Desktop Publishing includes such a wide variety of content from where to place graphics and choosing fonts, to how much white space to include. I teach a small mini-course in desktop publishing but I would like to be able to be knowledgeable enough to teach students to create and publish a newsletter or school newspaper on a regular basis. My goals in the future is to be able to teach students so they know how to use desktop publishing software effectively and learn the principals of desktop publishing so they can create effect publications. To achieve my goal I need to create a curriculum, find effective books and software and learn as much as possible. I feel up to the challenge. |

newsletter that I could use to inform students and staff
on technology news. I chose our school mascot to
be apart of the masthead along with a title that would
make the reader know immediately what type of newsletter
they received. Implications for future: I can use my
newsletter to teach basics about desktop publishing as
well as show an example for students to use to create
their own. It is also a good example to show staff
members who may be interested in creating a newsletter
for their department. Reviewer's Comments: "Overall your page layout is nice. I didn't think to put the masthead vertically on the side--good idea." Reviewer's Name: Dotty Hare Date Reviewed: January 22, 2003 Title: TATC learner
Caption 7 Artifact #7 Title: Travel Brochure Project Course: 104 Desktop Publishing Date Created: February 5, 2003 Source: Individual Project Media: Microsoft FrontPage, Microsoft
Word, Adobe Acrobat Description: This is a complete lesson
plan to teach how to research and create a brochure
using Microsoft Word and the Internet. The lesson
plan includes objectives, instructions for both student
and teacher, samples, terms, assessments and
modifications. The lesson plan is created so
teachers can download documents in both MS Word and .pdf
form. Rationale: I chose the travel brochure
project because it's a lesson that I teach every year
and it is tried and true. This exercise combines
several skills that students have to draw on. Implications for future: I use this
lesson in my BCIS classes. I use this lesson to
teach how to set up a brochure using MS Word, and
desktop publishing skills, how to save and insert
clipart, and also to help with their research
skills. Reviewer's Comments: Every
thing looks good. Reviewer's Name: Sheryl Lamb Date Reviewed: February 6, 2003 Title: TATC student Home / Goals / Observation / Reflection / Standards I-XI / Matrix / Site Map |
