EVALUATION
My learning can help my community by me teaching that community what i have learned. This means that whatever i learn i can teach that to other people living in my community. By teaching, i can help others in my community learn more things that i have learned. Fur thermore, my community will be more knowledgeable about what kids in schools are learing everyday.
My future projects can become better by me planning more. Most of the time, i do the projects like the night before it is due. Also, only if parts of the project are due at different times, then ill take my time. Other than that, i really do the majority of my projects at the last minute. My future projects can improve by me planning out my time more and not depending on the teacher to tell me or remind me when the project is due. I can plan out my time more and also do better on other projects. By doing better on my projects, my grade will get better and i will be a better student.
i have learned that i am a procrastinater. This means that i wait last minute to do everything and anything. This is bad i know that for sure, but i can't help it. I have also learned that i am very creative when i want to be. I can bring up new ideas when i feel like it. I will continue to be a procrastinater because i can't help but be one. I will not continue talking to michel during work. Even thpugh she starts the conversation, i will not talk if i can help but talk to her. I will also not talk to samuel in computers class and art. I will also talk to Eblihm because she helps me and honestly is smart. This will help me later on by me knowing who to talk to and who not to talk to for the right reasons.
I feel very good about my final product because i know i put my time and effort into it. I got distracted while creating it but i got the project done. I feel that i can get a good grade and that sixth graders will understand the design cycle more clearly and will be able to teach it to others in order to serve THIER community. In the Investigate stage i would rate myself a 3 because i did all the work and i also did all the research i needed but unfortunetly when i continued farther into the project, i has to re-do a section of that stage and start all over again. Since i feel that i didn't do enough research, i feel i shoudn't get that high of a score and also that i should look more carefully at some research. On the plan part i feel i should get a 3 because i made my gant chart and i planned out how i wanted to finish my project but i didn't follow the chart exactly as planned. In the create stage, however, i feel i deserve a 4 because in the create stage i took my time creating my videos. I also tried to do it the best i can so that a sixth grader can understand the information given in the video and also that the can teach it to others. In the Evaluate stage, i feel i deserve a 3 because i got the three sixth graders i needed to get and also that i got my results from the survey website that i got to see if my creation wa valid or not. I was able to evaluate myself too by seeing how i think i did in the video and how well i thought the sixth graders can understand the videos.
There are many things that i think i would like to change. In regards to planning, i think i would like to honestly follow the plan i make and make sure i get my project done on time. I would also like to change that i would honestly stay on task while i am doing certyain parts of the project and do what i'm supposed to do. In reards to the execution of my plan, i feel that i would change my tool that i used for my project. An example would be that i first started using Smilebox for my movie, but it turned out that instead it would more for a picture type of video so i learned not to use that unless i want to make i small movie with pictures. Also, i would change by not using the Dvolver tool again. I had to restart my video a couple of times before i got to publish it, but it took forever to finish it. Also, i wouldn't use it because it wouldn't save my video, so if i didn't finish and weanted to continue, then i would have to start all over again. I now know that those two tools won't be apart of any future projects that i would need when making a video.

Reflection
TODAY I GOT TO SURVEY A SIXTH GRADER FOR MY FIRST VIDEO. AT FIRST DURING CLASS THERE WERE SEVENTH GRADERS BUT I DIDN'T WANT TO TEST THEM BECAUSE THEY ALREADY WENT TO ALOT OF PEOPLE AND THEY ALREADY KNEW ALL ABOUT THE DESIGN CYCLE. ALSO, I DIDN'T WANT TO BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID THAT THEY ALREADY KNEW ABOUT THE DESIGN CYCLE BEFORE THEY CAME INTO THE CLASS. NOW I JUST NEED TWO MORE SIXTH GRADERS TO TEST AND I WILL BE FINISHED WITH THE EVALUATE SECTION OF MY PROJECT. :)

REflection
I rate myself a 4. What i did in class was that i finished editing my second design. It was on Domo Animate and i got to send it to Ms.hinojosa. I also got to try to finish my video and the create section of my project. I also need to do my reflection for the sixth graders. I also need to borrow some sixth graders from the elective classes to see if my video was successful or not. I still need to complete my evaluate stage. i got a lot of work to do.
