I worked well with my group. I feal like i brought a good energy to my group. I talked to all my members with good respect. My work ethic needs some work I could of helped out my group a little more.I found myself getting off topic alot. I am a very funn person to work with. I can work with anyone. Me and isaih spent alot of time in weinberg. Are work was very neat and you can see the effort that was put into this.I think next time we do something like this we should get to pick the partners we trust through. Because everyone in are class knows eachother. And i feel like if we had that option it was push us more towards getting more work done. I wish the people who we asked for the information could of got us are info becuase i actually wanted to know. I go to mid pacific and i feal like that would of been cool facts to know. But we scatterd useful information that shocked the new principle of the high school.
Some people had really good infographics.Are infographic is pretty good but more information wouldnof made it perfect.Are infographic did inpress the principle of the school which i think was very satisfying for me and my group. There wasnt any surprises on the critques of the infograph i mean everything they said about needed more info and stuff made since. The people who were suppose to give us are information backed out so it was a little hard to gather that information. But considering that this was very last minute facts i feal are group exucuted that very well and deserve a somewhat reasonable grade.
We did alot of mpx stuff last week involving rwanda. Some of it was very graphic but we have to learn it. Mpx is starting to pick up.I am excited to see what we have planned for the rest of the year becuase i really wanna find out alot of the stuff i dont know and what i want to know. So i am pretty pumped about that, and working with the mpx teachers and also with all the students. We all know eachother pretty well so there really should not be very many problems this year in terms of group working. During my rwanda entires i really feel like i have a good understanding of what hapened. Reading the stories from the killers and survivors was hard through. To think the person your lisetining to could of killed up to 20 people. Or the surviors who actually could of been a killer too. There is still so many questions i have though. I dont see how so many people paticapated in this genocide. I think it was becuase the fact that the media got invovled and just keep makeing it worse and worse. And the hutus just wanted to kill every tutsi in the whole country. The hard part about learining about something like this is because we never know whats actually there, we dont know what 100% happened. That would definatley be amazing to be able to commuincate with someone who was there and probbaly a survivor. Because they had to have a statgery to be able to survive. When we all get are questions answered i think that will be the best part, and i can tell people all about what happened in rwanda and why did it happen. Bceause that would really shock my parents and grandparents that i am learining so much stuff. We are still only 2 weeks in through so we will probbaly be going over rwanda for 2 to 3 more weeks which is a good thing. The fact that were doing this and not learining this in a history textbook is a really cool thing. Were the ones who have to find all the facts and find out all the research which is really nice because thats how we learn the most and actaully keep it in are head rather than just forgetting it after you take a test.
My first week in mpx was really good. I like the way we learn without having to sit there and read a textbook all day. The Field-trip helped me get a better understanding of how we get our products to Hawaii. I told my parents everything I learned and they were very interested in what I had to say. They think mpx will really help me out this year and I think it will too. I hope by the end of this year I come out smarter and learn more about different things.When we were at matson i relzied how surprised i was to see the ships that bring are products. Also when we went to the E waste. I dont really know how they have such a set schedule for those ships where they come in days all the way from california. A question i still have is how do they get that much oil into the boat? I mean that boat needs thousands of gallons to be able to move so i am wondering how they then get that in the boat. At ewaste the tour we got was good, it was a plus being able to go in where the men work the crain to make the trash smaller and smaller. After we came is one for mpx and did an activty with all mpx students. I think it was so we all came aware of how good we have it and so bad so many people have it all around the world.Hearing the numbers was no surprise but thinking about them was different. The percent of the people who go to bed hungry was over 20%, i think that could be the easyiest problem for us to fix in the world. As long as other country has enough food to be affordable and safe we would never have that problem. Im really likeing the way that mpx is helping my writing. It feals good doing so many writing and project templates is a big help to me as a student. I hop that we get to do mpore feildtrips becuase that really helps you undrstand something way more than just going on goggle and looking at random facts. I hope that we will start doing these projects becuase i have so many ideas on what i want to write about. I want to do a project about lake erie becuase i go there every year and i want to do some things like why does the water get so dirty after rain? How do the waves start from no wind? How are fish living in the dirty shallow water?
