My e-portfolio showcases a collection of projects that demonstrate my acquired skills creating technology enhanced content through the use of multimedia design applications. I designed bitmap and vector images using open-source alternatives to commercially available software applications. Through the manipulation of HTML, CSS and JavaScript, I learned the basics of web design and web hosting, including file transfer protocol techniques. I also produced an educational video and an instructional animation by transforming digital images, music audio and narrative elements into dynamic presentations. Screencasting, such as the artifact I developed in this course, is an immensely useful application in my profession. My final project is a culmination of the skills I've developed throughout this course and highlights my accomplishments.

Image Editing

This project involved digital imaging techniques using open-source image editing tools. The first project is a digital book cover created with GIMP bitmap image editor. The second project is a logo I created using the Inkscape vector imaging tool.

Web Design

I redesigned two web-based activities using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The first is a pop-quiz which generates a response based on user feedback. The second is a drag-n-drop assessment that can be used with interactive whiteboards and touch screens.

Video Production

In this project, I produced an educational video about dolphins to complement my book cover design. I used MovieMaker to create the visual slideshow and Audacity to mix voice and music to create the soundtrack. I thoroughly enjoyed creating this project!

Digital Animation

Here, I designed a short digital animation using Adobe Animate to illustrate the function of antibodies in the immune system response. This animation uses vector images and a voice narrative with music audio soundtrack created in Audacity.

Screencasting

I developed a screencast by capturing the action of a computer screen while narrating voice instruction to create an instructional tutorial. This particular application is quite useful in my profession and I expect to be utilizing this tool often.

Final Project

This is my final culminating project which demonstrates the use of various open-source applications utilized throughout this course and combines elements of digital imagery, music audio, voice narrative, animation, video production and a mobile app.
