renaissance Reflection
posted 2 years agoI think that overall I met the expectations that I set except for building the armored car. I think that we didn’t finish the armored car because David kept on fooling around and he didn’t do much. I think that I met the two class expectations because the two expectations were editing and reference evaluation because I checked in with rob after I wrote my paragraph, I also checked in with David. For the reference checking what did is I poked around on the web-sites, I also looked at the F.A.Q’s , and double checked the info.
I learned a lo about the renaissance, I learned about the transportation during the renaissance I also learned a lot about the inventions and about da Vinci
I believe that I learned about time management because at the beginning of the project it seemed like we were going to have more than enough time to finish the project but when the due date was close I thought that we weren’t going to finish.
I would like to improve in my building skills because the armored car that we made wasn’t the best car. I also think that I could always improve in my writing skills. I think that even though I could improve on this I think that I improved on my writing skills.
For my research I actually only used the internet. I was going to use a book but I wasn’t able to get my hands on a copy.
Like I said earlier I double checked my sources, Although I think that I could have done a better job with the bibliography, I forgot to keep a record of all the web-sites that I went to.
I think that although me and David got some laughs but that over all David was really hard to work with this is because he would get distracted with everything, he got distracted with legos, clay, rocks, etc.
I think that I became the leader, I believe that if I David had become the leader then it would have been more of a playtime rather than work time.
I always tried to push David and in the end I think that we still didn’t make a similar contribution, I think that even thought David did some work I did most of the work.
I don’t think that I will ever make a project like this again because I think that this project was a total disappointment to me. I think that the model of the armored car wasn’t even close to the real thing.
If I could do the same project but change something that something would be the model that we made I think that I already expressed enough how I feel about that model (David even put a huge exhaust pipe on the back of the car)
I think that I might make a project that is similar to the one that i did last time with te catapult.
