I’m not as active as I once was on social media, but I do understand the opportunities it can provide if executed properly. Here are some of the pages I viewed: Footprints In The Digital Age, Personal Branding In the Age Of Google & McClurken.
1. Find users/bloggers …
These tools bring back memories from past digital courses like DS106 and Intro to Digital Studies. It was cool getting familiar with them again, but I was a bit disappointed that I could not embed my work on my blog (I even installed the iframe plugin). Other …
Between these three platforms, I am more familiar with WordPress and it’s capabilities. Whether it’s used as a blog or a full blown website, you have the ability to customize to your liking and add various media content with ease. Zotero is new to me, and other than managing online …
I signed up for this class to meet the capstone requirement for my Communication/Digital Studies major. After reading a brief introduction about the course last semester, it became more appealing. To be honest, History was never my favorite subject in grade school, but I look forward to learning more about …
After reading William Gibson’s crazy, futuristic, sci-fi novel, The Peripheral, it reminded me that there is no guarantee what the future holds or the direction it’s headed in. I think it’s highly important that we educate ourselves as much as possible and spread that information along to others who will …
So, I must be honest: I stopped doing blog posts for my individual study. The semester and job hunting just got too busy, but rest assured–I did continue reading great social media material!
I finished my thesis (it’s around 20 pages) and gave a presentation at UMW’s Kemp Symposium, and …
Hello all! So, I’ll be honest: I’ve been on Spring Break (although, it really shouldn’t be called “spring” break, because we got 8 inches of snow), so I made the executive decision to combine two weeks of posts into one so that I could enjoy more of my vacation.
The …
Hi all! Well, I got my snow day–and then some. While the ice melts & re-freezes outside, please enjoy reading my last write-up for WSI’s Digital Minds!
CHAPTER TEN: RESPONSIVE WEB DESIGN BY DOUG SCHUST
Responsive web design sounds super-duper futuristic (I’m thinking, like, a Google search suggestion type of …
Hello all! So, we’re currently under a wind advisory and snow forecast here at school, and I’m kinda super excited. I know parts of the nation are less-than-thrilled about more winter weather, but I JUST WANT ONE SNOW DAY. JUST ONE. SERIOUSLY.
Anyway, as the child-like joy of potential snow …
These past few weeks, I’ve really enjoyed studying Mark Shaefer’s book, Social Media Explained, but as we know, all good things must come to an end…
…Thankfully, I’ve got one good thing to follow another!
For my second independent study text, I’ve spent the last couple of days reading Chapters …
My past employment and volunteer experiences have nurtured many interpersonal skills that are relevant to my ambitions today and offer an excellent foundation on which to build my future hopes and goals for tomorrow.
I have worked hard to develop strong communication skills with excellent attention to detail …
Hello all! Hope you’ve had a great week and are enjoying SuperBowl weekend! (GO PATRIOTS–I mean, what?)
To conclude my study of Mark W. Schaefer’s Social Media Explained, I’ll be re-capping some highlights from his last section of the book: A Social Media Primer.
BLOGS:
I briefly mentioned the …
Hello all! Hope you’re well!
I’ve started my internship at Mary Washington Healthcare, and they are seriously the nicest bunch of people. I couldn’t ask for a better group to learn & work with.
Since I’ve been tasked with handling their social media calendar and helping plan parts of …

I’m back for my final semester and am happy to announce I’ll be keeping this site updated with weekly blog posts documenting my adventures as I traverse through the exciting world of my independent …
Two things have come to my attention: that I have a problem finishing things, and that I don’t take very many pictures of myself. I’m a 22 year-old female, so I of course take more than the average joe, but the vast majority never see the light …
Callie and her family decided that for her 21st birthday, everyone would contribute to a trip for her to go to the CMA Fest in Downtown Nashville Tennessee. Being a small town girl, she loved country music and always dreamed of going to a CMA Fest and it just so …
My final project is going to be on the character Rory Gilmore from Gilmore Girls. It took me a couple days to think of a character because there are an extraordinary amount of choices. But Gilmore Girls was a show that I loved and grew up with; it taught me …

Looking at Yourself (Visual Assignment 3.5 stars)- For this assignment I created the painting Lily made of Ted. I felt this captured the goal of the assignment because it was an artful expression of how Ted felt after getting his heart broken. To make it I uploaded his picture …
Ted had been seeing this girl Jennifer for a couple of weeks now and they had grown quite close. Being the romantic Ted is, he had fell rather quickly for her. He loved her laugh, her wit, and thought she was strikingly beautiful. Like a few times before he believed …
In my final project I used 4 different forms of media combining Audio, Video, Web, and Visual Assignments. Of my 6 assignments, 4 were assignments found in the assignment bank. They include Storytelling Within the Web (3.5 Stars), Wanted Poster (2.5 Stars), Sound Effects Story (3.5 Stars), and Movie Trailer …
Well, what can I say? Yes, the workload seemed overwhelming at times, but I am truly glad I enrolled in this course. The assignments were interesting and challenging, but that was the fun of it (at least with me). The amount of knowledge and new creative techniques I have learned …
In the luscious lands of the Hundred Acre Wood, Winnie the Pooh has spent the past few years enjoying retirement after his many adventures and stay in the limelight. He has devoted his time to inspiring children in the gift of reading and creative writing. However, he has also been …
On a windy Wednesday evening, in another galaxy, on a planet called Triste, a little girl was born. She was the length of a human forearm, very plump, had green eyes and a huge smile. She was a healthy, happy girl named Olive. But there was something about her that …
I’m not sure if we needed to do a weekly summary for these two weeks because we only had one post to do. But, I figured I’d do one anyways, just to be safe. These past two weeks we did our final project, where we select a character and build …
