To begin with I was both certain and uncertain of what I wanted to do for my final presentation. I had decided right off that I didn't want to just do a basic presentation, figuring that the class (and myself) would appreciate something more interesting, and almost immediately, my mind was cast back (though I don't know why...) to an eleventh grade english class that had made quite an impact on me. We had been reading The Handmaid's Tale, a novel that was known for its strange uncertainty of chronology, and my teacher had handed my class a bunch of excerpts from the book and asked us to put them in the right order.

still in the works, but it's easier to show pictures and video online than it is on paper! 
If anyone wants to do something similar, or finds an even better website to do it with, feel free!

For our final presentation, our group (consisting of Maria, Julia, Katherine, and myself) put together a game of Apples to Apples using terms and vocabulary from the course. 

Apples to Apples is a game of association and definition. Each player is given seven noun cards and a stack of adjective cards lays between all of the players. One player turns over an adjective card and it is their job, for that round, to judge the noun cards that are applied to that adjective. For example, I turn over the adjective card "Virtual." Maria lays down "Serendip," Julia lays down "MMORPGs" and Katherine lays down "Batman." I choose "Serendip," because I think that best fits the adjective (although Batman would be a close second).

So this is a bit late, but there's something that's been bugging me, and I feel that I just need to get it out there. I'll begin with this image:

How does one tell illusion from reality?
