What it means to write for a public audience is to narrow down what type of audience that you want to write to and narrow down your topic to that specific group. In our photo collaboration project, we did a public audience, but we also did narrow down the topic to do a specific audience as well. What it means to do web content is that it is something with pictures or something visual that you put on websites. For example, when the special guest speaker he showed us websites we could use for out photo caption project. When we did our photo caption project, we used visuals to describe what we were doing with our topics.
When UCBA has the Activist, it means that people can publish stuff on there that they find interesting or other people should know or give people information about something people didn’t know about before. When I published my profile on the Activist, I thought people should know what happens inside an orphanage daily and how orphanages saved some of those workers lives. When my group published our photo caption project, we thought people should know on what causes anxiety in kids and adults. A student voice is when a student reads an then you asked them how they liked it you just got to listen to them. When we were writing for our Journal entry 2 you asked us a similar question what is our relationship with reading and I answered the same way you just have to listen to the tone of my voice if I liked the reading.
How discourse community relate to the meaning of making development is that we all have our own opinion on things relating to discourse community. When we got into groups on 2/26/20 you had us pick which discourse element to argue and we choose the first one purpose because everyone has a different purpose for their pieces, and they are not all the same. What discourse community means is that a group that shares a common interest with one another. How this relates to the class is that some of us shared some common interests but not all of it.
How our profile plays in all of this is that when we are doing our profiles discourse community came into play and the visuals came into play to. How discourse community came into play because some of us showed common interest with the profile, but we all did something different. How the visuals came into play is that you had us find some pictures for our profiles. How our profiles relate to genre is we all picked a specific thing to talk about and create an essay on that topic. How I used the Activist to illustrate my profile is I looked on what stories we already wrote and what people liked to read about and I thought that people would like to read on how one orphanage changed two peoples lives and the same time other kids lives.
How we related genre to our collaboration project is that we picked to talk about Music and genre and how music changed over the years along with the genre people categorize those types of music in. How this developed a specific genre is that when we were doing the collaboration project, we were thinking broadly about the genre but really, we needed to think about a specific type of genre. The values we used for the project overall is precision, accuracy, positivity, and purpose. The one we used most is the purpose because we wanted to create a purpose for this collaborative presentation, so we all don’t go off on a tangent on the subject we wanted to focus on the music progressed over the years. Another one we used the most is accuracy because we want our collaboration presentation to have all the right stuff in it to get a good grade.
The values I think I have achieved in this class so far is positivity, purpose, Achievement, and harmony. I think I have achieved positivity so far because I always thought positive throughout this entire course so far even though at times I wanted to quit especially with my profile. Purpose is also my value because I came into this class with a purpose of becoming a better writer and a better author with my profile and all the journal entries we do. What I have achieved is publishing my profile for this class because I think everyone should know about orphanages. I also achieved harmony because I stayed calm in everything even though I felt stressed with some of my writing.
What it means to me to publish my work is that it makes me feel accomplished that I did something right. What the publication process made me do is add tags and upload my pictures I used on my word press. My thoughts on this class so far is that I think I am doing very well.

Here is what I am going to say with my slide which is the Rock music slide.
- I would share about the definition of what people think when they here rock music
- I would have asked what they think when they hear the word rock music
- I would go into how the genre of rock music has changed over the years.
- I would show one of the music videos and have them tell me what they think.
