Transcript: Basic Background for School Presentation Creating Effective Backgrounds Creating Engaging Slides for Students Tools for Designing Backgrounds Understanding the fundamentals of background design, utilizing the right tools, and recognizing common pitfalls can significantly enhance presentation quality. Effective backgrounds not only captivate attention but also support the educational message being conveyed. Popular tools for designing backgrounds include Canva, Adobe Spark, and Microsoft PowerPoint. These platforms offer a variety of templates, color palettes, and customization options that cater to different educational themes and subjects. Typography Choices Design Elements Typography plays a vital role in readability. Choose fonts that are clear and suited for the audience's age. Establish a hierarchy with font sizes to guide viewers through the content effortlessly. Effective design elements are crucial for creating engaging school presentations, specifically in color schemes, images, layouts, and typography. Implementing these elements assists in delivering a clearer message and maintains audience interest. Layout Considerations Color Schemes A clean and organized layout fosters comprehension. Use grids to align text and images systematically. Maintain a consistent format across slides to minimize cognitive load and make navigation intuitive for the audience. Color schemes should be chosen based on psychological effects and the subject matter. Use contrasting colors to highlight key information and create a visually appealing presentation, while ensuring readability by maintaining sufficient contrast between background and text colors. Examples of Good Backgrounds Avoiding Common Mistakes Tips for Customizing Backgrounds Image Selection Select high-quality images that are relevant to the content. Images should enhance understanding and retention, not distract. It’s beneficial to use images that resonate with the audience or invoke emotion related to the subject matter. Common mistakes in background design include excessive clutter and inappropriate colour combinations. Prioritizing simplicity and ensuring text readability against the background should be emphasized to prevent confusion. Customization is key in making a background unique and relevant. Using consistent color schemes, emphasizing readability with contrasting fonts, and integrating thematic images can enhance visual appeal and focus. Good backgrounds feature simple designs that don’t distract from key content. Examples include subtle patterns, gradient colour schemes, and images with soft focus that support the topic without overshadowing the message. Purpose of Backgrounds in Presentations Different Types of Backgrounds Using Backgrounds in Various Subjects Backgrounds set the tone and context for presentations, aiding in focus and understanding. Well-chosen backgrounds enhance the viewer's emotional response and create a cohesive narrative throughout the presentation. Common types of backgrounds include solid color, gradient, texture, and thematic images. Each type serves a specific purpose, offering nostalgia, professionalism, or inspiration depending on the subject matter. Different subjects benefit from tailored backgrounds. For instance, vibrant backgrounds for art classes can inspire creativity, while subdued tones in science presentations can maintain focus on complex diagrams. Subject-specific visual themes enhance relevance and engagement. Importance of Visuals in Education Engaging Students with Visuals Visual elements, particularly backgrounds, facilitate better engagement and retention. Studies show that students retain 65% of information when visually supported compared to 10% through verbal communication alone. Effective visuals can spark interest and promote active learning. Practical Applications Visuals significantly aid learning by making complex information more accessible and memorable. Studies show that students retain 65% of what they see compared to only 10% of what they hear. Analyzing Impact of Background on Learning Visual backgrounds play a vital role in enhancing educational presentations across various subjects, making learning more engaging and effective. Their strategic use can significantly influence student learning outcomes and retention rates. Research indicates that visually appealing backgrounds positively affect student performance. Backgrounds that align with learning objectives reinforce key concepts and enhance cognitive processing, which can lead to improved academic outcomes across diverse learner demographics. Introduction to School Background Future Trends in Educational Presentations Visual elements play a crucial role in education, enhancing comprehension and retention. Backgrounds in school presentations not only provide context but also engage students’ attention effectively. The future of educational presentations focuses on interactive and immersive backgrounds, such as augmented reality

Transcript: Julia Estey End of Life Lived in late sixteenth-early seventeenth century England Poet, writer, literary critic, and philosopher Founder of Romantic movement Member of Lake Poets Coined many familiar words and terms Helped introduce German Idealist philosophy Influence of many writers throughout time, notably Emerson and Shelley Childhood and Youth The Romantic Era and Coleridge's Impact Most Famous Works "Common sense in an uncommon degree is what the world calls wisdom" Coleridge was born October 21st 1772 in a town called Ottery St. Mary in Devon, England. Son of Reverend John Coleridge (a respected vicar of St. Mary's church in their town as well as headmaster of the King's School) and the reverend's second wife Anne Bowden (more than likely daughter of the Mayor of Devon), he was the youngest of thirteen. Never athletic, always reading. His father died at age eight He finished seondrary school at the boarding school of Christ's Hospital (which was dedicated to orphans). He continued studies at