MC Website Project Reflection

Name: Timothy Zaragoza


Project Reflection:



Project Title: MC Website project

Class: BD Dates: ________________________________

*You may type directly in this document and copy and paste into blog, or simply address each of the following in a post. It should be approx. 2 pages worth of writing.

PURPOSE: In this section, explain what you were supposed to learn and what you were supposed to do.


Sentence Starters

  • The purpose of this project was to learn about

  • In order to learn about _________________, we had to create/perform/ write/etc…








The purpose of this project was to learn about moral courage and make an educational site using team work. We explored how to use Dream Weaver and became more useful using technology also we learned about copy rights, that taught how to not plagiaries, plagiarism is to copy some else's work and calling it your own. Also we had to focus this project on moral courage, first we were going to make a site about music but we did history instead and actually I think we would have gotten a bad grade if we kept going with music.


WHAT I LEARNED

In this section, tell what information or skills you learned or improved.

Sentence Starters

  • I learned about

  • I explored the concepts/topics of …

  • In this project, I learned how to…. (skills)









I learned about how to make links that can work because I used to not know how to make links on my DP. Also we learned how to make proper bibliography on easy bib .com. This project helped learn team work because in the beginning of this project we didn't cooperate together, and we didn't get the amount of work we needed to get done. Then in January we got our act together and we did the amount of work we needed. In the end we got a good grade also the the best about this project that I learned was that Dream Weaver is one of the hardest things to work with.


REFLECTION

In this section, reflect on your experience. Did you like the project? Why or why not? How did you do? What would you do differently next time?


Sentence Starters

  • I enjoyed this project because…

  • I feel like I could have done better on this project because…

  • Next time, I would…









I enjoyed this project because we got to experiment with dream weaver which was pretty cool because I thought that it was only for our DP's. Also we got to enter in a competition between other sites that are uploaded on think quest. Next time I would use our class time more wisely because we kind of put every thing on our site together at the last minute. The thing I liked the most in this project is that it got me to a qualifying grade for me.


ARTIFACTS

You should have at least one artifact from each project on your DP. What document, picture, or link will you have for this project?


This is my website: file: /////k2/homes/My%20DP/Internet%20Stuff/index.htm

So Darren and harkart finally meet some they know and evenna tells them that they have to get gletinious globes under from a moster frog. They found that frog after hiking a while it was protected by alligators in the swamp so they made a plan they traveled around the swamp until they found a part that didn't have alligotors they found a spt that was perfect because it was behind the monster frog. So darren uses his enhanced vampire speed to get the globes but the frog nearly killed him with its huge long tounge Darren managed to get 4 while harkart got 8. They bolted out of the swamp and to evenna who was just being amused how they managed to get the gletinious globes. Evenna lead for weeks through another desert but it was easier traveling with a witch since she made the fired and gethered the food and finally sh lead to a big ocean and darren was getting week since he needed human blood because he was a vampire.

He asks if he could drink from evenna but she said no because her blood would kill him but she said if you cross this ocean you will find some humans. so they made a raft from a broken boat that was on shore. They caught and ate fish swimming near the raft, they drank the water also which evenna said that wasn't dangerous so they were trying to find out what evenna meant about getting some holy vile and temple of grotesque. Then one night while they were floating on a raft they heard beating of large wings, they immedeatly woke up, the tried to think what that noise was harkart said it sounded familiar and darren thought it could be a very large bird. The next night they woke up and heard that noise again and this time there was something in the sky and harkart immedeatly remembered what it was, he remembered it was a dragon!

The plan they made up was that they would capture a pair of monkeys, make a pit that has stakes in it and lure the tiger in and hopefully it would die. Darren was in charge of making the stakes and harkart had to catch the monkeys. He made a net and put coconuts and other wierd fruits in a spot he would throw the net over. Later a pair of monkeys came over to get the fruit and they were fighting over it so harkart threw the net and caught them, harkart dragged them and threw them into the pit of stakes darren made. tey were slowly dieing and enought time for the jaguar could come. They were waiting hour that day and finally it came it was to smart to just jump in the pit, so darren went to attack, the jaguar was pushed over to the edged and it took darren with it. so what harkart did was jump on the jaguar and it did take the jaguar down to the stakes but even the jauguar couldn't brake harkarts fall, he got wounded on his lefty leg and his right arm was torn by one of the stakes. When darren saw that he was hurt because it reminded him how Mr. Crepsley died by jumping in the pit of stakes also.

So darren helped harkart to get out of the pit, and he sewed harkart's right arm back on. They took the enormous jaguar out of the pit and looked all over the jaguars body and they found nothing. Then darren checked it's teeth and they found letters on 7 of its teeth,the letters were K, H, A, R, T, K, A, T. They didn't know what it meant but they also found a map on the stomach of the jaguar so they carved out the map and followed it. While after walking for a week they finally made it out of the jungle and they were in the desert again. Then they traveled into a swamp, where thewy were surprised to find Evenna and they were really glad to finally meet someone int his wierd world.
