12th Week - E-Books

wow, time do sure pass by when your are really occupied with something to do....

assignmnets are rising like Mount Santubong, but with little time to do it.



and now there's another task to be done...we are to create an E-book in pairs and me and Liyana decided to create an E-book based on animals.

Before proceeding to the process of creating our e-book, Pn. Foziah showed us some examples and the criteria of how an e-book should be.

So, in brief, an e-book should have:

1) a theme for its storyline.


2) setting (time and place)


3) a plot that shows the conflict, climax and resolution for the storyline

4) characterization (characters in the story)


5) navigational tools to make sure that the slides can work properly

6) clear and colorful pictures to portray the storyline

7) sound effects that come together with the e-book reading.

It was indeed a big help when Pn.Foziah showed us some examples of e-book with a brief information on how to create a good one. That me and my partner had some inspiration and ideas to create ours in a way that will be useful to the pupils' learning. In fact, with all the skills learned from photo editing in Module 2, we managed to edit the pictures that were to be inserted in our e-book.

As it is copyrighted, I decided to insert only the first page of the e-book entitled 'Going To the Zoo'. He he.



So, here is an overview of our e-book:

A trip to the zoo by a boy with his father and little sister. He shared his experience as he described the animals that he saw.

After coming out with the storyline and preparing the first draft of the e-book, we consulted Pn.Foziah for her words of wisdom. Yes, there were few changes that needed to be done.

After the consultation time, she showed us some edited videos of Chun and Ella that were made by their fans out there. She informed us that later we are to create one for each pair. Also these videos are samples for one of the tasks that are meant for Module 4, where we are going to deal with video editing. The videos gave us some basic ideas on how to create a video on our own.

And for the task, my partner, Liyana and I decided to choose 'Pollution' as the theme for our video editing task. just wait for the next post on it ok...

And as expected, Puan. Foziah gave us the addition for module 2..hoooooooooooooorah!
