Authour: It is a collection of different peoples photograph.

I think that the presentation was effective because it combined two different medias, text and pictures. This gave you a visual picture and a sentence telling you what is going on in the picture.
Though they used two different medias i still felt that they could of done it better. I would have liked to know why the slide shows creator chose these pictures and what happened after or before the picture. The slide show doesn't tell me those things. The emotions this slide show provokes is basically interest. When i see the slide show I want to know more about each image. IT makes me interested in what has happened in the world of sports recently. That also answers number 5, it could be used to get peers intrested in the world of sports. That is the only thing I could think of.

Author: pictures from different sources.

The presentation was effective because it combined images and words to get the point across. It told where it took place, what was happening and who was there. This was effective because i could get a visual picture of what had happened, what was happening and what was about to happen. I would have liked to have known more about how well it was seen in all the pictures and if any islands experienced this eclipse. The images shocked me because everyone seemed to be ready to see this short eclipse and had got there hands on glasses to protect there eyes. I personally would use this slide show in science to explain eclipse and show the picture. It would also teach the students to not look at the sun during an eclipse.

(I am not sure how to screen shot at home because I have a pc so I will put it in next class)

I think this presentation was effective because of its use of sound pictures and quates. The pictures showed the families it was about while the people who were in the pictures where telling there story. This was effective to me because it made me feel sympathetic annd understanding to there situation. Theonly problem I had with the presentation was that I would have liked to have heard the opposing peoples point of veiw on the whole thing to give me an more open minded view of the situation.

The things that made this presentation effective was that they had sounds from what happened that day and pictures that fitted the sound perfectly. They also had text at the bottom to explain what you didn't understand from the other media. I was disapointed at the end becaue it said that they started searching for the killer but never said if they found them or not. The emotions i felt while watching this slideshow was sadness because someone died but I also felt angry because of all the fighting going on in this world.
