EDLD 5366 Digital Graphics and Web Design

Week One-
Digitized Ancient Manuscripts were very neat to see online.  I loved the color of each title which helped separate each category.  I also noticed the ornate pictures of single letters, ( the letter was the opening letter to the paragraph). 
Contrast was used with the design of the title and subtitle.   Contrast is used with the beginning of each paragraph and the ornate picture of the first letter.
Repetition is used by the same font, size, and shape of each paragraph.
Alignment is used as the author of the manuscript made precise placement each key point.
Proximity was used to separate elements.
I truly believe that the C.R.A.P. model was created during these manuscripts were created.

EDLD 5363 --Web conferences

Most of the time I could not get into a conference.  The other part of time I couldn't keep up with when they were.  So I listened and read web conferences.  I feel these are soo, soo important as it keeps you connected with the class, assignments, as well as interaction with the professor.  If I had a question about anything, I can ask and these are the only times unless you email that you can ask someone.  I have made connections with other classmates outside of web conferences and that has helped immensely. 
The greatest importance is the communication.  Web conferences are vital to the success of students in any course.
