Today we worked on our culminating project. We finished our storyboard then went to the upper cafe and started to film. When we were filming all the cosmo kids came in so we ended up having 20+ people in the shot. It was fun though. We will probably finish filming everything by Friday.

Photojournalism Assignment

Albert Einstein
Albert Einstein is an American Scientist who is regarded as the most influential and most intelligent scientist of the 20th century. He was born March 14th, 1879 and passed away on 18 April 1955 in Princeton, New Jersey, USA. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1921.

This is a photo of Albert Einstein being awarded the Nobel Prize in 1921. He was awarded the prize due to his contribution in theoretical physics. His most famous contribution is E=mc2, and his theory of relativity. He changed the world.

This is a Photo of Albert Einstein and Marie Currie. Two very influential people in the scientific world. He was famous with his theory of relativity and she discovered Radium and Polonium.

This photo is very important because this is a picture of Albert Einstein giving the Nobel Lecture. He gave his Nobel Lecture on July 11th, 1923 in Gothenburg, Sweden.

This picture is of Albert Einstein standing next to two other Nobel physists Albert A. Michelson and Robert A. Millikan. They are standing in front of the California Institute of Technology in 1931.

Albert Einstein gives the 11th Josiah Willard Gibbs lecture at the meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in the auditorium of the Carnegie Institue of Technology Little Theater in Pittsburgh on December 28th, 1934.

Photo Journalism

The Problem Solving process consists of a sequence of sections that fit together depending on the type of problem to be solved. These are:
Problem Definition.
Problem Analysis.
Generating possible Solutions.
Analyzing the Solutions.
Selecting the best Solution(s).
Planning the next course of action (Next Steps)

This first step is critical.  It is essential for each group member to clearly understand the problem so that all energy will be focused in the same direction.  A good way to define the problem is to write down a concise statement which summarizes the problem, and then write down where you want to be after the problem has been resolved.  The objective is to get as much information about the problem as possible.  It may be helpful to divide the symptoms of the problem into  hard  and soft  data.

Define and Identify The Problem
Be Alert
Gather Information and Do Not Jump to Conclusions
State The Case Briefly
What Decisions Have to Be Made?
By Whom?

Some have access to 21st century technologies while others are excluded. Photojournalism provides an alternative to what Postman discusses in the “Judgment of Thamus” where he suggests that the use of computers in the classrooms will likely result in an academic culture that is isolated, individualistic and lacking in community. Petrina (2008) suggests using learning strategies that are collaborative in nature. In oral cultures the qualities of learning are cooperation, community and social responsibility (Postman, 1992, p. 17). Photojournalism can be used as a way to communicate a message and include those individuals who learn best through visual images.
