This last month we have made our most head way with our project. We have assembled a team to hunt with us. We have found a weapon to kill ghost and have tested it successfully. Also we have obtained a way to contact the dead. We have yet to test that tool out though this week we are planning on going for our first real ghost hunt. We will post the video to our web pages when done.
In this last month we have made progress in finding a way to kill a ghost. We have purchased sword capable of vanquishing a ghost by using a ritual we have taken from the internet. We have experimented with this spell and are still trying to perfect our technique.
Describe the most useful resource you have found to help you develop your Genius Hour Project?The most useful resource I have used is the internet. I can use the internet to go on to Netflix.com and watch The Office. The internet allows me to find what other people are saying about episodes of the show. Without the internet I couldn't go on Weebly and blog for my genius hour. Without the internet I would have to either rent or purchase seasons of the show. That would require spending money not only on the material but gas as well. It would also consume time by having to drive to the store. With internet its right at my fingertips whenever I want. Be honest. How could you use your Genius Hour time more effectively?A way I could use my Genius Hour time more effectively is not bringing in things like a poll to do before I start working on my project. I only get this hour of class time every week to work on my project so I should utilize every minute. Working on other things should only be done when I can't work on Genius Hour.
Another way I could use my Genius Hour time more effectively is by having less to answer at the beginning of class every Friday. I only get an hour and I have to write four paragraphs before I even start. I'm the kind of person who over thinks things and ends up rewriting and spending up to twenty minutes on something like this. That leaves me less time to work on Genius Hour. In this episode corporate send a representative to go over diversity in the office. At first Micheal loves the idea but later he finds out that the only reason they even had the meeting was because of things Micheal had said to other co-workers. Micheal decides to have his own meeting and once again shows that he isn't afraid to take things out of hand when he begins to speak to an Indian employee in a very racist way. Throughout the episode Jim is trying to renew a client but at the end of the day he finds out that Dwight had stolen them from him. Jim shows his integrity when he gives Dwight his celebratory champagne. Jim also shows his feelings for Pam when she falls asleep on his shoulder and still says he had a good day. 7/10
The first thing I would do is hire professional web designers to make me a far greater website to blog on. It would be interactive with cool things like games and music players. People who don't even like my blog would visit my site just because of how spectacular it is.
With the unlimited time I would watch my selected show from the first episode to the last. I would have enough time to write a review for every episode. Once I would finish the series I could watch another and review that. I could easily watch as many different shows as I wanted and write reviews for them. To start the first season of The Office the show opens up with no real indication that you're watching what is supposed to be a documentary of a modern day office for a company that sells paper. The episode strongly focuses on Michael Scott, the branch manager of the office. Early in the episode you see that he is a very quirky and childish man who approaches things with very immature behavior. Later in the episode Michael demonstrates he isn't afraid to take things too far when he pretends to fire the receptionist, Pam. She calls him a jerk and storms out of the room. I would rate this episode 7/10.
What excites you most about your Genius Hour Project?I'm very excited to do something of my choosing in an English assignment. Prior to Genius Hour I've never really had my own say in a project or assignment. All other classes have us do SSR, and its basically read a book and write about it. This is the opportunity to do more. What concerns you most about your Genius Hour Project?What concerns me most about my Genius Hour Project is finding appropriate responses to the television show from others on the web. There are so many people who voice their opinion over the internet through more vulgar and less thought out ways. What Progress have you made so far with your project?I have made no progress so far. I assume that today is the day we start our Genius Hour Projects and will be beginning to watch my show and write reviews today.
