There are two areas of interaction ; Approaches to Learning and Human Ingenuity . Approaches to learning relates to our research because this is what actually leads you to get what I am doing an invitation for and just life (in general) . It also relates to our research because we need to know the information, we need to reflect and we need to connect ideas for our invitations. Human Ingenuity relates to our research because at the end of everything the number one thing that we are gonna need is the internet and desktop publishing. We need to do our invitation designs and everything else that is important on a computer.

Entry #7

The design task that we have been asked to solve is very simple. Everyone has been asked to pair off with someone and the groups are given a special event that is most likely going to take place in TMA or has something to do with TMA. Then the groups have to create their own invitations for the events. They have to have meetings with the person or people in charge of the event, we have to make business cards and we have to e-mail everything we do to Mr Wang or Ms Tomlin .

This image is appropriate because it is just pictures of trophies. It should excite the students that all their good work is going to be recognized . & that they are going to get a big trophy that you can always look back at and truly be proud of yourself.



This picture is appropriate because it is simple and just telling the students that they simply this year and that they should be proud of themselves. This picture does not over due that you did good or anything its an easy picture; not too bright, not ugly, just right .



This picture is appropriate because it is the school logo. The students that go to Thurgood Marshall Academy should be proud to come to this high school. They should be proud to wear the school logo on their sweaters & vests everyday.



This picture is appropriate for my invitation because the students that are getting these awards should be proud of themselves. They should know that people really are proud of them and what they were capable of doing that year. This picture is also appropriate because it is colorful and it will attract peoples attencion because of the colors .

This image is appropriate for the invitation that my group has been assigned to do for many reasons. To start off the image is representing trophies. The students that have improved and the students that have been doing well throughout the entire year will be getting these trophies at the end of the year for recognition. The students should at least be able to see an example or a small picture of what they are going to be earning.
