Final Exam Preview
1. Explain your experiences with creating videos. Anything counts, facebook live, youtube, vine, tiktok, snapchat, insta, ect.
I have experience with using youtube and creating videos on the platform. I know how to edit and such but it isn't too well since I don't make videos often. I only use it to see where my progress is for doing something that I want to try and improve on.
2. What do you think the biggest differences you might encounter using a DSLR or GoPro compared to your phone.
The biggest different I think I might encounter is having to figure out how it works because I have no clue at all and compared to my phone, I already know how to use it very well. Also the fact that for GoPro and DSLR you can't tell where it is aiming at while on your phone you do because you can control it.
3. Now that you know what your assignment is, please list at least three ideas you have for creating video.
I would most likely create a video about my newest pet in the household to see what he does in his free time or just throughout his day. But also it would be cool to create a video about kids playing on a playground or even just a time-lapse of a long hike or traveling experience throughout the day.
4. I could probably email it to myself or screenshot it so that the photo will become a still image.
5. To explain the music I will be using or playing, explain a photo that is complicated and just a thank you audio of myself at the end.

Personal Essays
1. What was one idea that the writer gave in the Wide Range of Topics section that you can use as you start deciding on a topic?
- You can write about something you care strongly about so the readers can know how you feel and understand where you're coming from
2. What was one idea the writer gave in the Opinions Pieces section that you should remember as you are writing your piece?
- Avoiding abstract expressions as you are writing opinion pieces because you don't want to bore the reader with generalizations. You want to pull them in with details instead.
3. List three suggestions the writer makes in the Personal Essays and Crafts section that you will use as you write.
- Writing essays in a great way to get your opinions off your chest, but avoid philosophical rants which make no connection to your reader’s experience. Again, keep it personal while relating to a wider world
- The hook is the device you use to get your reader’s attention. It’s the doorway through which you welcome and orient them to the piece. Try using:
- A question. (“When was the last time you went without a meal?”)
- A quotation from someone famous or something you’ve read/overhead. (“Be careful” were the last words my father said to me each time I left the house.)
- A strong statement that your essay will either support or dispute. (“If you eat enough cabbage, you’ll never get cancer.”)
- A metaphor. (“The starlings in my back garden are the small boys in the playground, impressing each other with their new-found swear words. The crows all belong to the same biker gang. You need to know their secret sign to join their club.”)
- A description of a person or setting. (“Michael once mowed the lawns around Municipal Hall wearing a frilly apron, high heels and nylons, with a pillow stuffed under his sweater so he looked pregnant. And it wasn’t even Halloween.”)
- Personal essays by definition contain a personal perspective. You should be there. Watch your construction. If every sentence begins “I”, you need to rephrase to provide a better rhythm and pace to your piece.

School Uniforms
1. List three different sources you could interview for this topic
(I am going to go by sources as people to interview because I don't know what the question is asking for specifically)
- I would interview the head of all the teachers. So the principle, assistant principles and the counselors for this topic
- The parents of the students that are going to this school because I am very positive they would be the most concerned about what the students are deciding to wear for/to school.
- The students because they have to be able and be comfortable but also be able to be active and concentrate on themselves rather than what people are wearing and how it is distracting them.
2. Create 20 questions you could ask each source and post them on your blog. It will be the same 20 questions for each, so only have to think of 20 total questions
- How do you feel about the current situation with the school uniforms?
- If you are fine with it, why? If not, what is the reason you are not.
- How would you want to deal with the current situation?
- Do you think the others at the school are fine with the way the student's are dressing?
- Do you feel the other students are fine with being restricted on what to wear at school?
- Should the students be able to wear whatever they want freely?
- If so, don't you think that their would still be some inappropriate pieces of clothing that they shouldn't wear?
- If not, what pieces of clothing do you believe the students shouldn't wear and which ones would be consider fine or good.
- Do you believe the students should have a say in what should be worn and what shouldn't be?
- Why do you think the district is wanting to enforce the school uniforms on students?
- Do you believe it is a fair reason to just do that to the students?
- If a student were not able to wear their uniform because something bad happened to it, should they be allowed to get a free uniform for the time being?
- If so, how come? If not, wouldn't you think the student would end up wearing something that is found rude or not within the uniform rules?
- If you were apart of the district, what would you do to make sure that everyone involved is fine with the way that they are enforcing their rules?
- Do you think think everyone would be fine in the end of all of this?
- Has your view about this situation or topic change after the questions you have been asked so far?
- If they have been changed, can you please explain to me why or how it's been changed? If they have not then can you tell me everything you would do to make sure things are right.
- We are asking everyone involved in this to give us their opinions on what they think about all of this, what do you believe the other students, parents, or the head of the school think about this policy?
- As we are reaching the end of the questions, we would like to ask you, are you glad that we got your input about the school board deciding to create a district wide policy of enforcing school uniforms?
- Finally, are you relieved we have finally reached the end of these questions?
