Hello Week 2!
This week I personalized my site a bit. I created a header that was themed for our class! And I made tabs for ‘assignment bank’, ‘daily create’, and ‘weekly summary’ so that they are easy to reference!

by @chloversgarden September 7, 2018I tried the google draw challenge! I did this with a friend and we both found it very amusing. We were surprised by the picture of a cell phone thatContinue readingGoogle Draw Game -
Daily Creates-Week 2
I made a shadow mountain! I was seeing double! I drew tiny! I drew it big, and then took the paper, ripped it into fourths, and then drew it again! -
Weekly Summary-Week 2-Still Learning
The second week of school can be as variable as the first. Some classes are still getting started while others are starting to have projects and quizzes. This class is again somewhere in the middle. It wasn’t an extremely hard week, but I am still trying to find my feet when it technology, mainly with […] -
My Week In a Nutshell
So, this week was a lot. I wasn’t expecting so much work, but if you do space it out through the week, it doesn’t seem as overwhelming as when you first read the weekly assignments post. The daily creates are kind of fun for me. The only thing about them is that you have to … -
Starting off Strong
I really enjoyed this week in DS106! I enjoyed getting to start using new tools and getting to interact more with my classmates. I began the week by starting my first Daily Creates. I found them fun, and I liked doing a little something creative several days this week. They did not take much time, … -
Weekly Summary: Week 2
I hope everyone’s getting through the second week of this semester after our day off on Monday! Even with that day off, it’s still been a long week, with a lot of work. This week, I’ve enjoyed being able to pick 3 assignments from the assignment bank from 3 different categories. Nothing caused me any … Continue reading Weekly Summary: Week 2 -
Ready to Pounce
I’m a huge fan of Game of Thrones, so I was very excited to see this assignment in the Visual Assignments section. The assignment was to visit this website, and to create a Game of Thrones house and sigil. To do this assignment, you can select ‘Create My House’ to customize your sigil. You can … Continue reading Ready to Pounce -
Daily Creativity: Week Two
Have you been following me on Twitter? Here’s a post summarizing my short bouts of creativity for the week. I’ve enjoyed this a lot, and even more-so, seeing what everyone else comes up with. I’m most proud of my paper shadow ghost. It’s almost Halloween, time for a ghost… #tdc2428 #ds106 pic.twitter.com/1UXPjPQ3fK — Jessica (@JessicaDS106) … Continue reading Daily Creativity: Week Two -
How Google Learned to Play Pictionary
The second assignment I’ve done this week, which can he found here, was to play the following game in which it asks you to draw 6 items and google will attempt to guess what they are. You can see my results below, as I played the game a few more times than was necessary (because … Continue reading How Google Learned to Play Pictionary -
What Is This Giant DOING?!?!?!
Spiders. Spiders people, I’m afraid of spiders. I don’t know where this irrational came from, but this assignment is going to make me tell the story as if it was the victim! I do try and get my fear under control by looking at cute spider memes, but that literally never works. It’s cute for a … -
Post-Apocalyptic Design
I decided to create an outfit for the main character Solara, or Mila Kunis. I decided to make an outfit for her post-apocalyptic movie, The Book Of Eli for this assignment because this used to be my favorite movie, and she’s such a bad ass in it! She is literally who I would want to be … -
Hungry
This is my first assignment that is going to be my Five Frame Story. I thought of this as my story because it describes me so well and how much I love to eat…especially sweets. It came to my head just looking through the pictures on my phone, and I thought WOW I do actually … -
Old Blue Eyes
I was inspired to do this because Emily did one. I had forgotten all about this assignment. The cat lives up the street. I don’t know his name, so I call him Frank, after Sinatra, who was nicknamed “Old Blue … Continue reading → -
Wayfarer
I thought A World Through Nature’s Eyes was such a beautiful assignment post. My ultimate favorite pictures of nature that I have ever taken were clouds when I am on the top of mountains, or when I’m at the beach. I love the fact that they are ever changing and they never stay still for too … -
An Un-Scene Story
by @chloversgarden September 5, 2018In Spirited Away there is a character, named Aogaeru, who is somewhat of an antagonist. His first interaction with the story is when he scares Chihiro causing her to gaspContinue readingAn Un-Scene Story -
The World Through Nature’s Eye
by @chloversgarden September 5, 2018This picture was taken by me when I went with my family to Joshua Tree National Park in California. I had climbed to the top of a mound of rocksContinue readingThe World Through Nature’s Eye -
Random Wikipedia Writing
Here’s the URL for this assignment-http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/random-wikipedia-writing/ and here’s the link for the Wikipedia page-https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Random There is a page on Wikipedia, called Wikipedia:Random, where you can click the link and get brought to a random page on Wikipedia. I thought it would be fun to try to combine this feature with folklore, myth, and legend. So, […] -
When your friend says it will be fun…
by @MaddieM02790291 September 5, 2018We have all been there. We are not interested in doing something, yet our friend somehow convinces us to do it… Sometimes it works out, but also sometimes we end up looking like this… The clip I chose to use was one taken by my former roommate of us sledding together on one trash bag … -
I’m in a Dog Daze
As a proud dog owner, I love showing people pictures of my dog. In this assignment, I took it one step further- I made a video with videos and pictures of my dog! I was very excited when I saw the Pupper Appreciation Assignment! Not surprisingly, I already had a ton of videos of my … -
Sledgehammers at ten paces
Since we’re looking at the idea of myth and legend this time around in ds106, I watched Walter Hill’s 1984 commercial flop Streets of Fire. The subtitle, “A Rock n Roll Fable,” is what caught my attention. It’s your typical … Continue reading → -
A Duck’s Favorite Meal
by @JessicaDS106 September 3, 2018Does anyone else spend too much of their time feeding leftovers to pets? One of the assignments I’ve chosen this week, is a classic: to make a gif of an animal doing something funny. You can see the assignment post here. These days, we can’t let a day pass by without seeing a gif or … Continue reading A Duck’s Favorite Meal -
Dorm Sweet Dorm
To begin using the Assignment Deck, I chose the Create Your Own Room assignment from the Web Assignments category. I was excited to dream up what I would want my dream room to look like and to actualize it (in a sense) through Pinterest. Bringing my vision for my room to life through Pinterest was … -
House Maisano: Pounce Far and Wide
I have to admit that I haven’t seen much of Game of Thrones. I’ve seen the first season, but I haven’t watched any more (yet). However, my brothers love Games of Thrones, and my mom has just gotten into it. I think it surprised all of us when she decided to start watching it, since […] -
My (far-off) Dream Vacation!
This is my Pinterest board for this assignment https://www.pinterest.com/francescacmaisano/my-dream-vacation/ Pinterest is fun! Before this assignment, I didn’t have a Pinterest. Sure, I’d been on it, but I just never created one before. I will say: it’s addicting and so easy to use! I love all of the pictures, and how it links out to […] -
A Hodgepodge Dream
I rarely dream. It happens so infrequently, I actually sometimes wish to have one! Most of my dreams are really short and confuse me. Sometimes the reason why they confuse me is because they are so realistic, I can’t remember if it didn’t actually happen or not. For example, one time I had a dream […] -
Words of week one
A lot of great thoughts came through in the first week’s posts. I will muse on some of them here. “so much weird stuff happens on social media that to me it seems more responsible to stay off of it!” … Continue reading → -

Weekly Summary-Week 1-The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly
The first week of school is always a toss-up. Sometimes, classes take it easy, and the first class or two is just syllabus reading and introductory information. In other classes, teachers jump right in, sometimes even having a quiz the next class! For DS106, I would say that it’s a mix of the two, there […]
