Mutual Fund Website

A screen shot of the Mutual Fund Website we made in Dream weaver. It was the third part of the Mutual Fund Assignment for grade 11s. I didn't really learn anything from this assignment, it didn't take vary long to do, nor was it hard.

Dreamweaver Book

In this class we worked through the Dream weaver MX Book. This is a sample from one of the websites it told us to make. I got a little carried away with the picture, but it was fun. The book was a little dull at points, not like it was really supposed to be all that interesting. But it was neat because I’d never worked with Dream weaver before, so I learned a ton.

My Blog

My other Blog, 'Jonas Vs. Anime', is my response to our blog assignment. We where to start a blog about a topic that we know a far bit about and talk about it. What we think of it, are ratings, ex. We where also to experiment with loading pictures and videos, as well as linking to other pages.

In my blog I talked about the Animes: Gravitation, FMA, Loveless, Bleach and Air Gear. I also talked about going to Anime North and have pictures for that. Each post about a specific anime also has it's opening video.

Flash C.Y.O.A.G.

This is my Chose Your Own Adventure Game that I made. It's a mass, that doesn’t really meat all the requirements of the assignment, but I like it.

The components where to make a came that the user could go throw and pick up 5 items that well have some effect on the rest of the game. The game should be self explanatory and easy to navigate...here’s what I came up with.

Flash Book

We worked through the flash book; this is the wagon flash that I got a little carried away with. I used gradients, buttons, motion twins and my basic programming skills to do this.

Flash Website

This is my flash website assignment. I took all the games I had made in my programming class and combined them into this. I'm pretty proud of it, considering all the work that I've put into it. I did have to chage a few things with the games thems selfs, but they still run farlt well. With the exeption of my ISU game, wich died when I copied it over, so a lot from that is missing and you can't win or get back out of it. Also in Pac Man the came was originally made on a different frame rate, so now the walls don't work.

Mutual Fund

This was one of the biggest assignments in this course, lasting about 1 month. The objective was to make a Mutual Fund with 3 other students on market watch. Each member of the grope was assigned a portfolio: technology, manufacturing, banking and raw materials (me). We would buy stocks within our fields and over the course of the month track how are portfolio moved. We where also tracking the Dow and NASDAQ to compare how we where doing to the overall market. After collecting all the data we used Excel to create graphs of our portfolios and then mutual fund as a whole. We also compared our portfolios and mutual fund to the Dow and NASDAQ, and against each other. We also needed to name our mutual fund and create a logo. We then took all the information and transferred it into Power Pont and presented it to the class.

The grope work component to this was the only dislikable part. Trying to gather all the information together and make it all compatible was annoying; along with peoples lack of general communication really slowed this project.

Business Card

This was the second big assignment of my business class; a Business Card. The criteria was to have an image, be 3' by 2', have you're name, position, company name, company address, phone and/or e-mail and a slogan. I'm rather proud of my Business Card; I never knew how to make a watermark in Microsoft Word before.

The Chair that sucked.

This was a letter of complaint that was the first thing that I did in my Business class. We where told to write a formal, professionalish letter to complain to a company of our chose about something of our chose. It could be based on a personal experience or made up. I did mine on a real chair in my class that was broken, and on further inspection, I discovered there where numerous broken chair throughout the class.

I learned that to make a professional rant letter, it can't just be mindless yelling or it will get nowhere. It should also include as much detail as possible about the problem, and ways you think they could fix it.

To who it may concern,

I would like to bring to your attention an incident involving one of your products, a plastic five-wheel desk chair. The lever that lets the user change the height of chair has broken. This causes the chair to be extremely low to the floor and makes sitting on it quite uncomfortable and altogether unpleasant.

You may wish to consider making the lever out of some other materials, more durable and less prone to damage, as I know I’m not the only who how has encountered this problem. Apart from this I was rather pleased with the comfort and simplicity of the chair, and would like to continue thinking of it as a good, usable product.

I sincerely hope you think about my suggestion and work to improve upon your product. If you need any more information on mine or any of my associate’s problems with the chair feel free to contact me at the address above.

Thank you for letting me bring this to your attention,

Sincerely,



Shannon Reichert
