Electronic
As our world slowly transitions and grows through technological innovation, electronic media has become more and more prevalent in our society. It begins with the Internet, which has become an infinitely large library of information and is an indispensible tool for many of the academic endeavors that I wish to pursue. Along with the internet, there are various tools available such as powerpoint and prezi - which I used in building this portfolio. I made extensive use of electronic components in my portfolion. These assignments include the Annotated Bibliography, the Twilight Mania presentation, the Final Presentation, Final project artifact and of course, this website. Furthermore, I used the Georgia Tech e-book and other Internet articles to enhance my learning in the classroom.

Annotated Bibliography
In this assignment, it was important for me to consult the Internet for information on some of the sources I found. Besides the information, I also needed an appropriately constructed, MLA-formatted bibliography. I used Google Scholar to find the essential information and it also provided me with the appropriately constructed bibliography.This was enlightening as I have become better at finding specific information, thereby increasing my efficiency of work

Final Project Presentation and Video Montage Artifact
My Final Project contained two elements which utlized electronic mode of communication.(1) The presentation which used Prezi and (2) the artifact in form of a video. The Prezi presentation for the final project on the evolution of courtship required multiple drafts. I used the Internet for a lot of my research in this presentation and it was easy to relay information from the there to the Prezi in an informative and in-depth manner. As I edited my drafts, I made sure to make the presentation more readable and more entertaining. One of the downsides to Prezi is that occasionally, a user’s Prezi may not load, or they may have forgotten their Username and Password. This happened to one of my peers during their presentation and it was definitely a stressful time.
Final Project Artifact was the assignment in which I really have to use my creativity at its best. I used a video editing software (Apple FinalCut Pro) to edit and mash up romantic courtship scenes from various movies. It was important for me to add text and introductory material, as well as transitions in my combination of the movie clips. More in-depth reflection on the artifact can be found here.
