These are the 2 slides I have for manifestation. I use the first book of Harry Potter as my example. I also got my information from Wikipedia about FRBR: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FRBR#FRBR_Entities
Do they look ok?
Good job team!
Natalie: Good job! Your powerpoint slides look fantastic!
I'm actually back in the Bay Area this weekend to visit my parents. But I will check back periodically to work on this project.
Toshu, it sounds like you're experienced with PowerPoint. I agree that a little animation such as sentences flying into the slides would be great. But nothing too dramatic.
I have never used Mac computer before so I have no idea about converting between Mac and PC. But I assume that they're all Microsoft softwares so hopefully we won't run into too many technical problems.
As for the copyright issue, I agree with Natalie that since we're not trying to sell anything. We're merely borrowing the pictures for educational purpose. I don't think that should raise any copyright concerns. Of course we can always consult the professor if we have concerns.
I have emailed the professor for more details about this assignment. This is what I asked:
"Do we use one 'work' to explainall four entities of FRBR? Do we have to explain what each entity is in the PowerPoint slide or do we justgive examples of each entity? What other informationdo we need to include on the PowerPoint slide? Is there any way you could post the details of thisexercise on Blackboard?"
This is what he replied:
"Amber, Yes use one work in E1."
That was all he wrote...He really likes to write short emails...
But I also asked him about this group function in Blackboard. I remembered seeing a group discussion function where we can post private discussions and chat live together on Blackboard. It would really help us a lot to coordinate our group work together. Prof. Ellett is looking into that right now.

Internet Images
Thanks for the vote of confidence, Pam. As far as Internet images are concerned, I think we are o.k. because we are using them for educational purposes and not publishing them.

progress so far
Hi all! Natalie you are jamming!! It does look good, and have to agree that having a picture of the Harry Potter book at the "Work" level would be premature - since its supposed to be the idea of. I like the image of the brain too. I have a question about photos though - can we use just about anything? I'm wondering about copyright and getting images of the web. Is it all up for grabs? Is there a good site to get photos that are free?
I had a thought about quotes from others...that we should keep that to a minimum. Toshu gave a quote that I think was too long for our assignment. Oh, and it looks like Dr. Bob gave us a little more on the directions today. Still not much!! I don't think we need a whole lot either.
So, I did a very slight amount of searching and found two web sites that are pertinent. One is www.frbr.org - a blog all about FRBR. But what looked more interesting was one of the links off to the left http://techessence.info/frbr - this site gives good definitions to help understand the model.
I don't have experience with PowerPoint and animation. It sounds like Toshu can handle that if we need them. But really the slides so far do look great. Do we need more?
Oh, and finally, I have 2007 version of PowerPoint, running on a PC. Like all MS I'm sure it can save with a lower version. I haven't checked though. Like Toshu, I'll be working on my part during the weekend. and a long one too - Yeah a holiday!!
It looks great!
Natalie,
It looks great!
May I ask what kind of image is above the image of the author on the slide?
I am going to work on my part.
Thanks.
Have a great weekend!

Work Image and PPT version
I was thinking that a picture of a book cover would be inappropriate for the WORK slide because a work does not yet have physical form. With the slide, I was hoping to convey the creative product, Harry Potter, is still in the form of Rowling's idea. What do you think?
As far as translating between Mac ppt and PC, there shouldn't be a problem. It would be the same Word docs.
I forgot to add that I changed the WORK slide to what I have included in this post.
Great slides!
Hi
Natalie,
Thank you for the template.
It's wonderful slides!
It looks great wihout animations.
It would be nice if you upload images of book cover (Harry Potter 1) on the "Work" slide.
How about images of the author?
How about these sentences?
"Work difines a distinct intellectual or artistic creation."
"A work is an abstract entity; there is no single material object one can point to as the work. We recognize the work through individual realizations or expressions of the work, but the work itself exists only in the commonality of content between and among the various expressions of the work. When we speak of Homer’s Iliad as a work, our point of reference is not a particular recitation or text of the work, but the intellectual creation that lies behind all the various expressions of the work. "

Do you think ppt conversion between MAC and Windows is easy?
I made a slide presentaion for my department.
It was a student distribution manual. I use many animations on letters, links, & icons to be attractive to student works.
Do you think ppt conversion between MAC and Windows is easy?
I don't mind arranging animations for all slides if you guys want animations.
You guys will tell me it's too much or not.
I will work on "Expression" part with Natalie's template.
Thanks.