Jesus College at Cambridge (where he dropped out) He was plagued with rheumatism and neuralgic disorders Illnesses Resources His addiction to opium was quite intense and only worsened as time went on. In his later days it's said he used as much as two quarts laudanum (an alcoholic solution containing about 10% powdered opium by weight; the equivalent of 1% morphine). It most likely contributed to his quarrells with William Woodsworth (1810) and his divorce with Sarah (1808). Put himself under the care of Dr. Daniel in 1814. He spent many of these years living in London on the verge of suicide. One of the reasons people believe that had he lived in modern times he would have been diagnosed with Bipolar disorder, showing signs of depression, preceeding or following bouts of productivity and appearing socially frequently with his famous charm. Before dropping out, Coleridge adopted what were then radical theological and political ideas, such as that of Robert Southey The two plotted to found the Pantisocracy (this plan was abandoned) He established The Watchman, a short lived journal. After meeting William and Dorothy Wordsworth he had an especially fruitful period writing his three greats (Kubla Kahn, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, and Christabel) as well as his "conversation poems," This Lime-Tree Bower My Prison, Frost at Midnight , and The Nightingale. In 1798 he published a joint volume of poetry, Lyrical Ballads, with Wordsworth; the starting point for English Romanticism. The same year the two spent time in Germany where Coeridge's philosopical mind developed falling in love with critical philosophy, transcendental idealism, and the teachings of Immanuel Kant. Sarah Fricker Success and Adult Life Robert Southey was his friend whom he met during his days at Cambridge. Coleridge and friend, Robert Southey, married sisters, Sarah and Edith Fricker. They separated as he married her only due to social constraints. Coleridge's relationship with Wordsworth is a huge part of his work and success It was also through Wordsworth that he met and fell in love with Sarah Hitchinson (who was the sister of Wordsworth's future wife). Several of his works have connections to her. Kubla Khan The Rime of Ancient Mariner Biographia Literaria Table Talk Aids to Reflection The Watchman Samuel Taylor Caleridge Addiction and Mental Illnesss Rheumatism is defined as any disease marked by inflamation and pain in the joints , muscles, or fibrous tissue. Given his time period we don't have extensive detail on his illness, but we do know it ewas severe along with his nuerological disorders. These afflictions were treated with opium (not inconsistent with the time period) which led to a life long crippling addiction. Coleridge is a major player in the Romantic Era He ushered in the movement with Wordsworth with their Lyrical Ballads for the English. He was invested in Transcendentalism Coined the term "suspension of disbelief" His big three were heavy with romantic trends such as symbolism, strong emotion, and the abstract of fantastic. These were also strong examples of gothic romance. Coledge helped push the craze for gothica. He even influenced Mary Shelley, who refrences The Rime of the Ancient Mariner multiple times in her novel. Drug Use: Influence On Work and Style In 1804 he traveled to Sicily and Malta; the hope was leaving England would improve his health and impair his extreme opium consumption It didn't work. He was a full blown addict at this point and was in the care now of Dr. Daniel by 1814 He lectured in London between 1810 and 1820 (often on Shakespeare) He spent the remainder of his life in Highgate in the physician James Gillman's home (here he completed his work for Biographia Literaria along with a handful of other publications). Coleridge died July 25th, 1834 of heart faluire and an undefined lung disease. Poets.org. Academy of American Poets. Web. 14 Oct. 2015. "Samuel Taylor Coleridge." - Biography and Works.

Basic Background Information

Transcript: I was born on May 30, 1989 to two extraordinarily loving and supportive parents who fall more and more in love with each other as the days turn into years. I was the third of three children. My nuclear family can be considered an upper middle class who values education and has high expectations for children to grow up and have successful careers and families. I grew up in a place and in a family that provides me with a unique perspective on the impact SES and families can have on literacy development. Every child must become a multiliterate contributor to society, but every child will not be inclinded to pursue the same types of literacies. My literacy experiences are marked by social motivations and I have shown a clear preference for literacies that can be demonstrated and developed kinesthetically or with the use of technology. It is never too late to find the joy of reading. Early Family Background - Proverbs 22:6 "Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it." Early Schooling - Exodus 20:12 "Honor your father and your mother." I attended Bethany Lutheran School in Naperville, IL from preschool through eighth grade. My classmates also came from middle class, supportive families. My mom was the school librarian so she taught me a lot about computers and books, but I still did not enjoy reading. I did, however, develop the desire to grow up and become a teacher like her. My parents always bought us educational toys and computer games such as Reader Rabbit, Math Blaster, and Slam Dunk Typing that helped to develop my digital literacy. Bethany offered experiences such as book fairs, Science fairs, research papers, projects, and musicals. There was also a well-balanced curriculum that followed the Whole Language approach to literacy. I was an above average reader, but I found I enjoyed creating and performing better than reading. I did grow fond of certain series such as Junie B. Jones and Harry Potter during these years. I was socially motivated in