Week Seven: Day Thirty One: Tuesday, September 30, 2008
Homecoming Week
Tie Dye Day

I had the brainstorm of compiling all the "moments" the editor had written into a single document and let the staff read them and see what they though about the different way s they were written. I had given the editors the task of writing up one single meaniful moment that they hadd experienced. Some did it in first person and others did it as an interview in third person. Once they had read all of them they were to pick the one they thought was the best and then list five things about it that made it the best. Then they were to make another list of what they felt were the weaknesses in the others. For various reason almost all of them got votes, but it appears that the ones in first person were preferred.

Then I had each staff member try an write up one of their own moments and then type it up on the computer.
