Well, here I am still trying to mess around with downloading the mind mapping software....and with no luck! I have absolutely no idea what the problem is and I feel kind of left out because everyone is doing all of this cool stuff and I can't even play around on the site. I can see the pictures of the maps, but can't do anything, and I mean anything at all with them. My classmates maps look great. They're colorful and informative (even one little word is major information) and icons and really eye catching design. They have all done a great job. I'm so impressed! I hope I can do something close to that cool. Alex did recommend a few different sites which I am trying, but I at least wanted to get my FATP up here, or what I think is my FATP just in case. I guess half done is better than not done at all!
So, my FATP is
Form: Website hopefully with some animation and other neat tools and applications tools that I learn, and some I already have learned.
Audience: People who share the same goal as myself, as well as those in search of alternative options for animals in need.
Topic: Forever homes for abused, neglected, abandoned, unwanted, and generally any other animal that needs a forever home.
Purpose: To inform people/the public of and promote a forever home for animals as opposed to a temporary shelter or just plain abandonment.
I hope I did this part right. What I did learn in class will be a part of this, obviously, but I am not searching for a career, just following a dream that I've had since I was a kid. Hopefully this helps to move it along.

It is always good to follow your dreams. I am sure that some of what we learn in this course you will be able to apply to your dream and even if you are not able to you expanded your knowledge with multimedia applications and that in itself is an accomplishment. My dad is always saying he can't figure out MS Word, I keep trying to get him to realize essentially he can't hurt anything by just going in and messing with the program. Unfortunately he has his mind so set that he can't he just doesn't. He has a small legal pad by his computer that I have written step by step directions for using various functions of MS Office, as well as attaching pictures or documents to emails.

ReplyDeleteI had meant to tell you that I as well had trouble with the mind map software. What ended up working for me was removing it from my programs and then starting from scratch. If you haven't tried that it might be worth a shot. Good luck.
