What I Did and Why I Did It

What I Did

My latest post is the Multimodal Dig. I thought this was a very fun and interesting exercise because it brought more to my attention concerning modes of communication. listed ten items from my book bag and analyzed how each object fit in with the modes. I also created menus on my home page.

Why I Did It

The Multimodal Dig caused me to pay closer attention to detail and design. On the lotion bottle, I noticed that certain fonts were used and words were placed in a strategic order, which represented the spacial mode. Also, I added menus to my home page labeled “Project 1″, “Project 2″, and “Project 3″. I did this so it would be easier for the user to navigate my site and distinguish one part of my blog from another.
