SDI Poster

Here is the original SDI triangle that the new version is based on. Hope this helps explain some of why the graphic is the way it is.


I am working on a poster for the Strength Deployment Inventory (SDI) workshop I teach. There are sayings that go with each motivational value system (MVS). I have individual posters that I put around the room when I teach the workshop with the individual sayings but thought putting them all together in one would be a good idea. People taking the workshop really like the quotes. This poster is for a specific target audience using a specific tool, which impacts the colors and design. I thought about putting pictures/graphics with the text but did not want to distract from the quotes.

Web Activity 7


Last semester I created a social studies unit on Ancient Rome and Greece for third graders. For this assignment I decided to create a slide on the classical orders (columns) I could use in a PowerPoint to discuss Ancient Greece. I choose to use real images as opposed to pictures because if you go to Greece you won't be looking at pictures, you'll be looking at real buildings and the style of architecture that was used. I didn't use a lot of text since it is meant to go along with a presentation but even still people can understand the difference between the orders. And obviously the blue and white scheme is to correspond with Greece's colors. On the left I put the order of the presentation and italicized and put in bold the section this slide would be in.

Here are the link to the images I used:

Attached are Web Activities 6 and 7. For Web Activity 6, I decided to show part of an organizational chart to improve hiearchy using text and symbols. For Web Activity 7, I decided to create an instructional module that someone could follow when learning how to drive.
