Final Reflection

Aaron L — Wed, 20 Jun 2012 16:13:18 +0000

I think that this year was a good trial run for things to come in this class. The whole year didn’t really flow as smoothly as it probably would have if we had stayed with the old style of teaching. But I’m not complaining at all. Im glad i was able to be a part of something like TAG and AMP. I think that TAG has a lot of potential but it really didn’t prosper as much as it should have this year. A lot of people just kinda brushed it off and didn’t really put any effort into being a part of it. I hate to say it but I was one of those kids that just didn’t put a lot of effort into making TAG work. I just followed the rules and did what I was supposed to. I never thought outside the box and really tried to make anything great. It wasn’t until AMP that I decided to actually put an effort into the class. It was like an awakening for me. To be able to do what ever I wanted? Who could pass that up! I took advantage of the time I was given and really experimented with new tools and ideas I had. I spent a little time finding videos on how to make create what was in my head. I ended up with a couple cool looking pictures (1) (2) with a sic-fi laser added. I guess what I’m trying to say is that I wish I had taken this class more serious than I did for most of the year.

Week 32

When I first started this class I wanted to know how to do everything right away. Through the Code of Honor I that everything takes time and that if I wanted to know something bad enough I could do it.

23 Weeks of Progress

During amp I have been able to get better at cropping and making overlays on pictures. I have also spent a little time in Garageband but that is no where near being ready to publish.

My AMP work

I have created all of these pictures with the time i have used during AMP. If AMP is continued I want hone my filter and overlay skills with trial and error.All royalties for pictures are available upon request.

I am a part of autonomy

I think that the idea of autonomy in class is a great way to get the best out of kids. I can’t wait to see what I can come up with.
