, the pages are: Home, tsunami info, pictures, videos, and games. Iweb is working really good, but there are some things it cant do, it would not allow you to add comment boards, and advertisements, and many more cool stuff. The things that are working are, adding images videos and adding pages are easy and nice. So far i do not have a emergency plan, but i will add a section of how to prevent tsunami's and some links attached to it. In each page i have a website that has to do with the category and some information that i wrote.
Here are some screenshots that i took to show you what I'm working o so far

Investigation

  • Which communication forms are synchronous?
  • Which ones are asynchronous?
  • What type of information would be conveyed by each form?
  • What is needed in hardware and software for each?


- There are two synchronous ways, Using the computer, msn messenger, calling. they are similar because messenger is fast because the person is online ( chatting with you live ) and calling is the same thing!
- sending a message ( from a cell phone ) sending a message from the computer ( message ), the cell phone wouldbe faster because the person might not be using his/her computer but their cell phone is mostly going to be with them.
- if you write all the details and information and send iit to a person by mail, which is a slow way, but it would work if the situation is not very bad.
- For hardware people would need a computer/laptop, for software people would need a cell phone.

Investigation

 
  1. Why is communication so important during an emergency?
  2. What forms of communication have been used during recent disasters e.g Hurricane Katrina, the Tsunami
  3. What essential information needs to be communicated during a disaster or emergency?
  4. What information can be created before the emergency? What information needs to be communicated during the emergency?
  5. What hardware and software is required to be able to communicate online?



- Communication is important during emergencies because you can ask other people for help by sending mail.
- People have been sending mail to other countries around for help and they have informed the newspaper companies about it so everyones knows what is happening and how they can help, they have also called people by using cell phones and radios.
- They should know what is happening and where it's going on, when, and if anyone is hurt, and the fastest way to help these people.
-  I would contact people by saying why i feel something is going to happen, like if there was a tornado coming i would tell people the weather, and i would ask people if they think a tornado is coming so they can help me give reasons and help me contact other people.
- They should have internet connection to talk to people and ask them for help. Some ways they can contact people online is, they can go online on messenger which is the fastest way, they can just send mail, or build a website to inform people.
                                     This is a video people have posted during a Tsunami
