Creative Critical Reflections Question #4

 "How did you integrate technologies – software, hardware and online – in this project?"
The technology was used in almost every part of the creation of my magazine and blog posts.
I used the standard computer that they supply us with at school for the majority, and at home I used my HP laptop. This is where I created the magazine and edited the blog posts from. Both computers were very high quality and made it easy to edit my magazine and blog. Blogger.com and Canva.com were the websites used specifically for the blog and magazine creation. They were both free to use and were easily accessible from the computers I was using.

I used my iphoneX to take the pictures. I made sure that I took several photos at every position to ensure that the quality of the picture was high and looked professional. It is also how I organized the photo shoot and interviewing arrangements with Carson and his family, which is the person I write about in my article.
I did not have any graphic design software for my photos, but I used Canva to help structure my magazine. However, I did not use a sample template on Canva. Instead, I created the magazine structure that I envisioned through trial and error.

The picture on the table of contents was too generic and did not have any action, and I was planning to meet with Carson (the person in all of the pictures) to have another shoot in which I could obtain more photos of him playing. I was hoping to ask him a couple more questions and put more quotes from him into the article. The question I planned to ask were "If golf does not work out, what do you plan to do", "Where do you see yourself in 10 years?" and "What professional golfer/ person do you look up to?". These would have created a friendly interaction that the audience could relate ...

Project 4

Project 2 revision On October 25, 1938, the United States Congress passed the Fair Labor Standards Act, which established the first mandated minimum wage. The first wage was set at $0.25 per hour, which equates to $4.55 in 2020 with inflation (2009). In 2020, the federal minimum wage is $7.25 per hour. While states have manipulated this wage to fit cost of living, $7.25 is the federal law (2020).             Since 1938 the minimum wage has been increasing not only with inflation but to accommodate peoples wants for higher pay for work. In 2020, the mainstreamed new standard for minimum wage, which was set by the political left, is $15 per hour. The left proclaims that this is a “living wage” and allows people to not have to work as much to provide for themselves and their family. The political right is split between abolishing the minimum wage or keeping it the same. They claim that an increase in wages would consequently cause...
