THE TASK
THE TASK PRESENTED TO US BY MS. RENEE WAS THAT WE HAD TO CREATE A NATURE JOURNAL IN AN INFOGRAPHIC MANNER. IT HAD CERTAIN CRITERIA TO BE FULFILLED AND THE MAIN INFORMATION WAS BROUGHT IN FROM THE 2007 DOCUMENTARY CALLED " THE EARTH" . IT WAS A REALLY FASCINATING DOCUMENTARY TO WATCH AND I INDEED GOT ALL THE NECESSARY INFORMATION TO CONTINUE WITH THE ASSIGNMENT.
WE HAD TO DO
A FRONT PAGE,
AN INTRODUCTION FOLLOWING WITH
2 FLORA
2 FAUNA
2 NATURAL SETTINGS,
2 NATURAL PHENOMENA
AN ENVIROMENTAL ISSUE
REFLECTION
AND OUR FAVOURITE SCENE
FROM THE DOCUMENTARY. ALL THIS HAD TO BE TAKEN FROM THE DOCUMENTARY BUT WE ALSO HAD TO DO SOME EXTRA RESEARCH TOWARDS THE INFORMATION TO GAIN AN IN-DEPTH KNOWLEDGE.
the project brief
PROGRESS
I STARTED OFF WITH PLANNING THE DAYS AND ESTIMATION OF TIME TO THIS PROJECT. THIS WAS DONE TO FIT MY TIME I DID TWO PAGES A DAY WHICH EVENTUALLY TURNED OUT TO BE EFFICIENT AND NOT TIME-CONSUMING. STABILIZING MY TIME FOR DOING THE ASSIGNMENT AND HAVING ENOUGH REST.
OUR PROGRESS WAS CHECKED BY MS.RENEE OUR TUTOR DURING THE TUTORIAL SESSIONS BY UPLOADING IT ON THE PADLET PLATFORM. THIS WAY WE CAN ALSO CHECK IF WE ARE ON TRACK WITH OUR OTHER CLASSMATES.
REFLECTION (USING TGC)
FROM THIS ASSIGNMENT MY DICIPLINE IN SPECIFIC KNOWLEDGE IS IMPROVED BECAUSE I HAD TO FIND AND DO FURTHER RESEARCH ABOUT FACTS THAT I HAVE NEVER KNEW. THIS WAY I REALLY LEARNED A LOT OF NEW INFORMATION THROUGH THE ASSIGNMENT.
IN THIS ASSIGNMENT I HAVE LEARNED TO THINK MORE ON HOW TO CONVERT MOST OF THE FACTS INTO INFOGRAPHIC FORMS AND I FEEL THAT THIS HAS IMPROVED MY WAY OF THINKING AND HOW WE CAN ACTUALLY FIT A LOT OF INFORMATION IN A PAPER.
REFLECTION
IN TOTAL, FROM THIS ASSIGNMENT I HAVE GAINED SO MANY DIFFERENT DRAWING TECHNIQUES WHICH I RESEARCHED AND LEARNED FROM THE LECTURES. THIS ASSIGNMENT LEAD ME TO LEARN MORE IN-DETAIL ABOUT MANY TYPES OF SPECIES WHICH I HAD NEVER KNOWN AND THIS HAS ENCOURAGED ME TO LOVE NATURE A LITTLE MORE SINCE IT'S BEAUTY HAS TO BE PRESERVED AND WE ARE THE ONES WHO CAN DO IT.
