Introduction:
During summer break I used my phone
the traditional way, calling friends and family, I used it for texting too and
I used it for taking lots of pictures of course and I also used my phone for
social medias like, Twitter, Snap chat, etc.
I also used it for researching many things and accessing my email. I used it to play games on my phone and for
other sources of entertainment like YouTube and watching lots of TV shows, I
even used it for reading books and listening to music.
The learner profiles that I used
last year were,
Reflective: When we had to do
reflections in class and look back on everything in the end of the year.
Principled: When I was honest about
everything and didn't plagiarize.
Open minded: When I shared my ideas
with my group.
Risk taker: When I had to step out
of my comfort zone and had to work with people that my teacher told me to even
if we weren't friends.
Thinker: When I couldn't research
and had to use my prior knowledge.
Caring: When I had to help my
friends with things they weren't sure about.
and a few more.

Reflection of
the lesson:
Today the teacher split us up into
groups of 2 and asked us to order the steps of the design cycle and put them on
a poster, it was difficult because it was a huge group and it got a bit messy
at times. Jasmine, Maanya, Francesca and I cut all the papers, some of the boys
organised them, although we all helped, then the teacher announced that we only
have about 2 minutes left so we all cooperated and stuck them in the order so
that we can finish in time.

Reflection of
Tinkercad:
Today we had to make a tinkercad
account and do atleast 4 lessons, I managed to do 5, the pictures of them are
below. I even did the glasses but it got deleted so I didnt have a picture. The
glasses were the hardest ones in my opinion, the rest were very easy and took
very little time where as the glasses took such a long time.
This one was very very easy, it taught me how to shrink and enlarg shapes, it took only a minute probably because it was so easy and there were only 3 steps.
This one was a bit confusing at first becasue i didnt understand what we had to do but it was still easy this one took me about 3 minutes because i found it hard to understand what i had to do in the beggining.

Design
Specification 1:
The UAE Nurses Association claims
that one of the most difficult parts of their job is dealing with small
children who have a fear of needles.
Although the association has some tips and tricks like putting numbing
cream to partially freeze the surface of the skin before injecting medicine,
sometimes the anxiety levels of small children are so high that it is difficult
to get them to hold still. If only there
was an easier way to administer medicine within the syringe.
Design
Specification 2:
The water is always on the road in
springs and meadows because of people washing their car and the neighbors are
getting very annoyed since theyre flooding up their area too, it is creating a mess, ruining the roads, it could be dangerous and also could ruin plants in that area. So using tinkercad im going to create the area where people fill up the roads with water (Meadows and Springs), Then im going to put a car and show someone thats washing their car on the road. Im also going to go around my community and ask people who live there if they get annoyed when people wash their car next to the road, if most of the people say yes then i would create this, if not many people do then i probably will change my idea.
Design Brief: Water on the roads
Im designing a picture of water on the roads, Ill show the trees and house then on the other side ill show the water flooding. This is aimed at residents of the meadows and springs or any other community that has the same issue. It probably will be used around the streets of meadows and springs and the landlord would send it out by email to all residents. It will incude houses, trees, water on the ground, a car and a catch phrase.
