BLOG 1 - Monday 29/11/10 ﻿  Today was the first day of our Transition Week & we got to know what we will be doing the whole week & then we got into groups of three. In my group I have three people; Maggie Dib, Yammie Sarkis, & myself, Jessica Athniel. Once we got settled into our groups, the teachers explained that we will be presenting a video about success at the end of the week & will be going through different processes throughout the whole week. We then started of with Challenge 1 which was to create a box that will keep our marbles (mula) in it & it had to have a lid that fits perfect. Then we went on to Challenge 2 which was creating a Wiki space for all the members of the group, creating a team name, a logo, coming up with a chant & putting a picture of our team onto a page. For our next challenge we had to look at Module 1 of All My Own Work which was Scholarship Practices & Principles & then we did a quiz based on that. My team got ten out of twenty which gave us 20 points. We then finished off with Challenge 4 which was writing & planning all our ideas of what our video would be about. Once we went home, we then had to complete Challenge 5 which was to collect three different videos of different techniques.

<span style="color: #eb2ea0; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 190%;">BLOG 2 - Tuesday 30/11/10 <span style="color: #eb2ea0; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 140%;">Today in the morning our group was separated and moved into different areas of the school, only having Myself (Yammie) and Jessica at school we could only go to two areas. Jessica attended iMovie whilst I attended the research group. In the research group we set up equipment in the DTC 3 room and got shown how we can narrow down looking up information on the internet. We learnt this by clicking either timeline or wonder wheel. Another website was Boolify. This was a great experience for it helped us find what we needed to. Jessica attended the iMovie group. In this group it showed her how she can use iMovie & Jessica claimed that its easy to use and it a great resource as it will produce ourselves a good movie for the end result. After this, we went on with Module 2 which was Acknowledging Sources. We had to read about it & then do a cloze passage on it. After recess we started on our task which was making a Webspiration. We had to create a mind map on product & process after we came up with our final idea which was a masterchef show. Jessica then had to leave early & i was left by myself to complete Module 3. We had to read a website about Plagiarism & then create a poem up about it. I completed this task successfully & posted it on our Wikispace.

<span style="color: #2174e6; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 170%;">BLOG 3 - Wednesday 1/12/10 <span style="color: #2174e6; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 160%;">Yammie: <span style="color: #2174e6; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 170%;">Today in the morning we were split up into our groups. After this we got stuck into our work. Mrs Daniels taught us how to use two new websites which were Citation machine and BibMe. These websites are used for writing up bibliographies. After that we moved on to Module 4 which was copyright. We had to read three different sheets about it & then write down our notes on an A3 sheet. After this we each wrote one question & swapped our questions with another group so we could answer. We successfully answered them all right & recieved more points for our box. We then had 2 periods to complete our projects. We all went into the computer rooms and began to write up our scripts and materials for tomorrow. <span style="color: #8107ed; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 170%;">Jessica: Today in period one i moved to the iMovie group. In this period we learned how to import videos and add subtitles and headings as well as adding sound & our own music. In the next two periods we had a chance to work on our projects and we thought of doing master chef. This filming will take place in the food technology rooms tomorrow periods 3, 5 and 6. This was a good and educational day. <span style="color: #ff0059; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 170%;">Maggie: Period one today started off with me going to the computer rooms to learn about photoshop. This being my first lesson i had to catch up and learn what every one else did yesterday. Today we learnt how to crop images and re-size them. The next two periods were the best because we had to plan out what we were doing tomorrow. We all decided to do master chef and in our video were featuring Matt Preston (Joseph Semaan), George Calombaris (George Fajloun) and Gary Mehigan (Andrew B) we are going to be filming in the food technology labs.

<span style="color: #7100ff; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 190%;">BLOG 4 - Thursday 2/12/10 <span style="color: #7100ff; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 150%;">In today's lesson we started off again into our three different work stations. Yammie went to research, Jessica went to iMovie & I, Maggie, went to the photoshop. I learnt how to edit photos & manipulate them as well as cropping them & adding different things to it. Once we all got back into our groups, we went onto Module 5 which was AMOW Wokring With Others. We had to read these three different sheets on working together & then we had to answer a couple of questions about it. After this we paired up with another group, JAYELLE, & we got chosen to act out Collaborative Learning. We got a couple of points for this & then after recess we planned out what we will be doing for periods 5 & 6 because the room we need was taken by a class. After lunch we filmed our movie & tomorrow we will be editing on iMovie for periods 2+3 & 4 & then we will present it.

 * <span style="color: #0058ff; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 140%;">Put a minus (-) sign to remove the results of the wrong word eg. if you are looking at the fish, mullet & don't want the hairstyle to come up type mullet - hair

It narrows down your search by creating a mind map & once you click one of the subtitles in the mind map more options are there to choose from. It makes it easier to search for your specific idea. <span style="color: #00ff50; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 160%;">Time Line <span style="color: #00ff50; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 130%;">The time line is also found on the left hand side of google once you type something in. When you click it, a timeline will appear & it is divided up into different times & when you click each box, information for that period is displayed. For each period, a list of websites to help your search easier will appear under the timeline in relation to that period of the year. <span style="color: #00b0ff; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 160%;">Boolify <span style="color: #00b0ff; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 130%;">Boolify is a search engine targeted towards young children. It allows you to build a puzzle with information that you either need or don't need which makes it fun & simple for kids to use. It has options such as; AND, NOT, OR etc. <span style="color: #00b0ff; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 130%;">﻿  <span style="color: #00ff50; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 130%; line-height: 0px; overflow: hidden;">﻿  <span style="color: #00ff50; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 130%; line-height: 0px; overflow: hidden;">﻿  <span style="color: #ff4500; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 170%; line-height: 0px; overflow: hidden;">AMOW - Module 2  <span style="color: #ff4f00; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 170%;">Acknowledging Sources - Close Passage

Plagiarism was the wrong choice and I know I should have not of copied Joyce. Knowing what I did was wrong I knew I shouldn't have copied that stupid song I came back from a party that night, and knowing I had school in a few hours gave me a fright. All I can hear is the voice of Mr Callan telling me I should have done my own ballad I obviously didn't know at the time but its to late I've already done the crime. Now I'm sitting with a warning in my hand this is no way what i had planned I come home and tell the story to mum, great ! Now she thinks I'm dumb Not even going to bother with dad cause everything with him ends really bad.

 * <span style="color: #13c940; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 140%;">The reason I have put Identify as the easiest is because it only has two steps which are recognise & name.
 * <span style="color: #13c940; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 140%;">The reason I have put Explain as number 12 is because it has more steps to complete & you have to write more for it.
 * <span style="color: #13c940; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 140%;">The reason I have put Examine as number 19 & towards the end of the list is because it requires you to get more into your writing & inquire into it.
 * <span style="color: #13c940; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 140%;">The reason i have put Critically (analyse/evaluate) at the end of the list is because it is the most hardest. Its more like writing out an evaluation where you have to reflect, question & understand etc.
