Final Digital Story presentation schedule - #7 Exercise posts



Students:

Attached is the final Digital Story presentation schedule. Come on your date (everyone should be in the room at the beginning of class) to present and take notes of the other presentations. If you can’t make the date you agreed to then switch with someone else – the dates are fully booked!  Students scheduled for 9th Dec. will present on 7th Dec. in the second wave..

Your Final Blog Portfolios (#7) are due on the date of your presentation with:
1.    Story script (in Word form)
2.    Storyboard screen shot (from your Movie Maker OR I Movie site)
3.    Your complete Digital Story – uploaded as a video OR link.
No video upload = minus 50% off your digital grade
  
4.    Notes done in class as an audience member – I have the form 

I’ll use the final class period to answer questions, and check scripts and storyboards. See you then.

The five basic interview questions...

All interview questions boil down to just five:
  1. Why are you here?
    What is it about this place that attracted you?
  2. What can you do for us?
    What do you have to contribute to what we do?
  3. What distinguishes you from 19 other people who can do this same job?
    See your homework, above.
  4. Will you fit in?
    Will you get along with, or irritate, all my other employees? And:
  5. Can I afford you?
    Never do salary negotiation until – in the second, or third interview – they have definitely said they want you. Always let the employer name a figure first.
