Q1 Applications: Analyze
Analyzing some digital artifacts
Step 1. Check with your teacher about working with a small group of three or four classmates to look at different media applications you might consider using for your Creative Communications assignment.
Step 2. Each member of your group needs to copy and/or download the Analysis of Digital Artifact Chart so that you are able to review the examples. Only one member of the group needs to record the answers and hand the chart into your teacher. Read through the instructions on the document and make sure each member of your team is aware of the work they need to complete.
Step 3. Review each tool and the example provided, filling in number 1., 2., and 3. for each tool.
- Main message.
- Rate how well the digital artifact communicates the idea (1-5 with five for very effective).
- Explain the reason(s) why you gave that rating.
Step 4. After you and you team have discussed all of the tools with the examples, as a team complete number 4. and 5. for each tool:
List three or more types of school assignments the application software would be useful for.
Give an example of when the type of software might be a disadvantage to use for a school assignment.
When your analysis is done make sure all of your names are on the document and check with your teacher about how to turn it in.
