Project Reflection: Post on your Blog


Project Title: Moral Courage Website
Class: Humanities
Date:3-14-08

Purpose

The purpose of this project was to learn about moral courage and learn about a subject that involves moral courage. In order to learn about that subject we had to take down notes and include sources. We also had to learn to not plagiarize so we don't get disqualified from the contest and to not get an F.

What I learned
I learned how to not plagiarize and to site sources on easybib. I learned how to work on flash when I absolutely have no experience on flash. I learned how to stay on task but I still need improvement on staying on task. I also learned how to think fast because people usually waste their time looking it up on the Internet.

REFLECTION

I enjoyed this project because my friends were in my group and I didn't goof off as much as i use to. I feel like I could have done better because I spent most of my time researching because I didn't know anything about that subject my group gave me.



ARTIFACTS
You should have at least one artifact from each project on your DP. What document, picture, or link will you have for this project?

I have all the flash and tables I made.

Title: Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment

While Angel, Nudge, and Fang were flying to the "School" back at home the Gasman and Iggy were not happy. The Gasman and Iggy were very angry. They were mostly angry at the "Erasers" for stealing Angel and for making Max leave them behind to save Angel. So they thought of dangerous and mischievous plans for the "Erasers". The Gasman and Iggy thought that the "Erasers" had made a camp nearby they're house. They flew around and saw the "Erasers" camp in the forest. So they created a huge bomb that they called Big Boy. The traps were set up and the Gasman and Iggy went to sleep and see what damage and destruction they caused. They woke up and their traps had not been set off yet. As they were looking at their traps they found a hummer coming up from the horizon. The Gasman was very excited as he saw that the hummer was going straight to their oil trap. The hummer went on the oil and violently spun around until the hummer went airborne. Then it landed upside down. The Gasman cheered while Iggy was asking him questions of what happened. The gasman descriped and he saw that the "Erasers" had survived. Then the Gasman and Iggy stared to fly away and flew to their secret clubhouse deep in the forest. They were just sitting there waiting for the "Erasers" to leave. They heard a sound and thought it was just a small animal. Until they heard a deep and deadly voice telling them to come out. Then one "Eraser" jumped in from the window. Iggy had planted the Big Boy and started the timer. The "Erasers" didn't know that it was a bomb. Iggy yelled out the signal and they both flew straight up. The "Eraser" grabbed the Gasmans leg while Iggy was flying away unaware that the Gasman was caught. The Gasman wiggled and kicked his way out of the "Erasers" grip. Then as the Gasman was flying closer to Iggy the Big Boy blew up and their secret clubhouse blew up. The Gasman cheered and even though Iggy couldn't see, he had an evil smile of happiness on his face.
While Max, Nudge, and Fang were flying to the "School" Max got sidetracked because she saw a girl in trouble while she was flying. She flew down there to help out. There were 4 boys picking on the little girl while Max came out of nowhere and started to beat up the 4 boys. Then one took out his gun and started to aim at Max. Max demanded the girl to run away where she will be safe. Max started to run away into a nearby forest. Her mutant powers gave her the ability to give her more distance away from her and the 13 year old boys with guns. She heard the gun fire and a nearby tree got shot. 2 or 3 more shots came and one actually hit sam in the shoulder. She tripped and fell into a bush where she waitied in the shadows waiting for the boys to pass her. She found a cabin where the girl she saved was living in. She got her mom to heal her wounds and her mom had found Maxs wing. Max suddenly knew what Fang would have said if he found out. Also if Max let Fang find out, she is in huge trouble.

Title: Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment

Response:
What happened so far is that the "Erasers" has kidnapped Angel(the 6 year old kid with the "mutant" powers) Max was really close to getting back Angel but her old friend named Ari who was eleven has been turned to an "Eraser" Max had a chance of getting Angel but Ari had a gun and it was pointed right at Max's face. So Max had the choice of not letting go and let her face get pelted by bullets or let go and have another chance of chasing them. Wisely she let go and flew home. She was thinking of a plan of how to get back Angel. So they left but left behind the Gasman and Iggy. They did have good reasons of leaving them behind. 1 is that the Gasman is too young. 2 is that Iggy is blind and 3 is just in case Angel had escaped the "Erasers" and fled back home. Now Max, Nudge, and Fang are off flying to the place they hated the most, "School" The "School" couldn't even be placed in a better location, Death Valley. Right next to Badwater Basin. But back at home is not that boring. Iggy and Gasman are protesting of why they didn't get to go. Gasman was upset because he got left behind and wasn't even able to save his own sister. Iggy was upset because he was just a couple months younger than Max and he thought that he can handle on his own just because he's blind. At the "School" the "whitecoats" ( whitecoats are the people that Max and the others called when they were still back at the "School" Angel could read minds, so she can hear what the "whitecoats" were thinking. She heard one even say, "Oh, yes! Man, when I section her brain..." The "whitecoats" were making her run on a treadmill for hours and to analyze her heart and respiratory rate. Whenever she stops running she get zapped multiple times with a tazer.

Thats all for know, and Im pretty sure i spelt tazer wrong.
