Ryan's Portfolio

I chose to do my model in this format because I think it shows my learning more easily, and the audience can understand it more genuinely. The way of monopoly can show the information, and the overall meaning I was trying to show.

One thing I did well:

Showing the information using the special way of monopoly.

One thing I still need to work on:

In my visual model, I should’ve added color and added more details inside each column. Additionally, the four main countries I chose were not precise because, instead of Portugal, I wrote America, which wasn’t that powerful at that age.

To get to the essay stage, I first went on different website the teacher suggested for the article. However, I can’t really find articles about my research topic, so I went on Google to search for the topic and use the websites under the to see if there are useful articles. Then, using this method, I finished finding all three articles and printed them out. After that, I organized the information I got from the articles for the essay. Therefore, using this information from the graphic organizer, I finished the essay.

One thing I did well on my essay:

I have finished writing them, and my claims are all correct to the meeting standard.

One thing I still need to learn to do:

I still need to work on my evidence and reasoning, because for the evidence part, I forgot to do the citations, and my sentence starters were not precise.

In the RC Cars unit, the teacher first lets us assemble the cars on our own, following the tutor, and then we will measure the size of the car to create a 3D model of whatever part we want. For example, I chose the upper part of the car. After you 3D printed out, you will have to attach it to your car and test if it works or not. When attaching, you have to be careful and make sure it’s not interrupting other parts of the car.

In this unit, we learned how to create a clock with decorations assigned by the client. From the start of the project, the teacher(DT) first taught us how to make a clock base with different circles on Inkscape. Then, we will go ask or send an email to the client for the theme they want the clock to be designed about. After they reply to you, the teacher(DT) will let us draw down our 6 designs, and pick the one the client would like the most by asking them. When they finish picking the design, you will start to design it on Inkscape and laser cut it out. Lastly, you will spray paint the clock to make it look better when delivered to the client.

Vocabulary:

Proportional Relationship, Ratio, Constant of Proportionality, Unit Rate, Proportional, Non-proportional, Variable, Equation, Graph, Axis, Ordered pair, Reciprocal.

Relationship Table:

Example(Proportional):

5:2 , 10:4, 30:12, 2.5:1

The table is proportional because it can be multiplied or divided by 1/2.

Constant of Proportionality:

5:2 , 10:4, 30:12, 2.5:1

Using the same example, the number that can be multiplied to get the next pair of numbers the the CoP(Constant of Proportionality)

Using Equations:

The CoP can be written in an equation as y=1/2x.

Two Types of Relationships:

Two types of relationships are where you use a table, where there might be multiple CoPs.

Using Graph:

A proportional graph is usually straight, and a graph usually comes with an equation form of answer. Where you identify the bullet points and find the proportional relationship between the bullet points, or there might just be one, and that will probably be the answer.

Questions:

U: What do you understand in this unit?

A: How to identify and solve a proportional relationship question.

N: What new information did you learn in this unit?

A: How to use the equation form to represent the CoP (y=kx)

I: What was interesting in this unit?

A: The lemonade stamp, because you get to drink a lemonade you made yourself.

T: What was tricky for you in this unit?

A: To understand why this is the answer to the questions at the beginning of the unit.

Why have a digital portfolio at SAS?

Creating a portfolio, or blog is a great way to collect all the work you’ve done throughout your academic career. You can include academic, athletic, and personal artifacts or experiences that you want to share with a wider audience. This is a great way to organize all your learning in one place and you can take it with you when you leave SAS.  When you make your portfolio, you create posts that are categorized according to your subject. Some categories have already been set up for you, but if you need more categories you can add them as needed. It’s important that your posts have the following:

• An engaging title – this should not include the name of the subject since this is referenced in the category. Think of this as the first opportunity to engage and hook your reader!
• Body – this is where you share your learning. This should include a combination of text and media in the form of images, graphics, and embedded videos. You should always consider how your post looks to your audience. Is it engaging and organized? Do they want to keep reading?
• Category – select one that has been set for you or add a new category. Posts can have more than one category e.g. Humanities and Myself as a Learner
• Tags – create tags that can be used as keywords to describe your post. Tags help organize your post a little more! Aim to have 3-5 tags for each post. For example, if you are posting about a novel you wrote, you might want the following tags: #Fiction, #MurderMystery, #Theme, #PlotDiagram
