Our first English project this year was to create an iPhone user guide but for ourselves. We also had to create a Memoji of ourselves with laptop stickers. Our driving question was “How can I creatively communicate who I am?”.
Here is my User guide 2020.
Reflecting is one of the best ways to really understand what you have learned so we were of course asked to do a reflection of the project.
A reflection of My User Manual:
We started off with the launch to answer the question “How can I creatively communicate who I am?”. One of the main things I needed to know was who I was. During the building knowledge phase, we did a lot of exercises trying to describe who we are. I found that I was pretty ok at describing myself but sometimes I was at a loss for words. We learned lots of iPad and app tricks that I found really helpful. When choosing the stickers for my Memoji laptop, I think I did well at finding symbols that represent who I am. I liked doing the peer critique because I enjoy receiving feedback on my work. My favourite parts of the user manual were writing the settings, warnings, and tips to maintain optimal performance, because I kind of liked making fun of myself a little bit.
Sticking with the theme of communicating who we are, everyone choose/designed laptop stickers to put on our Memoji. The stickers had to uniquely represent you in such a way that someone may be able to tell who the stickers belong to. This was mine:
Despite the fact that this was my first PLP project, I feel I did relatively well and I am ready to take on the next project with more confidence and new-found knowledge.
As always, Brooke.
Great first reflection, Brooke. I’d love to see your thoughts on some of the stepping stones too! Great blog subtitle!
This is so cool!! I’m so excited to see the more posts!
