Second Multimedia Class

Today's multimedia class was less intimidating than last week's. Some students had been having difficulty setting up certain of their accounts, so we went through some of the basics in navigating the various multimedia sites which was very helpful. Dr. Chris appointed a class DJ and even rocked out and danced to Nelly's "Hot In Here," inspired by the outrageous temperature in the computer lab. It was quite a fun sight to see. This is definitely an unconventional college classroom environment.

Today's main focus was looking ahead to the rest of the semester and outlining our projects, exams, field trips, and assignments. We have two events coming up, one on February 16 and another on March 21. Both are events for the Federal Women's Council, of which Dr. Chris is the president. I'm looking forward to juggling a bunch of social media simultaneously and updating live at an event.

Dr. Chris told us about his usual "Judge Dr. Chris" moments in class when he puts certain individual students or group of students on trial for breaking a classroom rule. There is an entire library of videos of these "trials" on YouTube. The one immediately below really stood out to me as humorous and encompassing Dr. Chris' extraordinary personality. The second video is one I took myself in class tonight during Dr. Chris' first Intro to Multimedia Spring 2012 semester judgement session. Have a great laugh and enjoy the videos below.
