First Day Fall 2024 – Welcome to Computer Graphic Design!

Links:
None.

Topics Discussed:

  • Computer Graphic Design
  • Room 225
  • Mister Marmolejo
  • Yourself!

Assignment:

Welcome to my classroom website for Computer Graphic Design 1-2! Frankly, I’m surprised you’re here – I’m not going to introduce this website to the rest of the class for another couple of days. I guess until then, it’ll be our little secret. This website will be your one-stop shop for all classroom assignments, announcements and materials pertaining to the class.

  1. Take a look around! I’ll explain everything here very soon.
  2. Tomorrow we’re going to do one of those “getting to know you” activities. I know, you’re probably going to do something like this in every class for the next few days. Don’t worry, I’ll do my best to make it fun.
  3. The fact that you even found this site shows you have a remarkably inquisitive and adventurous personality. Those qualities will serve you well here. When you meet me, mention the secret words “Salted Caramel Latte“, and I’ll give you a prize. Don’t tell anyone else! It’s a secret to everybody.
