Be Conscious Our county has closed schools until the middle of April. My older sons’ are home from college. The government has not shutdown, so that means I’m still going to work. What’s the point? I go to work, mingle
the summary post! So heres my groups final radio show product! This was a really fun project, and i did enjoy, but its timing (& my own personal procrastination and business) was not conducive to me getting it done in a reasonable manner. thats okay tho i’m gonna come back better than ever next week […]
This was an interesting week, I would have never expected the NBA, March Madness, and our campus to shut down entirely. I’ve never seen anything like this. I was meeting with my partner in the Radio Show project, Lewis, when they sent the email on Wednesday afternoon. It didn’t change my plans too much, since […]
Wow, shes finished! What a wild ride! My group’s radio show, The Eighties Through Space-time, focused on how the eighties as a decade are perceived at different points in human history, is finally complete! Overall, i’m really really happy with how it turned out. I have loved our concept from the start, so seeing it […]
As one can tell from other weekly summaries, this week has been quite an adventure. I went from completely dismissing the coronavirus to having school closed for a few weeks. I’ve been in the dark this whole week – classes and all – since I was out with the flu. Of course, challenges this week … Continue reading "Update:「Week 8」"

Featured image is Kaitlin’s poster! Hallo! Welkom! In this blog post, I will detail the process of creating our radio show. Together with Allison, Maeve, and Kaitlin, we created a tour of 80s culture in Australia, Germany, Japan, and South Africa. We each talked about things like fashion, music, technology, and sports. Feel free to listen as you … Continue reading "Around the World: Premiere!"
This week was really light which was nice due to the closing of the school being pretty hectic. Not having extra assignments and small amount of Daily Creates allowed everyone to really focus on their part of the radio show. With the support and help of my group the project wasn’t overwhelming. It’s dope seeingRead more
Here is the final product! What a ride! Here is my other post for the week – Thank you Lewis for hosting, Kyle for editing, and Lilian and Hayden for “calling in” with me! It is so awesome to listen to the final product. There was a lot of coordination that went into this! I hope to take this energy into next week, and future group projects!
Our group project is going well. My peers all have very different and cool approaches to this topic. We have all been communicating with each other this week despite all the uncertainty with the coronavirus. One of our peers volunteered to edit all of the clips together and is even working on the project rightRead more
Wow, what a week. This was my favorite week in DS106 so far. Through a few meetings, both online and in-person, my group was able to coordinate and execute a plan for the radio show. In hindsight, I think we over-prepared, but I suppose that’s not such a bad thing! This project was challenging because we had to meet online, and create a 5 person project without ever being able
*Warning Longer Post, my Apologies!* Welp, this has been a week! 😂 Coming off of Spring Break, a time change, and now classes moving to online. It’s been odd that’s for sure! It’s a little more comforting to know that everyone seems to be in the same boat though. Sterling was able to lock down […]
With the cancellation of classes, moving solely online for the next three weeks, and preparing for isolation things have been a little crazy to say the least. Our class is fortunate to have been working online since the beginning of the semester, so fo...
Considering everything that has happened this week- aka the entire world going into complete shock and buy abnormal amounts of toilet paper, and getting back...
Our group remained in contact over the break. We ironed out the details regading what we wanted our show to sound like. We decided we wanted it to come off as a traditional podcast with a host and guest callers. We all agreed Lewis Geter was the best c...
This week has definitely been one for the books. It has been super crazy with everything happening with the Coronavirus. However, this week was super fun in this class. Being able to put together a radio show and be proud of it has been so much fun. I start this week with doing my 2 …
This was the second week that was dedicated to working on our radio show. This week was really fun and I am so happy with the final product of our radio show. This week my partners and I got together and started to plan out what we would talk about in our radio show and …
So, for our project we decided to read, listen and watch pre- and post-80’s content but that were based in the 80’s. Basically we observed how pre and post 80’s sentiment is different from one another. I read the book ‘Machines Like Me’ by Ian McEwan. The setting is in 1982 but it’s also veryRead More
I didn’t have time to draw a cute donkey unicorn as I was trying to get used to the website and programs we will start using temporarily in my other classes, but I did find this cute little drawing on google images.Read More
In this daily create we were told to draw antique stuff. So I googled a picture online as reference and then started drawing. It was kinda difficult. I did a very rough sketch and then I just added colors and more colors haha and uploaded to twitter. I was actually surprised by the sweet commentsRead More
Many of us in the group had thought that the project was due on the Friday during Spring break, so we were all stressing to quickly finish the project during break, frantically trying to schedule a group call over GroupMe with our cell phones and get everything planned out, but after Lillian and James pointed […]
It’s been a week, what with the coronavirus shutting down in-person classes and figuring out whether or not I would be able to stay on campus to get my internship hours for my major. Thankfully, I am able to stay on campus, but now my internship has been suspended. That said, I’ll be staying on […]
At long last, the radio show has been completed! Over the past few weeks my group and I discussed how we wanted to approach our radio show via our text group chat, and we eventually decided to meet in person to solidify what we wanted to do and do our recordings. On Tuesday, Sterling reserved […]
For starters this week has been stressful with all that is going on. It has been a crazy week! As a group we decided that we wanted to record in person because we thought it would be easier. On Tuesday, we reserved the vocal booth for Thursday (3/12). We did this not know what the …
The first daily create that I did this week was that I had to draw something old, vintage or antique. I am really bad at drawing so was kind of nervous doing this daily create, but I ended up having a lot of fun and really enjoying the whole process. I decided to draw a …
