Conclusion

Overall I had a good year and I had fun. I was able to meet new people and gain new experiences. I was challenged and I was able to show that I could push through it and work to get it done.

My goals are to do more than what I did this year. To do more community or service projects, to join more clubs, and meet new people. This will allow me to challenge myself in time management and I feel that it will give me practice when I go up to college. I would also like to do more better in my academics so that I may be able to join the NHS this time. I feel that I should take up more challenges because the reason why I get lazy is when I get bored. I should do more work and help out more in my class activities. I would also like to take on a part time job that will get me the experience I need to do well in the career I'm pursuing.

GLO #6 Examples

Class of 2013 blog
Being an effective and ethical user of technology is a big thing in being in MeneMac. My examples of being an effective and ethical user of technology is our blog. Our blog has been a big help to me and my groups. With the assignments we put up and the essays that we post, we are able to keep track of our group's individual work and make sure that we're all on the same topic. Being an effective user of technology means that I would use this to my advantage to keep track of my work and use it for my teacher to help me in my work and help me do better in her class. For example, when we had to do the risky business, our group had multiple- different topics. The blog helped me keep track of what my members were saying and use it to my advantage where I wouldn't be doing the same or similar type of topic or doing a completely different and out of topic essay.




Another example for me being an effective and ethical user of technology is when we were doing our Exploravision websites. We had to create jpg images of how we would want our website to look like. To do this I had to use photoshop to created the websites and show what I visualize in my mind. I had to use what I knew from photoshop to help me create the images and make them all related to each other and make it related to our topic. I also had to use photoshop to create what we would want our technology to look like.

GLO #6 : Effective and Ethical User of Technology
= The ability to use a variety of technologies effectively and ethically



This GLO is about being able to use technology in effective ways that would benefit me in my learning and in my studies. It is being able to use technology to enhance my learning strategies and help me get ahead and help me to produce quality work. Being an effective and ethical user of technology not only means using the technology to enhance my learning but using technology in positive ways, not in ways that could hurt and affect others. As a Menemac-er this is a most commonly practiced GLO for all of us.

GLO #5 Examples


As a member of Menemac, we are expected to work together in a lot of group projects. To work in a group project, members would need to all communicate with each other and know what they're supposed to do and what they need to do. This means that we each need to find ways to communicate with each other. One project I've worked on was my Physics music video, most of my group members were busy and pre-occupied with other projects with other classes. So we had to find a way to talk each other since not all of us had access to a phone. We first began on facebook, we had a discussion on there and then we moved to video chatting, where we were all able to talk to each other and make up a time when we can all meet and work on our project together. At the end, we came up with a good quality music video.


Class of 2013 blog
In MeneMac, another way for us to communicate is through our class blog. In our class blog we post up our essays, our assignments, and our answers to questions that were posted. From there, our teacher can view it and the rest of our classmates can view it and make commentaries on it. Our blog is an effective way of communicating because our group members are able to see what we post and our teacher is able to see what we post. We communicate through our posts and comments and we are able to help each other out in that way.

GLO #5

GLO #5 : Effective Communicator
= The ability to communicate effectively


This GLO is about being able to communicate with others effectively. It means finding ways to get in touch with other people in order to get what you need from them. It's about being able to talk to others without creating problems or being able to talk to other to solve problems. Effective communicator means that you are willing to take the time to talk to the people you need to talk and are willing to be polite about it. An effective communicator talks to others to work out problems. This GLO does not only have to do with talking but communicating in different ways such as technology.

GLO #4 Examples

Movies and Hollywood MV
This GLO is about recognizing and producing quality work. This year I made various videos and I had various types of projects. As part of the Menemac core, I am expected to produce quality work. Throughout this year, even through it was difficult and I had many complications, I feel as if my music video for US history on the roaring 20s was an example of a quality work. The lighting, the effects, and the camera work were good and exquisite. Mostly the editing was done well, the story flows and there are no missing footage or footage that is out of place. I have good transitions and the video overall flows smoothly.



KKK & others documentary
Another example of quality work for me was the documentary we made for US history. The documentary was on the history during the civil rights. We had to do a segment on the KKK. It was the first kind of documentary I had made and I feel as if it was exemplary work for something that I was new to. Our interview wasn't clear at first so I had to tweak around and soon enough, it became understandable. The thing that I believe put it over the top was the voiceovers that I had created. The voiceover helped the clips flow from one to another and helped the questions and information flow from one to another.

GLO #4

GLO #4 : Quality Producer
= The ability to recognize and produce quality performance and quality products


This GLO is about being able to take what I learn and creating products that meet or exceeds the standard. It means that I can look at other people's work and be able to recognize if it is a quality product or not. Not only does it mean that I can tell what quality work is but I also can produce work that are considered to be of good quality.
