Design a Mashed Up Children’s Book in the style of this College Humor example. For your final piece, create a JPG image no less than 500 pixels in any dimension. Post to your blog, and submit the URL to this assignment. Be sure to use the DS106 assignment tags so it will show up on their website.
For this assignment, we were to mash up a children’s book cover with another cultural artifact. I chose to use “Curious George” since I remember reading them when I was a kid, and the internet in general. Just like George, all of us are curious to find new information. The internet allows us to do that. I think this image I made represents that concept well.
Make sure to leave a comment of what you think and a link if you did one as well. I’d love to see them.
Assignment:
Visit the Student Blogging Challenge website. Click on the Participants menu to find a list of kid bloggers who are participating in the challenge. There are blogger children from many different countries all around the world. Find 3-5 young bloggers, visit their blogs, and offer them your encouragement. For ideas on what to say, see How to compose a quality comment, courtesy of Linda Yollis’ 3rd grade class in California. When you are finished, write a post on your own blog describing your experience. Who knows? You might give much needed encouragement and support at just the right time. You might even make a new friend!
Reflection:
I visited and commented on 6 year old Em and I was thrilled to see such young children blog about many things such as their likes and dislikes, cultural events, and the current affairs for these young bloggers.These kids have a great opportunity to become the experts of the future internet.
Another blog I visited was 10 year old Siena. I was amazed that Siena was able to recite 120 numbers from Pi, very impressive!
My last blog I visited was 14 year old Michael I was surprised that a male teen would spend some time blogging about what they like, he likes Guitars and video games, I wish I had the time to play those
