During Maker we focused on The driving question āWhat does James Cameronās fantasy world of āAvatarā Reveal about our own society?ā. To show our answer to this question we created boxes that had to do with the different problems in the movie. We then showcased our boxes publicly at our school.Ā
The hardest part for me was creating my project in three days. The reason I only had three days to do it was because I was very sick the week before the exhibition which did not help at all. I had too finish on the weekend so I had to change my plans a lot and make the design simple yet capable of showing the point I am trying to get across.Ā
The easiest part for me was the presenting at the exhibition because I love to present my work. I used to present a lot of slide shows and so I am very comfortable with presenting my work. I love to talk to people and to see that lightbulb moment in their heads when they see the work and relate it to what Iām talking about. I also love to hear their questions. This was also my favourite part of the whole unit.
If I could go back and change something I would have more time to work on my box so that it could look more detailed. That is the only thing I would change because otherwise I think the exhibition and the project was really fun and enjoyable.Ā
Overall I had lots of fun on this project and I canāt wait for the next exhibition!
