    The robot after the apocalypse in the 80s.

    by
    This is the link to the original assignment. This assignment asked me to create a story after the human apocalypse. I am choosing to act as a robot that the humans created before they all were demolished. I decided to bring the 80s year into this assignment. The apocalypse happened when the humans tried to create a robot that was in charge of atomic warfare bombs. One engineer knew this was a bad idea from the start and tried to put a stop to it. The other engineer who’s idea was this, told him to go to hell. Well I

    The 80s famous Bill.

    by
    This assignment asked for me to create a fiction story. I am choosing to create a story that evolves within the 80s time. During the 80s, there was all types of music being created and published. There was a man named Bill Lyons who was becoming a famous singer for rock music. He was 30 years old, had a steady job, and always wanted to become a famous singer. Well one day he decided that he should focus on becoming the famous singer he had always wanted to be and left his job. He started out playing on the streets,

    Another day on the porch.

    by
    This is the original link to this assignment. I chose to pick my favorite spot when it comes to going outside at my house. This is the view from my screened in porch on the front of my house. I love this view because there is so much to see in just two acres of land. The black-eyed susans just died because summertime is over, but usually there is fresh mulch and beautiful black-eyed susan flowers in the flower bed shown. I also love this location because I can hear all the little birds, squirrels, and other animals talking and

    Facing my fears.

    by
    I created this on Canva for one of my writing assignments. This is the original link to the assignment. This assignment is three stars, which I agree with the rating. I got the picture of the snake on Canva and made the lettering white so you can see it without it blending in with the background. I had fun with this assignment. As you can see, I picked a snake as my fear. I wrote this in the snakes perspective as the assignment asked for. The story tells that the snake sees my camo crocs and thinks of the forest.

    Weekly Summary #2

    by
    Hello people! So this was the first week I had to create and publish actual work for ds106. I used different platforms to create my work such as Canva. This week was a bit stressful because of all the different assignments and places to post my work at. This week taught me how to be organized for the weeks ahead. My first completed assignments this week was two daily creates that I saw on Twitter. These daily creates are so fun because I love to express what I like and filling in the blank of a sentence. It is interesting

    Can you guess my Haiku poem?

    by
    This is the original assignment. I chose this for a fun, new learning activity that does not include our 80s theme from the assignment bank. This writing assignment basically asked me to take my favorite fairytale and create a Haiku that will allow the reader to read it and guess what fairytale it is. This assignment was fun because I have not made a Haiku in a long time. I actually forgot what consisted of creating a Haiku, so I had to look it up and it is made up of three sentences with the first and last line having

    Micheal Jackson, Showtime!

    by
    This is the original assignment. For this project, I chose to dig into design assignments on the ds106 assignment bank page. The directions were to design a poster for an event that is coming up and it could even be made up. Then it asked for me to advertise my poster on my social media accounts. I decided to focus on our 80s theme for this assignment and I decided to create a fiction poster. I love Micheal Jackson so when I saw I had to create a poster for an event, I immediately thought of music, Jackson, and his

    Top Gun.

    by
    This is the original link to the assignment. I chose to take a picture of one of my all time favorite movies Top Gun from 1986. This assignment asked me for my favorite picture and why I love it so much, so I decided to create my favorite picture within seconds. The process of this assignment was I took a picture of the movie and uploaded it to my computer and then wrote up my summary and tagged the appropriate tags so it will show up on the Assignment Bank. I love Tom Cruise and the action within this movie.

    THE 80’s !

    by
    The 80’s were known for their dancing, music taste, which was mostly rock, and their extreme fashion. Hair was a BIG thing, everyone had a head full of hair and usually a foot high. Getting perms and dues were a major to do in the 80’s. There are so many great movies from the 80’s! The Breakfast Club, The Goonies, The Karate Kid, Top Gun, Terminator, and Alien are just a few of the best movies ever made. Some of these movies actually are the start of careers for Tom Cruise and Arnold Schwarzenegger. We know these actors so well
