I got better at photography – I do amature photogrophy outside of school and wanted to get better at wildlife photograhy so I took a camera while walking around some of the parks in VIctoria over the long weekend. I managed to find a couple of birds like herons, so I decided to get close with a 200mm lens and get some pictures. I was pretty happy with the end results.
I got a B in Social Studies – Social studies was one of my favoutire classes in semester one, mainly because of the WW2 unit. I enjoyed learning about the war and getting to make a digital scrapbook of significant changes to Canada.
I got full marks for my cabinet project – In Drafting Design 11 this semester I was taksed with creating a 3D model of a cabinet, either or my own design or from a pictrue, in Fusion360. After that, we had to show the different views and dimnesions in AutoCAD. I had a fairly large cabinet but I was able to dimension everything correctly and the final product looked good and I got a good mark for it.
AREAS TO IMPROVE:
GOAL
ACTION PLAN: For next year
Do better on tests
Study more before the test date and maybe in the block before
Hand in morework on time
Begin projects earlier and make plans for the project to devide up the work over time.
One project that I found to be a bit difficult was the cabinet assignment. I was tasked with creating a 3D design of a cabinet in Fusion360, and then making drawings with dimensions in AutoCAD. It can sometimes be difficult to create plans for a 3D object, and communicate the dimensions of that object well. I had no problem with the 3D design, except for getting all the components to work. The hardest part for me was making the dimensions in AutoCAD. While drawing the cabinet in 2D had a few difficulties like making everything scale correctly and lineup, the dimensions was the most difficult part because I had to make sure I didn’t over-dimension. In the end, I was able to place all the correct dimensions and communicate what the cabinet is going to look like.
I can analyze evidence from different perspectives. (THINKING)
I can usually make my ideas work within the constraints of a given form, problem, and materials if I keep playing with them. (THINKING)
I can present information in a way that is clear and organized. (COMMUNICATING)
