Weekly Reflection

I have researched how to use iMovie,I have made up questions for the interview, and I have decided who I am going to interview.

Over the next four days, I will set a time to interview everyone and start some interviews. I will also try to gather some more information on I am going to structure my project.

I can work on my project in class but I choose not to because there are lots of distractions(particular people) that keep me from doing what I have to do.

My project is still in its beginning stage, but I am progressing at a steady speed.

Goals

1. Decide who to interview and what I am going to ask.
2. Set up a time to use the camera to take pictures.
3. Gather some music to play in the background for the project.
4. Conduct an interview with atleast two people.

Self-Regulation

1.For me, the best learning environment for me is school, home, and the library.

2.I don’t study, but when I do study mostly in school.

3.I work creatively at home because I am able to express my self in a safe environment.

4.I don't like to work with others but I will if I have to.

5.My favorite way to learn is listening and taking notes and doing hands on work.

6.My talents are writing, speaking, and drawing.

7.I am interested in writing and speaking in public.

8.It depends on what I am doing.

9.No I am not persistent in checking my work.

Project Idea

My project is going to be a short film telling how of my high school experiences. In this film, I will use music, pictures, interviews, dialogue, and much more demonstrating what a regular high school student goes through. I don't think doing the project will be hard what will be hard is gathering the information. Maybe if I do very well on this project it could be used in the future as a reference for prospective high school students so they will know what high school is really about.
