!We currently wrapped up the 8th week of school (woo)! This week we had one text given to us (Seminar included) and we also spent a lot of time to work on our project. Immanuel Kant Article: This week we had a text on Imannuel Kant. I found it extremely interesting, which helped with my performance in the Socratic seminar and such. We had 40 pages and we were required to have reading logs for 20 pages. Reading a text that long in one week was difficult and it made our seminars really long. Project: This work our project time was sort of cut shorter this week due to other class work. On Monday we had to present what we had for the first week of projects. On Thursday, we had to present our prototype end product to Matt. It was difficult to get things done this week due to other things we had, and there was some confusion within our group on whether or not our idea should push through. We are currently working on our documentary. Two interview are scheduled tomorrow during lunch. We have a lot of footage from a race and from Mike teaching, now we are working in sections. Sammie - Currently interviewing people, writing specific questions for interview Annika - Writing a score, helping film and interview, editing documentary prototype Andrew - Scheduling, in charge of contacting interview people, interviewing as well Successes this week: I feel that I had a good seminar this week, and I believe that the text this week was the most interesting text that we've been given. Or at least for me it was. I feel like I was able to contribute to the seminar a lot more this time since I was more interested in the text. I felt more confident when I spoke [p=-[p Difficulties this week: Our project group had a hard times getting done this week. It was hard getting interviews done and it was hard scheduling things with other people. Last weekend we doubted our ideas and wondered if our Mike documentary was really good to do for the project. We had to expand our project to HTH Teachers making a difference in our community, whilst playing sports and stuff. So we figured that out, but still interviews were difficult and some were pushed back. It was also hard doing project work at the same time as class work (article annotating, reading log, etc). One of my group members couldn't do project work because they had unfinished class work to do, the class work was limiting our project work time. Goals for next week:
