    Weekly Summary

    by
    This week I completed 10 stars worth of Design Assignments as well as the Super Tattoo assignment. The first assignment I tackled was One Story/Four Icons. I used four icons to represent one of my favorite movies, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. I had a hard time at first deciding what movie would be a good […]

    Branding Gossip Girl

    by
    For this assignment I used Canva.com to create a logo that could be used by New York City’s Upper East Side blogger of Manhattan’s elite. She is an anonymous blogger, but could use this logo as an icon on her blog or social media pages. I chose the pink and curvy font to be more feminine […]

    Character Wordcloud

    by
      For this assignment I created a wordcloud using wordclouds.com .  I used words to describe my character Madame Polygraph who is a crime fighting, mind reading mom. The website was super easy to use and I liked the way you could customize the shape, font and colors of the cloud. I chose more feminine colors […]

    Summary: Week Four

    by
    I enjoyed this week’s daily creates more than last week’s. I enjoyed taking different shadow pictures for the September 19th daily create. We got to the playground at about 6pm and it was the perfect time to get some great shadow pics. @ds106dc My shadow picture for #tdc2080 #ds106 pic.twitter.com/jmu5JhrWdM — Amanda Pennington (@Ms_AmandaP) September […]

    Summary: Week Three

    by
    This week was a crazy week. I looked a daily creates more than three times this week, but kept putting them off. That was a bad idea as I only has three days to complete three daily creates and I forgot one of those days, so I have these two to share with you.   #tdc2075 […]

    The Beast

    by
    The cool, salty air blew against his face as he stepped out the front door onto the porch. “Here we go, day one,” he thought to himself as he paused for a moment before continuing off the porch, down the steps and into the back seat of  his mom’s four door sedan. “Great, first day […]

    Reflecting on Superheroes

    by
    Reading the article “How Ancient Legends Gave Birth to Modern Superheroes,” gave me a deeper insight as to what determines a superhero in the genre. I liked that they use a scale method versus a simple “yes/no” approach. I think heroes can be all types of “people” with different intentions and backgrounds, but that shouldn’t […]

    Summary: Week Two

    by
    This week I have made an effort to complete three Daily Creates. They didn’t require much work, but more thoughtful insight. The first Daily Create I completed was on Monday, September 4th. I gave my idea on what the fourth law of robotics should be. #tdc2065 My response for Today’s #ds106 Daily Create is Robots […]

    One Step at a Time

    by
    My last assignment to be submitted this week is a “Day In the Life of my Feet.” Yes, my feet. I recorded just my feet as I moved about from one activity to another, the hardest part being to remember to record! I tend to have my hands full of stuff as I’m running out […]

    Super106 Thoughts

    by
    According to the Wikipedia link, Merriam Webster defines a superhero as  “a fictional hero having extraordinary or superhuman powers; also: an exceptionally skillful or successful person”. I particularly liked this definition more than the other definition that only includes the cartoon version of superheroes that we all think of. “An exceptionally skillful or successful person …
