Deadly Text
Texting has taken over the social world. About 5 years ago mainly teens were texting, but now everyone is texting. Let’s be honest, when we are driving down the highway we see people texting and driving, some of us do it ourselves. In high school, I signed a pledge to not text and drive. More ... -
My Opinion on “This American Life”
I like how Starlee Kine started off interacting with Glass and not just talking about her own views. Glass asked her a question and  she instantly asked him a question, instead of talking solely about the show without his input. In Part 4 of Glass’ serious, he talked about how you have to interact with ... -
BUMP the Bumper louder
This assignment had to be one of the best assignments ever. I listen to the radio a lot and sometimes I like the bumpers more than anything else. Most bumpers are very catchy, and they don’t have many words in them, which makes it easier to remember. Although, this was one of the best ones, ... -

Chip’anna
I chose to do a Rihanna Chipmunk version. Yes, I LOVE Rihanna to bits, and I know all of her songs One of her songs I love the most is “Only Girl (In the World).” This song is very upbeat and a lot of people know it very well. Along with that, I knew that ... -
Letter Home; week 4
Hey Mommie, Another week of camp gone by. Just writing to give you another update on how things are. This week was a very easy week for the most part. We had to do a safari of our every day lives. Where we took pictures of random things that we saw and them used to ... -
My life; My Safari
Color Color Creates Mood. Draws Attention To Key Elements I decided to use a stop sign. First off, the color of the stop sign is bright red. I assume that the reason why a stop sign is read is to capture the drivers attention. As the quote above said, “draws attention to key elements.” The ... -
Breaking Down the Creative Commons
What Is the Creative Commons a non profit organization that works to increase the amount of creativity allows the body of the work to be available to the public for free and legal sharing, use, and remixing Useful Resources Sharing photos The ability to get photos off of the web and share them with people ... -
Flock Together & Share
“Sharing is Caring,” words my mother instilled in me a long time ago. I found this picture on the Creative Commons website and it looked as if all the origami birds are looking over and reviewing something. That is where I got the idea of  ”Flocking Together.. Sharing Ideas.” I also like how each ... -
Catch Me in the Beach
I absolutely love where I am from. Colonial Beach, Va. It is a very small beach, but it gets a lot of attention during the holidays and the summer. When I saw this assignment I got a tad bit excited. Mainly because not many people know where Colonial Beach, Virginia is. This again was an ... -
Music is Life
My life revolves around music. Music is one of my main types of communication. Words that I couldn’t say, I would find a song that stated how I felt and played it for the person, or ask the person to listen to it. I was always on the top of my music but listening to ... -
Together We Can
This picture of four people holding hands is a great design for DS106. Everyone pretty much knows that this is an online class so we don’t physically see each other everyday. But with that, it is amazing to me how we can all come together as one and get things done. For example, the collage ... -
Hungry?
I took this picture  in church a couple of week ago, when my cousin, Mariah, was eating a pop tart and not sharing. Every time someone someone asked her for a piece she would give them this look. When I seen the option of making a captioned picture I knew this would be the one. I again ... -

Letter Home ; Week 3
Whoop Whoop Mommie, Made it through another week of camp. I know your missing me extremely bad. This week at camp, we learned a lot about picture, and how to make pictures better. You know how much I love to take pictures so here’s all the picture that I took this week.. (don’t worry, you’ll ... -
Making Pictures Better
Week 3 has went extremely well. Learned a lot of new things about becoming a better photographer and how to make simple changes to make a better picture. Let me share with you some of things I learned. One thing I learned was you can make a picture better by getting into silly positions. That ... -
Optical [head]llusion
This is an old picture I had that was great for the optical illusion visual assignment. My friend and I were finding ways to make optical illusions one night because we were just bored and thought we’d make funny pictures. I decided that I wanted to cut her head off with some scissors & it ... -
[Wear] is the Error = )
I LOVEÂ mysteries, so I had to do the “where is the error” photo. I wanted to make it easy, just fun at the same time. I know everyone loves shoes, so I found 2 pair of my bright colored shoes and some sandals and did the photo. This probably was the more fun one to ... -
Love.Love.Love.
Love. Ha, isn’t it wonderful. This assignment was inspired by my love for my male friend that means the world to me. When I saw they had a visual assignment that allowed me to show my passionate side I had to do it. The 3 pictures above are just a few pictures of us being ... -
Give me a “D” a “R” an “A” a “W” an “I” and a “T” what does that spell >DRAW IT
This one was probably the easiest. I chose to use the picture of my cheerleading squad because people always drew pictures of us. Sadly, I do not have any of those photos, so creating a drawing from a picture was the next best thing. This is a photo from my senior year of cheer and ... -
Pop Art’N Myself
Growing up, I always wanted to be a pop star. When I seen this particular visual assignment, I knew it was a my chance to pretend I was a pop star. I ALWAYS wanted to be this famous singer and also a ob-gyn on the side (yeah, what a dream). This was very exciting for me ... -
Bryan’s Digital Storytelling
Bryan talked about numerous ways stories are created and how other perceive the storytelling mode. The one I wanted to elaborate on is “Character Blogging.” Character blogging is when the blogger is a character and their personalities are shown overtime.  The story I read in detail the “The Tweeted Titanic.”  ”The Tweeted Titanic is a series of ... -
Letter Home ; Week 2
Hey Mommie, Whew, made it through another week of camp. This week I become more accustomed to the routine of camp. We had to do 3 daily creates. The first one I did was recording a sound that I basically hated, and I did styrofoam rubbing together. You can hear the sound here : http://soundcloud.com/kavon-lechae/sounds-from-tuesday-afternoon Then for ... -
Camper of the Week
I guess I started off camp well -
The Shaping of Stories
I agree with all the story shapings that Vonnegut explained in his video. 1. A person gets into trouble, but overcomes it. 2. the average person gets something great, and it goes totally wrong. Or 3. A lower person starts off badly, good things happen, and they over come everything and remain triumphant. I chose to talk about ... -
Letter Home
Hey Mom, This week at camp has been very chaotic and fun at the same time. I was very confused with a lot of things that first, but now things are coming together. I had to make a video on a family legend, and I chose to do my video on grandma. I expressed how ...
