Greetings, gentlemen, for the last time:
Since our purpose is to get absolutely as much done of your finals BEFORE the actual day of the final exam, I thought it best to lead off with what I still lack from each of you. For each item below, if you have the files, please send them ASAP:
sfx sounds ---> Branden, Trevor, Cody, Brett, Matt EMAIL THEM NOW
bumpers ----> Branden, Cody, Brett, Matt EMAIL THEM NOW
(individual broadcast) theme song --> Branden, Zach, Cody, Brett EMAIL THEM NOW
Additionally, I still cannot locate the individual broadcasts for the following individuals:
Branden, Rory, Max
There are also two discussion posts that are due from each of you:
"year in review" --> got this from everyone -- hoooooo-RAY!
"research topic" --> I have yet to receive this posting from ANYONE, except for Trevor and Mike, both of whom left out the website sources they gathered.
PLEASE READ THE BLOG POSTS FOR INSTRUCTIONS, and get this stuff done
Finally, I am awaiting team broadcasts from Mike and Zach, as well as Rory and Max
That oughtta do it,
Mr. L

Tuesday June 16: two days left
Gentlemen,
What else is there to say? get everything emailed or uploaded. That way, we will have the final exam day to simply spend in one aniother's company as a last hurrah before the summer begins
You know what needs to be done. As the Nike commercials say: "JUST DO IT!"
Cheers,
Mr. L

Thursday June 11: getting it all together before the final team broadcasts
Today, you have two basic things ya gotta get done:
A) Finishing up all work from the previous several classes (see yesterday's post, and the previous several posts)
B) coming up with a topic/topic outline for your final team broadcast, and posting that as a discussion. Please label it clearly, and make sure as always that its a "school appropriate" topic
I am busy compiling what I have from each of you so far. By next week, I wish for this list to be complete. Let's work together to make it so!
"the faster we go, the rounder we get"

Wed June 10:finishing up from the day before yesterday (and a few days before that)
Gentlemen, I bid you greetings!
Today, you will need to finish up from the day before yesterday, as well as the past several days. Here is what I need to have from everyone:
A) your individual broadcast, both the whole thing put together and its component parts (the actual broadcast, the sfx sounds, bumper music, on air identifier)
B) a group discussion post based on the rough draft of the "year in review" which you were supposed to have emailed me already. The discussion post must be at least three paragrpahs inlength, with each paragraph composed of at least three complete sentences. Please include all points which you (theoretically) emailed to me yesterday. Make sure that the discussion posting is labled with your name and the phrase "year in review"
C) You need to also create a more final version of the topic for which you located eight website resources and two facts from each of those sources. This version, which you will also email to me with the subject line including your name plus the phrase "my topic" should be simply a complete sentences/complete paragraphs version of the facts you collected yesterday. In other words, write out the facts together as if you were telling a story -- which is effectively what you're aiming for.
OK, that should do it for today!

Monday June 8: End game part three
Greetings, Prestige people!
Today, you have three separate tasks to perform:
A) if you haven't already, I need your individual broadcasts, in my email in mp3 format They need to be clearly labeled, so I know who they belong to
B) You need to expand upon the research topic you chose last week by emailing me at least two facts you have discovered about your topic from EACH of the eight online sources you procured last week. Each fact must be presented in the form of a complete sentence. Make sure your email is labeled with your name and the phrase "my topic facts"
C) create a rough draft on the topic of "year in review". All you have to do for this is to email me at least seven different things that stand out in your mind about this class. Whatever you remember the best, the events that stand out the most, particular broadcasts, the teamwork, etc etc etc. Just make sure that the subject line of the email includes your name and "rough draft year in review". A complete sentence for each item you recall the best will suffice for now
OK, that oughtta do it for today
Cheers,Mr. L

Friday June 5: end game part two
Gentlemen, you got two basic things to get done today:
A) all apsects of your "individual" final broadcast need to get wrapped up. That not only includes the actual broadcast, but also all the other pieces of it that need to be part of it: new theme song, bumper music, sfx sounds, an on air identifier so I know who the heck is speaking. I need all the parts as separate files, AND the final product. speaking of which, the choice of topic is up to you, just keep it school appropriate (naturally) and GET ME THE ACTUAL MP3 FILE!
B) If you are already finished with this, or while you are waiting your turn at the production facilities, you will need to start researching a "topic pertinent to radio production". Again , the choice of topic is up to you: it could be an outstanding broadcaster, either famous or infamous --- so that leaves the field as wide open as Paul Harvey and Howard Stern -- a milestone event, such as a radio broadcast of WoodStock --is there such a thing?-- the Orson Wells "invasion from Mars" broadcast, the Hindenberg disaster, etc etc etc or even an invention, such as FM broadcasting, the invention of mp3 files, online streaming of such files, the first use of microwave towers, shortwave radio, satellite transmissions etc etc
What I will need besides a choice of topics are at least a bytes worth of websites that you could use as source citations, only one of which can be from wikipedia. Email this with your name and "topic and websites" in the subject line OK, that oughtta be enough for today
Cheers,
Mr. L
