Welcome to the Home Page!
Hello! My name is Gannon Black, I'm an 18 year old Alabama native from Wetumpka which lies on the Coosa River. This website is my ePortfolio project for my English class in which I show and organize all of the other projects I've worked on this semester. The main theme for this website is "Writing" because that's what we've spent most of our time doing. Before now, I wrote very little in class besides notes and the occasional book report in my English classes, this was very different than what I was used to, but it was a very enjoyable experience. The blog posts let me express myself while answering questions about the work and papers I wrote. The Rhetorical Analysis had me share my thoughts and opinions on a funny and dramatic memoir while trying to find the messages hidden in the words and imagery provided. Our Personal Narratives let us share stories from any aspect of our life with our fellow classmates to judge. Finally, our last, (and my favorite), project was the Podcast. We were put into groups to record a podcast based on the member's Personal Narratives. I had lots of fun with this Project because we were given more opportunities to express ourselves with the addition of audio. I went with a very minimalistic design, mostly because I'm a very minimalistic person myself and I like the simple black/white aspect with the colors of the background. This course was easily my favorite for this semester because of how well the class acted and how nice our teacher was.