school and often got in trouble for talking too much. I tried to resist this habit because I am a people-pleaser and always wanted my teachers to be happy and my parents to be proud. I earned good academic scores, but so did everyone else. Where I really stood out was socially and athletically; my basketball team won the LSA State Tournament and went on to Nationals. I attended Hope College in Holland, MI. The spiritual growth that I encountered when I was at Hope has had a profound impact on my literacy development. In college, I found my Classical Literature class boring, but I thoroughly enjoyed my Environmental Studies and my Physiological Psychology classes. My favorite classes were by far my Special Education methods classes even though they seemed to focus more on identifying student needs rather than meeting them. I still appreciated my functional ability to read and write as I needed to in order to excel in my classes. What changed was that I finally began to read for leisure and I started journaling. When I recall these years, I still associate each class with the friends I had in them and the relationships I developed with my professors and in my field experiences. I continued to be socially, athletically, and spiritually motivated as I was on the basketball team, volunteered in the community, and became a Young Life leader at a local high school. I traveled on several mission trips and rarely missed chapel or the Gathering. I continued to work on my communication skills during the aforementioned activities. I also filled my calendar with countless coffee dates where I delved into deep and transforming conversations with friends and acquaintances. By the time I was a senior, I was inducted as a member of Mortar Board and graduated Summa Cum Laude, but I find that I do not value those accomplishments as much as the lives I was able to positively impact through my volunteer activities. I am currently in the process of transitioning from a primary placement in a self-contained classroom to a co-taught classroom. As I continue throughout my graduate studies, I fully intend on continuing to grow and develop as an educator as I have during my Differentiation and Learning Theory class as well as this one. The positive mentoring relationships that I have developed with the students that I teach and the players that I coach have motivated me to continue to develop my abilities to meet the needs of diverse learners by differentiating content, process, or product in response to individual student readiness, interest, and learning profiles. Like myself, some students may not like reading as much as acting, speaking, and writing which is okay. While my undergraduate years were focused on identifying learners' needs, my graduate studies have helped develop methods and strategies to meet the needs of diverse learners. Many of my students need transition services that will help them become positive contributors to

Transcript: ‘Context’ • Definition: the factors shaping the circumstances of a statement and the perception of it, in terms of how much of it can be completely understood. • Countries in Asia, the Middle East and Southern Europe are typically dominated by ‘high context’ culture • Countries in North America, Northern, and Western Europe often are ‘low context’ cultures ‘Low context’ • In ‘low context’ cultures most messages are overt and explicit • Highly mobile environments such as the Canada and the US, where people come and go, need lower ‘context’ culture • Communication in ‘low context’ cultures is direct and clear & Low commitment to relationship, transmitting the task is more important than relationships • ‘Low context’ cultures argumentation and rhetoric are used in advertising, whereas symbolism and indirect expressions are commonly found in advertisements in ‘high context’ cultures High Context ad: Japan: Suntory beer - Comprehend: Corporate meeting/social gathering over beer at night. Uncomprehensible meaning resides in: - Non-verbal language, hand gestures. - Unexplaind interactions/relationships. - Implicit communication. Not translated into low-context cultue. Introduction ”Finally a lite products we, as men, understand. 30 % less calories, 4.1 % alcohol. ” Comprehensible meaning: Dilemma between health and taste. The Carlsberg solution: Same amount of alcohol, less calories. Meaning resides in: - Explicit non-verbal language, outward reaction . - Sound effect. - Overt messages - Summarizing statement. Beyond Culture: High Context Culture Low context examples Conclusion Published in 1976 Contains simple but logical comments on culture and its influence on our behaviour -> “it provides a good understanding of the manner in which culture conditions us to perceive our world, and the people who inhabit it, in certain predetermined ways.” (Pacific Sun) Introduces the concept of “high and low context culture” Low context ad: Denmark: Carlsberg Lite ‘High context’ •Requires people to understand the rules, by using their knowledge of contextual elements •People in ‘high context’ cultures rely more on indirect language, many covert and implicit messages, with use of metaphor and reading between the lines. •Communication tends to be through words, the tone of the voice, body language, timing, facial expressions, eye contact, and the use of silence as pauses • ‘High context’ cultures are more relationship-oriented, community and the traditional way of doing things are very important High context examples Example: Low Context American anthropologist and cross-cultural researcher Influential colleague of the well-known media theorist Marshall McLuhan Gradually developed his concept of “cultural dimensions”, which he described in several books. Thank you for your attention! Concept Differences: • Behaviour (verbal / nonverbal) • Emotional expressions • Relationship-building • Directness/indirectness Example: High context High Context Culture vs. Low Context Culture Konrad Schneider Jakub Drwiega High or Low Context Culture?
