Today is Thursday, November 17, 2011. The blog post yesterday laid out the three ways in which we can submit out digital memoirs. They are listed below:

Do not forget also that we are in the last stages of he writing process: EDITTING and PUBLISHING. We are also in the FRAMING phase of the memoir writing process. Below you will see both. Think about your work, the work of others, and what we have done in class so far. Please post a comment once you have a thought about the process, your confusion, conversations we'ce had in class, or anything you know or wonder about our digital memoirs.

Now i Know how to publish my movie.
I like the poll Mr. C, and can't wait to share our Digital Memoirs and begin immersing in Exploration and Colonization.
I now know how to submit my movie and the chart about the writing process really cleared up my understanding of it.
I think that the publishing process that we had to go through was very confusing and would be something to think about.
I like how we actually publish the memoirs instead of just showing them to the class. When you present a memoir, it helps you get your ideas out to other people, and in this class we actually learn how to publish them.
I am really enjoy looking at the memoirs.Everyone put so much time into and I learned a lot of each memoir.Eventhough for my group it took a lot of time to create it was worth it.
I think we are at the publishing step.
That was really helpful, especially for the people who didn't know where to post they're memoirs.
I like how we don't just show the memoirs in class but rather we share them with others by opening the door to the public. Thanks for this good experience and your expertice. Keegan Ehler
I liked adding pictures. I like the other memoirs. I like Mr. C

I like watching the final movies. I like the pictures. Aravind
I'm still confused about the Framing Process (Act 3.) Otherwise I think the digital memoir was a fun project but still helpful in learning and understanding the Holocaust.
I don't know how to publish/save my video. I need help with it
Now I know how to publish my movie THANKS!!
