New Literacies Project

For my new literacies project, Amanada Z and I are going to be doing a powerpoint presentation followed by a wordle on Cultural Literacy. The culture that we are going to be focusing on is the Jewish Culture. Amanda was born and raised Jewish, and even though I was born and rasied Catholic, my father is Jewish, so this culture has been present in my up bringing. I am really excited to work on and complete this project because it will be allowing me to use different types of technology that I have never used before, and I will be learning a lot about my own culture.
Wordle is a program that I have never used before, but I have seen it used in one of my classes and I thought it was an amazing program. It allows the user to see which words are used to the most, and can give other readers of the wordle a general idea of what is being talked about the most in a presentation.
