A colorful digital illustration titled "Why Am I Passionate About Teaching?" features a smiling male educator in a blue plaid shirt holding a tablet in a diverse classroom setting. The tablet displays a website titled "Show What You Know with Media" by Wesley Fryer, Ph.D., showcasing various creative project icons like "Digital Story," "Puppet Video," and "GeoMap" under the heading "What do you want to CREATE today?" In the background, students are gathered around a table with STEM materials, including one student in a pink "GEORGIA" sweatshirt. The website address "wesfryer.com" is prominently displayed in the bottom-left corner.
I recorded a 2 minute video today: "Why I Am Passionate About Teaching."

Two colorful horizontal web banners featuring a mashup of Minecraft and Scratch programming imagery against a split background of a blocky landscape and a coding interface. The top banner, labeled "1.0 CLASS INFO & RESOURCES," shows the Scratch Cat standing with Minecraft characters Steve and Alex amidst floating coding blocks. The bottom banner, labeled "2.0 GETTING STARTED ASSIGNMENTS," depicts the characters engaged in tasks: Steve sits at a computer with a "screenshot" icon, Alex holds a checklist, and the Scratch Cat stands nearby, surrounded by peripherals like a keyboard and mouse.

A collage showing screenshots of Wes Fryer’s YouTube Shorts from his June 14, 2025 “No Kings” rally speech in Charlotte, North Carolina. The thumbnails feature Wes speaking on stage in a blue Air Force shirt with a microphone and paper notes, the “No Kings” banner visible behind him. Text overlays include phrases like “Find out the story of your neighbors,” “We Reject Monarchy,” “Resist with Media,” and “Democratic.” On the left, a playlist cover reads “Shorts from #NoKings June 14, 2025 (by Wes Fryer)” with highlighted text “wfryer.me/nokings” and “wesfryer.com” in bold yellow letters.

A four-panel comic strip shows a man’s journey from digital overwhelm to organized curation. In the first panel, a blonde man with glasses looks stressed while surrounded by chaotic notifications, emojis, and clickbait words; a thought bubble with a Gmail logo and lightbulb offers clarity. In the second panel, he smiles at his computer alongside a friendly robot, with a thought bubble showing Gmail, Mastodon, and Flipboard logos as his idea. The third panel illustrates a clean flowchart: Gmail → Google Apps Script → Mastodon, symbolizing the workflow. In the final panel, hands hold a tablet displaying a neat Flipboard magazine-style feed of curated articles, with the GitHub logo subtly in the corner, conveying open-source sharing.
