I watched Chris O.’s group and i thought they did a good job giving the listeners good information. Erin was a little to quite but i could still tell what she was saying. i also watched cassidys group. their music was a little to loud and i couldnt really understand what they were saying but other than that both groups did a well job.

I watched Chris O’Sullivan’s group project and I thought that the groups pronounciation was very good. they were precise with the information and clear to viewers as to what they were talking about. They did a really nice job. But, when Erin was speaking the music was a little louder than her voice. Nice job :)

I watched Chris O’Sullivan’s group video. I thought it was very well done and that it included the required information. They included the background of the people and how the ideals of enlightenment inspired them. They provided all of the information that was asked for in this project. The only thing that was not as good was the audio for the speaking. Someone would be really loud, and then someone else would be really soft. But other than that, this group did very well and went above and beyond.

NaCari’s Group: I thought this photostory was really well done. All of you have really good speaking voices and the voice over sounded really natural with the music. I like the song that was playing too, it went really well with what everybody in the group was saying. I also liked that there was a lot of pictures and they moved around. It kept the reader interested! The only thing I can complain about is that when Nacari talks the music seems really loud and I can’t really hear. Other than that there was great support and for every statement you made there was multiple “because”s and “For example”s to back it up. Great job!

Kennedy’s Group: This photostory was great! The only things I can complain about was that I didn’t care for the music selection, and there was only one picture per nationalist. Since the pictures didn’t really move or anything I lost interest, especially during the first slide where I found myself wondering how long it would last!! Besides that small technical glitch I thought the information presented in this photostory was outstanding. Each script sounded like it was thought out and planned, not just copied right from the notes you took. I can tell you guys really did your research on the Enlightenment because you mentioned specifics about the Enlightenment for each nationalist. 

I watched Cassidy’s group video and I thought it was very well done that included specific information. They explained the history of the people and explained how they were inspired by the ideas of enlightenment. They also explained how the individuals created a nation state. They provided all of the information asked from Mr. Patterson asked for in this project. The only thing that was not as good was the speaking. Other than Cassidy, they spoke to fast and that would make it harder to understand what they were talking about.

(Missing work) The Jobs act was being pushed so hard to be passed because like Obama said, People don’t care about politics, they have real life problems.I understood that Long term unemployment is hurting this economy and Tax cuts are a positive for all americans.

I just watched Genesis’s groups’ video and I think overall it is very good. The first picture of Toussaint L’Ouverture looks a little smushed, but it still looks good. Secondly, when Genesis started to talk, she was a little bit rushed. But, the rest of the people in the group sounded very good. I think Carly did a nice job in the photostory. Overall, I think this group did a very good job, but the music could’ve been turned down a little bit.

-Kennedy’s group: Good information and audio. You might want to include more pictures.

-Shayla’s group: Good pictures and sound, but the ending could use some work.

-Good music and picture movement. Some of the pics were a bit blurred.

Good job to all of the group

to Mr. Patterson
The sound on my groups photostory being too loud was my fault. I tried to make the background noise go away by recording onto audasity, then record it from there onto photostory, but it made the sound quality worse. Would it be possible for me to go down 4th period to re-transfer/record it from audasity to photostory?
