iMovie Grading

So basically as a continuation of our reflection, we had to grade ourselves based on the rubric.

Introduction(5) - I think we would get a 5 on the intro because I think we had a pretty accurate description of Queen Nefertiti and we checked half a dozen websites to make sure the time she ruled was correct.

Pharaoh’s accomplishments(5)- From my point of view I think we should get a 5 on this because we probably got all the major factors on this since we tried our hardest to get a lot of facts.

Architectural Achievements(5)-I gave us a 5 on this because there weren’t many facts on this on the Internet about the architectural developments since nobody is actually sure she really ever ruled.

Images(3)- I gave our group a 3 on this because as I was going through mine, I realized that some of the pictures were sort of blurry which gave it bad quality. Another reason why I reduced my score is because towards the start, I noticed that my pictures didn’t necessarily match the narration.

Narration(4) I gave us a 4 on the narration because I know for a fact that we talked WAAAAYYYY to fast. So we definitely wouldn’t get full credit on that.

Transitions and Effects(4) The reason behind why I give ourselves a 4 is because when the pictures appeared they didn't appear fully since I didn’t realize there was a way to make that effect show each picture in different ways.

MLA Formatting(5) I'd give us a 5 on that because Alvin got help from Ms. Nadaraj and actually learned how to and did it.
Introduction~ A description of the pharaoh is relevant, factual and correct. Time he/she ruled is correct.54321
Pharaoh’s accomplishments ~ Clearly explains the important contributions the pharaoh made during his/her rule.54321
Architectural Achievements ~Clearly describes and explains the important buildings/monuments that were built during this time. Explain how evidence of their religious beliefs is shown in these buildings.54321

Skills Rubric
images ~ All images are relevant, interesting and of good quality (saved properly as a jpg).
Images match narration throughout.
54321
Narration ~ Voices are clear, loud and fluent with good intonation. It is obvious you have practiced your part before recording. No background noise.54321
Transitions & Effects ~ Subtle transitions between the parts of the presentation are used throughout. Any effects used only enhance the message and are compatible with the image content.54321

Along with that, we were supposed to also grade 4 other groups right? So these are the groups I chose to refer to.

The first group I chose to refer to was Megan and Laura's who refered did King Tut. Here is how I graded theirs.

Introduction- I give them a (5) on that because I think they had all the necessary facts wich seemed pretty accurate.

Pharaoh's accomplishments- I wasn't exactly sure what accomplishments were made by him.

Architectural Achievements- They should get a 5 on this because they mentioned that he built a temple in Kawa. So building temples shows evidence that he was religious.

Images- I'd give them a 4 on the pictures because the pictures matched the narration throughout but a couple of pictures here and there weren't of the best quality.

Narration- On this I'd give them a 4 because they obviously practiced and all but towards the end where there was the "Pasha mummy", there was an annoying background noise.

Transitions and Effects- I'd give them a 5 on this considering the fact that their video flowed very smoothly.

MLA Formatting- I'm not sure what I'm supposed to give them if they didn't do something because I don't think it was in MLA format.

The next group I'm going to comment on is

Stephanie and Kennedy on Hatsheput.

Introduction(5) I gave them this score because they correctly said what time period Hatsheput ruled and the dynasty as well.

Pharaohs Accomplishments(5) I gave them that because they mentioned specifically what she accomplished.

Architectural Achievements(5) They deserve a 5 on this because they clearly explained everything she developed got destroyed by Topnosis the 3rd(I think)

Images(3) I gave them this because a couple of the pictures here and there were a bit blurred and sometimes the pics didn't match the narration.

Narration(4) I gave them a 4 because a couple times they sort of stuttered on the words.

Transitions & Effects(5) There were good transitions between their pictures so their video flowed smoothly.

MLA Formatting- I don't know if they used MLA formatting.

The group after that, I reflected on Na Young and John's who did King Khufu.

Introduction(5) They had the introduction and everything about the dates

Pharaoh's accomplishments(5) It explains clearly how his greatest achievement was the Great Pyramid of Giza.

Architectural Achievements (5) The Great Pyramid of Giza also seems to be the greatest Architectural Achievement and that he might have made himself the Sun God "Ra".

Images(4) I gave them a 4 on this because a couple pictures were slightly blurry.

Narration(5) I give them a 5 because their pronunciation was pretty good and MOST of it was easy to understand, the only thing i found annoying was the background music, I'm not sure if it was just part of John's blog, but it kind of distracted me. (Never mind if it was part of his blog)

Transitions & Effects(5) There were good transitions between their pictures so their video flowed smoothly.

MLA Formatting- They didn't cite the sources at the end so I don't know.

The final group I reflected on was Maria and Andrea's who did Ramses II.

Introduction(5) They had the introduction and everything about the dates.

Pharaoh's accomplishments(5) It explains clearly explains this and how the pharaoh made the first peace treaty.

Architectural Achievements (5) They explained how he showed love through the great monuments he constructed.

images(5) I loved the pictures they had because they weren't blurry and it went along perfectly with the narration.

Narration(5) Their voices were very loud and fluent so it was really easy to understand.

MLA Formatting- They didn't cite the sources at the end so I don't know.
