Module 1
Personal Logo created with Inkscape
Our task was to create a personalized logo using the program Inkscape. For my logo, I used a combination of self-drawn pictures and modified google images. The final product is my name balanced on a soccerball sitting in a grassy field. As a final touch, I gave my name a sombrero to keep it cool.
Aunt Elma's Pies Professional Logo
I created this logo for an imaginary company called "Aunt Elma's Pies." Using actual images of pie slices and the slogan "the more the better," I am subconsciously encouraging potential buyers to purchase the sweets in bulk.
CSS Challenge
For the CSS Challenge, we were given the HTML file of a dull, un-decorated web page. The HTML file had a link to a blank CSS file that we were to fill with code in order to make the site look a certain way. There are links here to both the website and the CSS code that I wrote to make it look that way.

Module 2
Bird Flu Model
Our Module 2 Group Project was to use either AgentSheets or NetLogo to model the Water Cycle or the Bird Flu. Our group used NetLogo to model the spread of the BirdFlu, and you can see our model in an online applet.

Agent Sheets ModelModule 2 1-29-08
In our first AgentSheets class, we set up a basic model with only grass growing. Then, after we became more comfortable with using AgentSheets, we added rabbits and eventually wolves to the model. There is a brief description of the model on the applet (link above).
Module 3
Excel Disease Model
In this module's classes about Microsoft Excel, we learned how to do some new things and how to do our old ones faster. I learned how to make slider bars and graphs within my Exel spreadsheet, copy formulas down an entire column, and replace cell coordinates with an actual name. This particular model is of the susceptible, infected, and recovered stages of a disease.
