209 bluesky journal
trying out this whole creativity thing ....
If there are no rubrics and no right or wrong answers, is grading completely based off of effort? If so does that mean creativity is most of our grade? #hwa1 #burningquestion

I had you on 1.5x speed because I cannot watch anything at 1x speed anymore. Speeding up tiktoks on 2x speed has honestly fried my brain. Anything less than 1.5x speed seems way too slow. #hwa1 #defspeedyouup

TRUE - we should cross-link our SME project links between Bluesky and Canvas. #hwa1 #wherestuffgoes
January 24, 2026 at 6:32 PM
FALSE - I can post Tweets late to X. If you reach out to Ashley beforehand with an emergency you can email them to her, but they can never be posted late on X because it messes up the thread. #hwa1 #areyoupayingattention

It's clear to me that all of our reactions and discussions with classmates will happen on Bluesky. Canvas will be used to submit our projects and we can find instructions for these projects on the Canvas. I don't have any confusion as of now. #hwa1 #workflowcheck

I am feeling both nervous and excited to take this course. I am nervous because I am used to science courses with exams with right and wrong answers. I think this course will take me out of my comfort zone, but I am excited to do something that involves creativity. #hwa1 #vibecheck

The third voice is included in the final project, and it comes in during the last minute or two of the video. It is the product of two things colliding, the video and the sound which are unrelaetd to each other. #hwa1 #thethirdvoice

The SME I am most excited to try is SME#1. I am never someone who uses GPT because it honestly scares me. I feel weird about asking it questions but I am also very intrigued to hear what it comes up with. #hwa1 #smefeelings

Ashley compares GPT to a jester because GPT gives the an answer confidently, however it is not always accurate. And it molds to answer like you. #hwa1 #jester

This course isn't a traditional writing course because we are not looking for perfection or the right and wrong answers. We are going to be more creative. We will also use GPT to develop our thinking and use it as a tool, not as an answer machine. #hwa1 #nontraditional

I tried to watch Hanging With Ashley #1 in 2 sittings, but when I came back to finish the video it reset and made me watch from the beginning again. Is there a way to save my progress on the video? #hwa1

Hi 🙋‍♀️ yes I am one of the people who is freaked out by AI. It's so weird to scroll through social media and not know what is real and what is AI generated. I'm so fearful of it because not everyone knows how to tell the difference between what is real and what is AI. #hwa1

This class happens on bluesky and not canvas because this course is a chorus and not a solo. Bluesky allows us to interact together in a live setting. Canvas just feels like you're responding to check an assignment off and isn't very interactive. #hwa1 #XnotCanvas ... #BlueskynotCanvas

I'm surprised that this class is not a class where you write essays. When I registered I saw composition in the name so I assumed we would write some. I'm very thankful this class isn't set up that way. #hwa1 #notthatclass

I'm here. I'm alive. I'm actually listening to you. :) #hwa1 #notabot

I'm a little confused on the grading. If there are no right or wrong answers in 209 how do you go about the grading process? Is it more just based on apparent effort? #hwa1

The "Zoom Doom Room" made me laugh because why is it so accurate. For some reason it's so much scarier to join a professor's office hours over zoom than to just go in person. I'm more worried about my mic and my camera than what I'm asking. #hwa1

I am so glad that no experience is required for this class. I have never edited videos or edited together sound clips so I was a bit fearful. But I am excited to learn some new skills. #hwa1
January 23, 2026 at 7:41 PM
WOW not a writing intensive course? Thank god because I am really not a strong essay writer. Remixing sounds and videos? That sounds so much cooler. #hwa1

I used to keep up with some news and sports using Twitter, but I have never in my life used X (and I won't) so I am very happy to be using bluesky. #blueskyfeelings

My kindle is an extension of me. Anywhere I go I bring my kindle. No matter how little time I have I will use it to read a few pages. #hello209
