Use the link below to find a basic tutorial for pbworks. Also, note the video below for an illustration of how to change your background. Lastly, in the How To folder in the right margin, a former student explains how to use playlist.com to embed an mp3 player that will automatically start a song of your choice (non-copyrighted). You can embed the player even more simply than the instructions present. Once you've created an account, add a song to your playlist, then click share--and simpy copy the embed code. Use insert above, then html/javascript and copy the embed code.
Above: An sample of the many videos on Youtube that will illustrate how to edit your pbworks page. If you don't have the answer, seek one who does!
This is not the official trailer for the movie; however, there will be a new film version of The Great
Gatsby starring Leonardo Dicaprio scheduled to be released 25 December 2012.
Great Gatsby Activity
Create a page in your class web folder. For the page name, use the first and last name of both you and your partner.
Motif #1: Daisy's Voice
Using the online Gatsby text, locate and copy each time Fitzgerald addresses "Daisy's voice." Paste your findings onto your wiki page. After each quote, identify the chapter from which it came.
Once complete, compose a five-sentence (or more) analytical paragraph drawing your own conclusions as to how Fitzgerald uses Daisy's voice to add meaning to the novel.
Motif #2: T. J. Eckleburg
Do the same as above for the eyes of Dr. T. J. Eckleburg. Will you put this on the same page, or create another page and link them together?
Now: Be creative! Dress up your page. Make it the best one. Decorate. Add relevant video. Attach an avatar to greet your guests. Make your page the most interesting and dynamic one.
