Reflection

“Was I able to identify how the geography impacts the town/city with ease? How was I able to find how the physical geography in these areas?

Identifying the geographical impact on Steinbach was pretty easy as the notes given to us in class helped solve a lot of what we’d need to do as research. Finding the geographical impact was also made easier through the notes given in class. Basically Mr. Wilkinson did the hard parts for us.

“How did technology personally affect my learning? What were the pros and cons of using Map.hub?”

Map hub was very easy to use, at first when we were doing this project I thought we’d have to make maps of the city or town that we did but draw them digitally, which I am terrible at doing fine lines with a mouse or even a mouse pad on a laptop. Map.hub is simple because it takes layouts similar to google maps and allows you to add points of interests. I guess the only con that I really had was that when it asks you if you want to delete something you can delete a whole marker. This definitely didn’t happen when I was trying to get rid of a sentence.

“How would you refine your assignments in the future?”

Definitely picking a more interesting city. When you pick a town that’s just surrounded by dry fields and flatlands, it gets pretty uninteresting. Luckily though Steinbach wasn’t too boring and I was able to make a decent map. Another way I could refine something similar to this would probably be adding more information on certain markers, maybe even add more markers.

“Were you satisfied with the result of you design and solutions?”

I’m definitely proud of my map. I learned about a city that I will probably never visit in my life, but it’s cool to see how different land can be when we’re only 2,000 KM away from each other. I believe my marker on Steinbach in 25 years will either be close or completely off target.
