First assignment, let’s remix the How To format!
a) Make a How to Be! connected to something that introduces who you are, your hobby or your community.
This is my Selfie about How to Behave Like a Swede (A selfie is a self-portrait photograph, typically taken with a hand-held digital camera or camera phone – Wikipedia).
The text on the T-shirt reads:
- Capital: Stockholm
- Population: 9 million
- Currency: Krona
- Food: Herring
- Dress: All natural
- Music: Abba
- Pastivities: Sauna’s
b) Share your favorite examples (and non-examples!) of good How To guides:
The co-facilitators weekly newsletter introduced us to wikiHow and I found How to Get Six Pack Abs, but you can also take the shortcut How To Get “Ripped” Without Exercising.
In the CLMOOC Make Bank I submitted the assignment Create an Animated Avatar.
I then decided to add my tutorial and made this post the URL. On the About Voki page you can read:
The Voki characters can be customized to look like historical figures, cartoons, animals, and even yourself! Give your Voki a voice by recording with a microphone, using our dial-in number, or uploading an audio file. Voki characters can be emailed, shared on social media, and embedded on websites!
After creating an accont I made the following selections:
- Head: Toons-Male-Teen Ryan
- Hair: Spiky
- Mouths: Narrow
- Face Hair: None

Thanks for submitting the Voki ideas to the Make Bank. I am sure some folks will now try it out, thanks to you.
Sincerely
Kevin