One more
Is anyone good at animating ppt? If so, I would recommend this person be the one to put it all together in the end. I am not, so these slides are just is they look. Please feel free comment and critique. I added a little to it because I wanted to add a little context to the presentation. If you don't like something, please let me know. I am not trying to be pushy- just excited about this class and a lot of time on my hands right now.
Everydoby has same power point version? Which Harry Poter?
Hi
For example for each group member:
Natalie -- work
Toshu -- expression
Amber -- manifestation
Pamela -- item
This is an example. I don't mind any part.
So, please select a part you want.
I have Microsoft Office 2003/ power point, not 2007.
It would be easier if we all have the same version.
If we all have the same version, Natalie can send the templates to each one of us.
Individually, we will be able to work on the presentation over this weekend.
And, next week, we will put all together.
We will coordinate and unify our works.
A brave group menber will put all presentation together. And, we will discuss.
Please let me know.
But, before we start, It is essential for us to decide which Harry Potter book we will select for this presentation.

Great!
I am glad everyone likes the template. I will continue with my slide and pass it on to the next in line. (can't remember off hand who that is- I will have to look at Toshu's post again)

Good template
I like the design also, Natalie. Thanks a lot for getting a jumpstart on the PowerPoint slide.
ppt design
I like the design. I think the composition notebook layout fits our task. Good template choice.
Thanks Natalie!
Thanks Natalie!
Checking in with ppt design
Here are the first two slides I created. I wanted to check in and make sure everyone likes my template choice.
Explanation Needed
I forgot to add that I agree we need to explain the term we are representing in our slide.
Harry Potter a go
It sounds like have arrived at an agreement on Harry Potter Book I. I have no problem with the way Toshu divided the assignment up. I could start the ppt off with WORK and we could pass it around for each to add their part?
Pam, I hope you don't feel left out. I think we all understand about obligations. I don't work, and I have not started my internship yet- so I have A LOT of time.

my two cents
Hello everybody!
I feel like I'm at a little bit of a disadvantage here - I don't have internet access at work, so I have to be at home to participate. Hopefully it won't cause a major issue. I typically get home shortly after 5pm and log onto the computer right away. I can give you my phone number if something major comes up and it can't wait.
As far as dividing up the work up by sections as Toshu suggested, that's fine. One thought is that we should try to have some consistency with the slides when we put them all together, such as same type font, same coloring.
Amber asked: Just to double check again, on the PowerPoint slide, do we just write down the example we're using, or do we have to explain what manifestation is?
I think we have to explain it, and each part. Not that we have a lot of instructions to go off, but it sounds like we have to assume the person reading our PP doesn't know FRBR and by reading our PP will then understand it, or at least the Group 1 portion.

Sounds like a good plan, Toshu.
Thank you for asking Prof. Ellett.

Yes from Dr. Bob!
I received the following message from Dr. Bob.
"Hi Toshu,
Yes you can use one of Harry Potter's works for Exercise 1."
Shall we go ahead with Harry Potter?
It sounds exciting!!
Natalie, the image looks great!
Will you able to download an image of Harry Potter in another language?
I might be able to download an image of Harry Potter in Japanese.
Shall we divide our power points works?
For example:
Natalie -- work
Toshu -- expression
Amber -- manifestation
Pamela -- item
And, we could check each other's work
Please let me know!
Thank you.

I am not sure when I get answer from Dr. Bob.
I am not sure he is back to his office.
Usually, he answers back quickly.
Shall we wait the process untill we get his answer?

Harry Potter ( I just remembered !)
Harry Potter sounds good. But...
Does anybody remember Dr. Bob mentioned about Harry Potter at the end of the class session?
Is he going to use Harry Potter for another project?

Images for ppt
I am thinking in terms of images of cover art we can access. Do you know where to obtain these alternative image covers?
Expression
Harry Potter is so popular and has been translated into many languages.
Expression in different languages.
William Shakespeare, too.
And many of them became movies: Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet .

Harry Potter 1st book
Yeah I think first book sounds fine.
The title should be Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.
So do we all agree on Harry Potter?

Harry Potter too
Harry Potter is a great idea too. There are many manifestations- but what about expressions? Should we use the first book or the whole set?
Harry Potter?
Hi all:
Natalie, thank you for setting up this blog and allowing us to be contributors for this blog. I think this will be more effective for our communication.
So we just have to come up with one example for FRBR group 1 entity right?
I like the Harry Potter example.
If I understand FRBR correctly, it would be:
Work: The works of Harry Potter written by J.K. Rowling
Expression: Harry Potter in different translation
Manifestation: Harry Potter DVD
Item: The actual book of Harry Potter in a library
Is this correct?

Group blog page looks great!
Thank you.
It looks great!
I think we move on Action 1
We decide on a famous work. So. we will have more choices of Expression and Manifestation.
I would say... Harry Potter? works of Ernes Hemingway, William Shakespeare?
(The works became movies), Jurassic park?
Please let me know what you think.
Action1:
Select & decide: Work, Expression, Manifestation, & Item
For example
Work:
The old man and the sea / Ernest Hemingway
Expression:
The old man and the sea (Japanese translation)
Manifestation:
DVD, VHS, PlayawayItem: A patron borrows DVD version of the old man and the sea
Action 2:
Assign & construct Power point
For example
Toshu will be assigned to construct a power point of “Work.”
Action 3:
Put all together!
