About the Activity

For this project I had to create a legal code for 30 people who were stranded on an island. We had to create a system and code for the people on the island to make sure that everyone was in order. We got to chose what type of system we wanted for example a dictatorship or a democratic system. Then had to create jobs, punishments, and laws that the people had to follow. Once we made this code we compared it to other codes like the Hammurabi code to find that similarities and differences.

Goal Going Forward

I can get ideas when I use my five senses to explore or when I pursue my interests.

I think this is an area i tend to struggle with because i find it a bit hard to explore and find ideas using my five senses. I also find it a bit difficult doing thing with a creative perspective and lean more towards critical thinking. I am slowly working towards this goal by trying to find new ideas creatively and pursing areas of my interest. I am working on this goal because i want to widen my perspective on new ideas and just exploring these ideas.
