Week 3 of the Infinite project has came and this how I finished the beginning of the day. Today, I was trying to find out how do you animate your project in basic ways, like rotating, flipping and create transition. However, I didn't discover something new because the tutorials of how to use after effects which is a website I'm using to animate my projects, was too difficult and Mr.Frank, the IT technician gone missing. To solve this problem, I think I need to email Mr.Frank and find out his schedule because you can't just waiting for him? You need to get some work done!!! Therefore, while he is away, I will plan what kind of videos should I download to create my trailer. Lets plan, find experts and get some independent success story going for our future!!!

Week 2 has been over for the infinite project and there are lots of I have accomplished so far and what I need to keep on improving on. This was about this week.
In this week, I was trying to finish the script to film my documentary and upload various types of filming apps and learn about it. Also, perhaps film something if I had time. However, things didn't go all according plan. What went well is that I wrote my script and edited it to make it the best script ever to create my documentary. However, things that didn't well was that I didn't ask experts to support me in the beginning of the week, so even though, I did upload a high quality app to film my documentary, I didn't got to try out. Next week, I can improve by if there are any trouble working on my project, ask an expert right way to support my filming techniques and etc. For conclusion, I think I should keep a balance of independent resolution and dependent resolution. Today, I will say it was okay because I used half of my time to write a weebly math blog and the script to prepare for my documentary. The rest of the time, I checked for resources I can use to create my documentary. However, I didn't got to research how am I going to create my own resources like animate an animation for the Olympic symbol to pop up on the screen with interesting motions. In my weekly plan, it says that I am going to earn resources from somebody else and create a resource for my own to film my documentary, but so far, I have not done it. Therefore, next time, I'm going to learn how you create various animations which can be informal and interesting as well. I hope I can do this independently really well.
Last week, wasn't that progressive because I only watched you tube videos about short track and didn't wrote the script which is one of the most relevant things I need to film my documentary. This time, I'm sure it would be different. I will first finish off the script at home because there are other things now, I need to do and I would be able to safe some time to do other things like math blogs or film trailers.
For this week, I will learn how to use filming apps including i Movie to film a good documentary of mine with Mr.Frank. This time, I can surely accomplish this because I got an expert who can now lead me to do some works done. Furthermore, this could be a new chance to experience more creativity among trying different ways to film using different apps. For conclusion, I hope for this week, it would be really, really different. For this week, I think it wasn't that good as I expected because I my script to film my documentary should be finished by now, but since I was just watching short track in YouTube and thinking what video should I use to create my documentary, I completely forgot what's my number one priority. Now, I need to write my script at home. Great...
I can improve from this by keep telling myself what needs to be done first and what needs to be done next over again until I'm finished with my relevant stuffs. I hope I can do it better next week. In February 28th 2018, me and my parents did a student led conference to understand how autonomy, mastery, purpose impacts motivation. It was fun expressing ourselves to our parents and let them experience the story of my life as a studio 5 student because they can enjoy wht does it feel like to be motivated. These are the things that happened in the conference. 1. My parents expressed their passion in iMovie.
2. My parents solved the ping pong math problem and the olympic math as well. 3. My parents had a debate with me of saying can robots conquer humans. What Went Well During the Conference What went well in the conference is that my mom participated in various activities patiently and effectively because I didn't saw her look at her handphone even once and it felt like she was right into it. What Questions did my Parents have after the Confrence After the conference, my parents had a question of how does motivation impacts children to learn because for them, even if they get a new job, something they never tried before, it doesn't feel right for them, but for us if we inquire through new things, we will be interested to it and learn about it to become what we want to be. I think motivation impacts children to learn more than an adult because as an adult, you willl have more serious responsibilities than a child. Therefore, they will have less chances to experience what they're interestedin due to having worries of how are going to earn money and survive. What Feedbacks did you get from your Parents As the conference about to finish, I gave my parents a sheet of paper to give me some feedback of how can I improve. My parents wrote two stars and one wishes of how did the conference go in that piece of paper. Star: I am inquire through new discoveries Star: I was active when doing activities during the conference. Wish: My Parents wish I was more serious I think I can improve on what my parents wished by understanding the rules of different assemblies or celebrations and control my behavior depending on how relevant it is. What did you want your Parents to See I wanted to let my parents experience what does it feels like to be interested, determined to something because my parents had never experienced doing what they really want to do due of being busy everyday and going to a company or doing house works which is exhausting and not part of motivation. How can my Parents help me on my Next Unit My parents can help me by asking an expert they know outside of school because in the last unit, I struggled and struggled to create a documentary not because I didn't know what to do. It's because I didn't have an expert who had lots of experiences to lead me to success. Therefore, I want somebody with lots of experiences teach me lots of new ways that I can improve. How can my Parents help me to Improve My parents can help me to improve by planning what creative things I can add in my documentary because they lived in Korea for 10 years, so I know they have the knowledge, the experience to help me put all of them in action into one piece. For the conclusion, I hope this conference can lead me to a great start of my unit. Studio 5 is all about moving forward towards your motivation. You need to understand and demonstrate autonomy, mastery and purpose to create success and hinges through motivation. For infinite weeks, we studio 5 students will be working on a project called the infinite week project to take relevant actions to achieve our goals.
