ISTE Standards Standard 6 I choose standard 6 which is Creative Communicator . Standard 6 is split in 4 parts which makes it more detailed. Standard 6 is about how students communicate and express himself creatively using a variety of platforms , tools , styles , formats and digital media. I thought I might be using this standard in my project because we're doing “battle of the movies”. For my project i'm going to try to use a couple of differents apps to display and share my information. Also i'll try to be creative and make it interesting using my knowledge in technology. So I think this is one of the standards I'll be using gin my project. 6a : Students choose the appropriate platforms and tools for meeting the desired objectives of their creation or communication. I think for this part of the standard we will use blogger to write our blog posts in. we will write a blog post for each movie. 6b : Students create original works or responsibly repurpose...

1) The ted talk I watched is called "The danger of Silence" by Clint Smith . It's basically about how the danger of keeping yourself silent can hurt you or hurt others. What this means is that there are situations where something wrong happens in front of us but we don't say or do anything about it because we're too busy focusing on ourselves. For example: the guy used an example saying that once he was walking down a road and he found a homeless guy but he didn't care about him because he was too busy on his phone , so then he felt bad for doing it and he realised it was wrong.

I also realised this is something that is actually happening but we don't really pay attention to. Clint Smith seemed passionate about his topic because he used some personal experiences. He also seemed very co...

What are my thoughts on this project ? I still don't know what I want to choose for my project. It will most likely be something on my hobbies or something I really enjoy doing. I really want to do something that will make me excited for it and keep me working at all time.         Photo credit:: Valerie Everett  What are my questions about this class ?  I don't really have any questions for this class but I'm still a bit confused on what we're really supposed to do. I understand that we have to choose a project that will " make us come alive " but I don't really know what to choose. Otherwise I feel that this class will be great. What am I excited about ? I'm excited for this class soo much because we have more freedom then we normally do in other classes. Normally in other classes we always have to do what the teachers tell us and we don't really have a choice. I'm excited for being able to choose my own topic an...

  This 14 year old girl from Myanmar volunteered to fight in the army. Her job was being a messenger. So basically she had to deliver messages to people, during the war this 14 year old girl was killed. so what should really happened to her.  first of all , I 'don't think a 14 year old girl should be allowed or accepted to fight in a war. This is way to dangerous. 

In art class we learned about an artist called Janet Fish. Janet is a  contemporary American Realist artist. She was born on May 18, 1939. She paints still life  paintings with reflective surfaces. She went to Yale University , Smith Collage and got graduated in  Philadelphia .  In class we had to look at a a couple of bottles and draw them. I learned a couple of different things from this activity. One of the things that I learned was how to shade. I learned that you start from using dark colours and slowly get lighter. I also learned how to draw a bottle in front of another. At the begging of the lesson I didn't know how to draw a bottle but now I do!  After all I was happy with my drawing but not a lot. I think I needed more time to work on it. If I have to share one thing from my experience from this would be colouring in the bottles. I really like how we get to colour it in because we...
