When I created the star, I tried to change the color of the star. Once I found the change color button, it was a matter of where to put it to change the color. I simply used the process of elimination until putting the button after the running stitch button finally changed the color of the star. I just made the example star.

- What accessibility issues crop up for the page you chose? I chose the main page for the SIUE Mass Communications Department. The only errors I encountered after running the page through WAVE were three empty headings with no context.
- Who is most likely to need the content on the page? Anyone interested in joining the Mass Communications Department. Anyone who cannot physically come to the university for information.
- How might the accessibility issues impede people’s access to the content? Who might be most impacted? The headings without information may hinder people who cannot understand the information displayed in different ways.
- Name one or two ways that the accessibility of the site could be improved – the smaller and easier, the better! By adding more information in those headings, people would have more information to understand what the Mass Communications Department offers.
In week 14, civic technology sounds quite intriguing to me. One side effect of the internet is having a visceral understanding of the problems of our present. While technology offers an endless list of comforts, entertainment, and benefits, learning how technology can be used for change, even on local levels, is exciting and comforting. The assignment on reviewing AI fiction also sounds interesting and up my alley. Being a fan of all media, viewing different individuals’ imaginations on future technologies is always intriguing. Engaging with cultural conversation with these fictions gives way to our concerns of future technologies. Who will innovate, who will it be innovated for, who will oversee keeping future technology in our best interests. etc. As the semester continues, dipping into topics like how technology can aid developing solutions to problems like wealth inequality, climate change, and others could be interesting. Basically, how can we as a society maximize the productivity of technology rather than simply for the use of comfort and ease.
My Active Platforms
- X/Formerly Known As Twitter: The communities I listen to are mostly pop culture/movie/TV show related. I love movies so my following page is built around movie discourse of all kinds with news of coming soon movies. I do not post my own tweets very frequently, when I do, they are more interest related than personal. I don’t tweet about myself personally due to uncomfortability.
Things to know about me: i love reading, watching movies, TV. I enjoy the outdoors and traveling. When I travel, I am more of a city person than rural person. My favorite cities I have traveled to are Chicago and New York City.
I have a photo of the NYC skyline when I visited, but I could not find it.
