For this assignment, I used Bookr, a tool used to put pictures into a photobook with flickr. I could use this presentation tool to communicate my PWS by showing pictures of me running, others running, inspirational quotes, and non-typical runners. The pictures of myself would be used to illustrate why I run and how long I've been doing it (even though I have a love/hate relationship with running). I could use pictures of other people running to show that anyone can do it. For example, pictures of grade-school-aged kids running, college runners in uniform, middle-aged runners in marathons, and older runners. Inspirational quotes and pictures of people you wouldn't normally see running would help to motivate others. At the end of my PWS I included links to Cliff Young and Ben Comen, two incredible stories of unusual runners. Pictures of runners who have prosthetics or disabilities would show people they can do it, too.
The benefits of this tool would be the use of images, because pictures tell a story more quickly that words. However, just using images might not tell the entire story or prove my point as well. It would take away from a lot of the narration I have included.
