Mixed Media

I like the idea of this website. The pictures lead you into a different world. It's like the pictures are a gateway, and what you read is determined by what you saw. You choose the ones that are appealing to your eye and then read what goes along with that picture. Once you actually start to look at the media there are so many different kinds of media. There is a poem called Faith that using music and sound and color and visual effects to represent what it is actually saying. There are short movies that are meant for children. All of the media seems so complex and so much more than i feel like i ever learned how to do on the computer. I look at them and think about how i can barely make a power point. I think these e literature things represent where literacy is going in the near future and i think it is a sign that we can either jump on the band wagon and go along witht he changes that society are making or we can be left in the dust. All of these multi media projects are reading, they are learning children and adults can gain something by looking at them and that is literacy. Technology is changing and with it comes change in our daily lives, what we read, how we read it, and where we read it are going to change too.
