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.