My goal is to learn how to develop South Korea at all costs such as economy, technology, government, and etc so that I have organizations of ideas when I'm old enough to take responsibilities of my own. I have chose to take action for this goal because many powerful countries such as the USA are making orders to show their power. Therefore, South Korean citizens as well as the government would be threatened to lose their politics to an another country who is joining the Korean Conflict. However, if we grow our power, many countries joining the conflict wouldn’t make fun of us and we would be peaceful after all. How will I do this project? Well, since I learned a lot from the 6 weeks project, I'm going to use that knowledge to open workshops and teach about Korea to other people. The workshop's topic would be history, technology, economy, government and etc about South Korea. I chose this as my topic for my workshop because it can help me express myself to others that my soul and my heart is all connected to these subjects. I think it would be easy to teach using slides in my workshop so, I must add a new folder in google drive and add google slide files about teaching others during my workshop. Also, during 6 week project, I didn't document my learning that well so, I for got every amazing things I have done during that unit. Therefore, I will document my learning this time on weebly to look forward to the fast and embrace the chaos. There will be lots of skills I need to work on as well. For math, I will need to work on data handling information that I have earned because if I use an unorganized information for my workshop, audiences would mess up and won't understand what I'm saying. Also, I need to work on literacy skills because I need to work as a community with the audiences in order for them to understand question and have a new thought to what I'm saying. I hope this unit is far more fantastic than the last unit. Infinite project is coming up and we need to do something during the weekends to make this project the best progress you can make. What I can do is first, email Mr.Frank because in the 6 week project, I struggled to find new experts who can help me, so this time, I really can use some help.
Also, just in case, I should watch some documentaries and record some facts in my note book to use it for my piece of film. Furthermore, I can upload filming apps such as i Movie because if I'm so interested in this that I do this at school, I think I should definitely do it as home as well. I hope next week, I will have some accomplishments. The Winter Olympics!!! One of the celebrations which you never want to miss has came here at last in Pyeongchang, South Korea. In this Olympic, you might discover extraordinary things which you have never experienced during the last few Olympics. One of these things include one of the most interested winter sports for South Korea, Short Track Speed Skating. Lets find out what is this sport and how did it influenced South Korea. What is Short Track Speed Skating This is the short track ice arena in South Korea. All the entertaining races took place here. However, all of this can't work with a specific goal or else the celebration might turn into chaos. The racing track of the arena is 111.12 m long and depending on how much distance you need to race for, you need to do a lap up to 5, 12, 27... times. Unlike normal speed skating, in short track, the ranking is more relevant than the time you cross the finish line. What kind of Matches are there in Short Track In short track, the matches separate into 2 different groups. The men's and the women's match. Then, for each gender, it will separate into 4 different games. These include the 500m, 1,000m, 1,500m for both genders, 3,000m relay for only women, and the 5,000m relay for only men. To win the games, you need to advance through the tryouts, quarterfinals, semifinals and depending on your ranking in the semifinal, you will be decided to advance through the final A or the final B. If you want to win a medal, you should probably advance to the final A because that's where you get the highest percentage to win a medal. Rules of Short Track Every matches will have its own specific rules. Even though, you have a certain goal for the game without the rules, once again, the game will turn out to be chaos. These rules include keeping the race safe and fair the most important part, have fun!!! Off Track Off track is a skill which is used by players to take the lead from the outside due to the inside lane blocked by other players. When using this skill, there is a slightly chance that your hands might invade other player's lane, so you need to be careful not to interrupt them while racing. Assistance Assistance is a skill used in a relay to assist their team players to let them take their turn to do a lap. You can use this skill to protect your lane from other players give your team player some more speed. However, while giving assistance, you need to be aware of not blocking the players from the race by showing impediment or accidentally tripped while impeding. If you fall off just before your teammates are ready to take the assistance the teammates can touch any part of your body to get the assistance. Penalty A penalty is a specific punishment which is given to players when they do something that can hurt other players while racing. You can get a penalty when you do bad hand movements to other players, invade other player's lane or do a false start. If you get a penalty, that means you can't continue that specific game anymore until it's over in a celebration like the Olympics. False Start False start is an irregular start when a player starts the race without the shooting gun which represents starting the game. If you have one false start at the beginning, you will have one more chance. The person who did the false start in the 2nd start, with no mercy, will get a penalty. Impeding An impeding is a hand movement which is used in short track to cause impediment to other players. If the impeding might be able to hurt other players or affect their race poorly, they will get a penalty. Currently, the ISU are watching over impeding movements and gave lots of penalties to other people during the Olympics just because they little bit touched other player's hands. History of Short Track Speed Skating(South Korea) The long awaited journey begins during the short track world championship held in Japan in 1983, when Korean men and women players faced off against many opponents from different countries the first time. As soon as the championship finished, in 1985, the South Korea National Short Track Team was formed. At this period, special constructions were being held to train players efficiently and turn them into something far more superior then what they think of. Because of this construction, in 1990, the national team of South Korea turned to be one of the world's best short track team in just short periods of time. Since then, the team kept on trying their best to improve until now, they're having huge interests to win 7 gold in the Olympics. World Record Holders Currently, the South Korean national short track team have a world record of 6/11 games. That means South Korea set the world record around half of the games already in a short period of time. That is impressive because for them to have high scores, they need to train a lot, but it is hard to do so. Therefore, we can say that South Korea is the emperor of the short track universe. These are the current world record holders today for South Korea.
Conclusion For conclusion, I hope you have watched the Olympics with joy and encouraged the short track national team of South Korea. |
