Ballard Week 7

I just finished my final paper. It feels really good to be done with evaluation.

Now I have to complete my presentation. My goal for my presentation is to actually show the difference between the pretest and the final activity This was definitely showcase the progress that the participants made.

I am excited to make my final presentation.

Keeley-Week 7

Last Friday was the opening of the Give the Gift of Art Holiday Exhibit. It was awesome to see my hard work pay off. I spent two full evenings at the gallery the week of the event preparing the gallery for the exhibit. Hanging all the artwork and figuring out where to put each piece was a long process. I also had to prepare all of the food for the event. The night of the opening I headed to the gallery early to set up the food and hang up signs. We had an awesome turn out as many people showed up! We sold a few pieces of art and also a few memberships. All in all it was a great night. Now I need to start preparing for the Holiday Party on December 2.

Week 7- Ponterio

This week I have been finishing up layouts and design for products. This weekend I have a run through of the educational program. My client informed me that the program I am presenting on Nov. 18 will now be open to the public in Hershey and a press release went out to the local newspapers. I arranged to have it filmed and photographed. It may be covered in local news, that has yet to be determined. I am also attempting to prepare for the presentation on Nov. 29 for the Comm/Journ Dept. by preparing my pdfs to be viewable. I will be sitting down with my clients to redesign one of the brochures upon request. The materials should be finished by the time of presenting and the brochure will be sent to the printer next week.

Shimandle Week 7

It is time to get the ball rolling now that I have all the necessary information in order to complete all the aspects that will be included in each training manual.

I will complete the position descriptions and overall 2012-2013 timeline by this weekend. Once I complete both, I am going to send them to the American Cancer Staff partner for feedback. The Staff Partner will be able to help me more clearly define positions an establish the timeline because she has spent a couple years working with various Colleges Against Cancer chapters and understand what works and what does not.

The other thing I would like to complete this week is the purchasing of all the necessary supplies such as binders, dividers, blank CDs, etc. Otherwise, I think that I am finally on track for completing the project on time!

Stein Week 6

I do not really have an update this week. I ran into a problem with one of the students I wanted to interview. She is unavailable so now I only have two students that are including in my project. With the time that is left, I am not sure if there is enough time to interview and shoot another student, so I am hoping I will be okay with just two. I am shooting the students this weekend and the last article will be emailed to The Slate this week.

Galdun Post #6

I had to extend the deadline of my survey a little bit further so I could get some more feedback on the website and PR endeavors. So far, the Facebook page is the most successful out of the three social media options I have explored with The Reflector. The Twitter page is up and running and so is the blog. What is nice about the Twitter page is I have it connected to the Facebook page so everytime someone posts and update on the Facebook page, it is linked to the Twitter. The blog I am not sure how it is going to do, it needs people to be interacting almost on a weekly basis to be successful and once I finish my project, I am not sure if anyone will be using it.

I am extending the deadline of the survey until this Friday so I can gather more responses and spend a majority of this weekend on updating the website.

Sarah Smith - Week 6

This past week I have been working on my proposal. My project is basically finished. I only need to do a few more surveys before I am completely done.

I also plan to meet with Dr. Sipes to discuss publishing my magazine. I am told the only facility to do this is Kinko's in Harrisburg. I'm looking to do some last minute changes before sending it off. I think it will be a great piece in my portfolio.

My proposal is taking a lot longer than I thought it would. I didn't change many things in my project, but adding in what I learned and the different things I will take away from completing my project seems to be adding up. Be sure to start early! I'm thankful that I am.
