Debate infographic/Reflection

 

I picked this topic, because as this is a topic that I feel decently strongly about, I knew it would be very easy to argue either side. I feel much more strongly that weed should be legal, so thi smade the choice fairly easy for me. The only concern I had was that there might not be enough research on my side. This wasn’t much of a problem though.

It actually wasn’t very hard to only research one side, as I felt very strongly about my side. I feel like if it was a topic that I was in the middle of, it would be hard to shut out the other side. Also, I feel like my side would have been the easier of the two sides to find information and statistics on.

I made my infographic brief and easy to read over loding it with tons and tons of statictics/information. I feel like this style is more captivating and makes it hader for people to tune it out. I made it green, as that is obviously the color of weed. I used icons from piktochart, as it was very hard to add pictures from the internet. 

I believe my infographic should be successful in convince my classmates, as it is short and to the point, while still containing enough information.

Poster Board Project

  Poster Board Project Out of all of the many demographics that make up U of D, the starkest is one no one ever thinks about: the average academy student vs an honors senior. Without doing any prior research on the topic, I believe it is fair to say that most academy kids either hate reading, or at the very least do little to none of it in their free time. The question that is being begged is why? To get to the bottom of this mystery of the academy’s dislike of reading, it is imperative to know why they aren’t very fond of it. This requires interviewing them, to pick their brain on what specific things draw them away from reading. I will ask them four quick questions: their name, their grade, if they like reading, and if no why not. The plan would be to interview at least 10 of them, as their answers will definitely repeat multiple times. Voice recording would be preferable, but if not allowed then writing down would also work.  After the academy’s brain is picked, it is t...

Ted Talk Reflection

  William McConico 12/18/23 2nd Hour Ted Talk Reflection What I Knew I knew going into this topic that listening is a skill, and that muscle memory is how we as humans get better at the various tasks that we do. In knowing this, I believed that these two things would be fairly simple to connect back to the overall idea of repetition. While brainstorming, I also thought of the relationship aspect of repetition, and knew that I had a topic that I could talk about for a while. Why I Selected This Topic I selected this topic as repetition, and more importantly the listening and memory parts, are things that I struggle with and have been struggling with greatly for most of my life. I believed that if I did research on it and did a presentation on a topic that is pretty close to  my heart, I could not only better the audience, but also myself. I also selected this topic as I wanted to talk about the story with my sister, and I wanted to talk about fighting games. It is a weird conne...

Literacy Project:Reading

  ​The Project- I chose to do a poster project, as I felt as though it would be the easiest way to reach the academy students in an impactful way, in order to be able to convince them to read. As previously stated, the purpose of my project was to figure out the core reasons why some academy students don’t read, and to show them that by reading more and taking more challenging English classes, that they will not only improve their reading skills but maybe even like it as well.  The Poster- I choose to have the format of the poster be three small posters on one big poster, with silver borders on the big poster board. I choose this format, to make it easy to read, easy to read just one at a time, easy to show the different problems, and more meat than me just writing on the poster board myself. Each small poster started with the academy kid’s reason for not liking reading in big bold letters, and then an A.P. English students explaining how accelerated reading has helped the...
