Client Project



The biggest challenge we've had on our client project is getting feedback from the client. We've tried contacting them several times, but we are still waiting on the info we need.

The best thing about this project is that it has really opened my eyes as to how complex organizing a big group working on one project can be. I think I've learned a few organizational skills through this process.

I've worked in teams several times both in high school and college, so that was really nothing new. However, it is always a challenge to try to decide everyone's skills and really get things going. We did spend a lot of time working on this project.

Dual Coding Theory

I think the Nike Ad is relevant mostly to the verbal side of Dual Coding. I'm not entirely sure what it is an image of... so I'm just going to go off of the words presented.

The words "Practice Like Champions" and "We Believe" are both positive, inspirational sayings. They put Nike in a positive light, as someone rooting for the hard working players who dream of being great.

But like I said, it is not clear to me- someone who knows next to nothing about football- what the actual image is of. I could be missing something.
