Emerging Technology Final Project

For my first interview I interviewed my grandma (moms mom).  To see the questions and answers to the interview, click here.

For my second interview I interviewed my grandma (dads mom).  To see the questions and answers to the interview, click here.

I wrote my persuasive letter/e-mail to my Grandma Penny.  To see my persuasive e-mail, click here.

On Family Echo I created a family tree.  To see my family tree, click here.

This is a Piktochart of my dads side of the family, the Elfstrands.  I am a very large percentage Hungarian. My ancestors came to Minnesota from Hungary.  There is a very large amount of people on this side of the family.  I also used the colors red, green, black, and white because they resemble the Hungarian flag colors.


This is a Prezi that shows part of my family from my moms side of the family.  In my Prezi I also used the colors red, green, white, and black again because they are the colors of the Italian flag.  My moms side of the family is mainly Italian.
 


My stop-motion animation film that I created spells out 'Mia Famiglia'.  That is Italian for 'My Family'.  I also colored it with green and red to show the Italian colors.  My stop-motion is saved in my student folder and is named Stop Motion Final Project.

Right now on my project I am working on my Prezi and Infographic.  Over the break I collected interview question answers.  I interviewed both of my grandmas.  According to the checklist below I have completed the questions, persuasive email, and FamilyEcho.  I still need to finish the Prezi, Infographic, Five-Frame Storyboard, and Blog Post.  I just need to do the creative aspects to the project.  I think I am on track to have everything done on time.
