mPOL

Hello and welcome back to my blog! This is my mPOL post. It is about my learning so far this year.

I want to share with you my story of my blog posts and how much they’ve improved. At the start there were blog posts such as this one, but now, I have ones such as this. My very first blog post didn’t have many links or photos, but now, they have tons!

For Scimatics, I improved a lot from our first project, to our last project. Our first project was to create a numbers spreadsheet on how much screen time we’ve spent on our iPads. Our last project was to make a laser display using the Pythagorean theorem and lasers. 

I don’t want to get distracted as much doing homework, so that is one of my goals this year in Scimatics.

Did all the work you completed this year in Scimatics meet your standards? No, it didn’t. I do want to aim for rainbows, but in every assignment get at least a sun.

Next, I want to discuss Maker. The projects that we did in Maker were becoming a PLP learner, in which we did our Big Life Journal. Next, we did Constructing Creative Communication, then we are doing our geek out blog challenge. I have different goals in different parts of Maker. What I learned from Constructing Creative Communication as a project, is that you need to read the WHOLE of the instructions. You can’t skim over it, you must read it all. 

This is the photo that I am most proud of that I took: 

In Humanities, our first project was medium is the message, then we did the Outsiders, then we just finished working with words last night! In medium is the message, we made an ad for a company. Our company was the Deep Cove Heritage society. In the Outsiders, we learned about worldview and the Outsiders novel by S.E. Hinton. Working with words was a poetry project, in which we had to preform a poem that we wrote.

What is the most interesting thing that you learned in Humanities? The most interesting thing that I have learned in Humanities this year is how to make ads. It can be helpful later on in life, and also you can use the skills that you use to make ads in many different things.
