    My Unit 3 assignment will be mostly about Asian Countries and my goal will be to get the President Elect attention. My subject will be India and Pakistan.

    I’m still confused about the format I want to do my Multimodal project in. I’ve been leaning towards a podcast. I’ve also been working on the cover art for it! Hopefully, I’ll be able to put it together by the deadline.

    So far good still writing notes and evaluating my draft of ideas. Well, I can’t talk much about my unit 3 assignment since I don’t want to spoil the fun and surprise of my final product.
    Hope you guys enjoy it when the time comes.

    Honestly, I’m having a hard time working on my project because I’ve been studying for other classes. However, I have created the cover page of my brochure and I will be working on it tomorrow. I also have to write the writing component by tomorrow. Personally, I think the writing component would be the most difficult and time consuming part of this project. I’ll try to do my best out of this project.

    I have been working on my presentation slides which are basically regarding the solution to how America can reduce gun violence. My slide consists of pictures, words that most multimodal has. I still have to work on my writing draft and I’m thinking about working on it after I complete my presentation slides.

    I’ve had a rough start to be honest. I couldn’t even turn in Micro-acitivity #18 because I had technical difficulties. I’m leaning towards the idea of a powerpoint presentation because I’m not really creative with the other ideas. I know what I’m going to include though. I’m kind of having a hard time with the word choice and count but I’m still getting the hang of it as I go on. Hopefully, I’ll have it all ready by the deadline!

    My unit 3 project is almost finished. I decided to focus my multimodal on BLM movement and minority communities and how simple things such as education and rights are denied to them.

    I’ve written a song that expresses my topic this week and I’m working on a visual to go with it. Honestly I’m doing a song because I feel like it appeals to my audience more than anything else. Young adults like myself will engage with a song quicker than writing so I’m trying to make it as interesting as I can.

    At first I was really excited to start working on it because it was going to have images involved and craft but somehow I am really stressing it. I feel like that because I want to execute it. I am starting to have second thoughts if I want to really do a brochure. So far I have done the cover and some of the other pages. I am still confused on the writing mode component.

    At the end of week 12, I became completely confident that I would write. Which sections will my work consist of. What sources to use. After that, I thought about how to present it. It seemed to me that such a topic as “Covid -19 epidemic” would be better presented in the form of a presentation. So I started downloading various pictures. Already at the end of the 12th week, all the pictures were downloaded, I began to make the presentation. At the 13th week – today, the presentation is over. Then I downloaded the music so that it would go in the background during the presentation. Already today I can say that it remains only a little to correct what I have completed. Namely, to read it out loud for your friends, so that they would appreciate what they were most interested in? And in general, was my work interesting for them? Or maybe something else can be fixed, so that it becomes even better.

    My Unit 3 multimodal project is based on Climate Change. This is something I feel is extremely important for the near future as if we do not make immediate changes the results will come to bite us back much sooner than expected. At the end of the day, I feel comfortable working with a topic that I chose, as well as comfortable with the deadline. So far there is little to stress about. The draft went well because this is a topic I feel I can just completely

    My work involves a cultural, ideological and political issue thought the world. Child marriage is a problem that still exists, especially in 3rd world countries. It is an issue that is being overlooked by many, yet it endangers the life of the children. There is lack of information in these communities regarding all the consequences child marriages brings. With this work I intent to provide awareness to the parents and children. A poster is a simple way that anyone can read and interpret this will make it easy for those that do not know how read. I also try to persuade parents to give opportunities to the children to finish school.

    The unit 3 multimodal project was such an amazing experience for me. I have never done anything like it so for me to do this was a great experience. At first it was extremely challenging since I was stressing on how to do the project and what to include. I didn’t want to fail at it or do it wrong so I made sure to plan everything done. From what pictures to choose to how to catch my audiences attention.
