Hi there, here we are again! After my first mPOL I started to get into more of a flow, and also understand even more what PLP is actually about. To get started. What has happened since the mPOL? We have done many new projects, such as mind over matter, or the medium is the message. You know what would be really cool? To see how much I have changed since the start of the year. So lets pull up a project from the very start of the year, and compare it to one I made recently!
This was my user guide, a project we did at the start of the year in maker. As you can see I was still new to the iPad, and I did not know how to write as well as I do now. Although I did have a lot of fun making it! It also shows how I thought at the start of the year, about PLP and school because you can tell I was much more focused on the part where I was not in “school mode”. Let’s check out something I did more recently!
This was keystone 2 for a project called “consequences of colonization”, where I got to learn all about the colonists and what happened when they arrived. But in this paragraph you can see I was much more detail focused and On point with the knowledge I was required to present. Moving on to how I can still grow, one thing I still need to work on would be my time management skills. The reason I think this is because even now I still leave things to the last minute which can lead to me being stressed and unhappy and then the work quality is much, much lower than it could be.
This was my learning plan and you can see that for this tPOL I did not include my learning plan for maker because I did not have it in the second semester. The trip to Oregon was super cool and it was an amazing experience overall, even though I was in trip 2 AND on the late bus that went up. Unfortunately I missed zip lining and I was looking forward to that. The other things we did were really cool though, one of my favourite things was yaquina head part because we got to see tons of sea life and learn about the lighthouse that is there. Another thing that we did was going to go see haystack rock which is really cool and we got to see in the tide pools and watch the birds that land on the rock. I even got a photo of me beside it!
Spring exhibition.
This was the spring exhibition and in my opinion it was way better than the winter exhibition. It was organized better, it had a bigger turnout, the teachers were less stressed, so that meant everyone was happier.
thank you for checking out this blog, I hope you learned something reading this and I will see you on the next post!
