For the Produsage Assignment, I had high hopes of completing the full version. But alas, my time management skills got the better of me (largely due to life) and I ended up only completing the concept version. My goal was to create a space and facilitate training on the use of the Web 2.0 tool Canva - a tool that it seems a lot of our classmates previously stated they were unfamiliar with.
Since I didn't get the chance to see that to fruition, I thought I'd post a little snapshot of what could have been.... sigh.
The first tutorial was going to be on how to create a simple infographic using a Canva template. I chose to record a video of myself creating an infographic using a screen recording program so users could follow along in real-time.

I created it and I think I did a great job (not to toot my own horn)... but Kaltura is being mean and Canvas is supporting that decision so I can't download the video. I've been trying for 45 minutes. If I can ever get it to cooperate, I'll come back and upload it.
So for now, just trust I made it, maybe you can access it through the above link but I doubt it since it's on Canvas. Enjoy the final product shown below :)
After that video, I would've created a second showing how to generate GIFs in Canva and other designs. Then assignments would have followed for the students to create their own and post them on the class page and Pinterest. It was a bit ambitious as I would have had to make all of the student examples as well as my own, but I was kind of looking forward to it since Canva is so fun to play with. But alas (guess I'm channeling my inner Capt. Blackbeard today), it wasn't meant to be.
Out of curiosity, do you think this would have been a helpful resource for grad students in the ISLT program?
