Welcome back to another fine Saturday and another ITA session! Paul having recently gotten his wisdom teeth out, Elizabeth began the day with short clip from the Red Green show (on how to take old appliances, namely stoves and refrigerators, and turn them into office furniture for teenagers. Riveting!) The class got a bit of a laugh to start off the day :)
Following, the class got to listen to Radio Lab, a show similar to this American Life. The show was on Numbers, featuring stories about babies' concept of numbers (according to an awesome French scientist who does experiments by putting sponges with electrodes on babies' heads - crazy!!) as well as how crime can be investigated using the natural patterns of numbers by looking from deviance from those natural laws. Afterwards, the class talked about the use of sound effects and the splicing of the lines - everyone agreed that it was a little hard to follow sometimes, but it kept the audience's attention! (quack, quack, quack!)
After a short break, Elizabeth gathered the class with a learn@uw quiz, including questions on the due date of the BTW :)
And then the work began in earnest! Groups set off to complete and polish up their BTWs. Tenzin, Anny, Diana, and Jose were pretty much finished, but spent some time polishing and getting more sound effects. Keke was gone again today, so Taylor was joined by Michelle and Jose to record the lines for their project and then finish editing. Alli, Nina, and Taylor M also spent a little time completing and polishing. Great work today everyone!
The class ended with blog time and Elizabeth continuing to encourage work on the showcase projects. Hurray hurray! It's the end of the day!
