IMED Sites

Favorite Sites
Wattpad: http://www.wattpad.com/

  1. the website is simple and it is easy to navigate
  2. the search engine doesn't always find what you are looking for
  Goodreads.com : http://www.goodreads.com/
  1. the site is really cluttered so I would try to make it simpler and try to have the search engine at the top not the middle
  2. easy to use and not confusing

IMED Favorite Thing to Do In Photoshop

The animation was one of my favorite project and I enjoyed watching how my animation turned out.I also liked seeing what other people came up about and seeing the different ideas. In animation, I liked that it was ever-changing and it was fun arranging the shapes.The animation was fun to work on.

IMED Animated or Video

TED talk from Steve Johnson's video was not as interesting to me. On the other hand, the animated video was engaging and I seemed to learn more from the animated video than TED talk. The animated video and the TED talk both had the same information, but the videos had different ways of providing the information. The visual display of where good ideas come from was informative while being interesting. The animated video was creative and displayed the information in a fun, engaging way.  Both of the videos were informative and answered the question of where good ideas came from.
