Digital tech 2021 - project

 In digital technology we were assigned to put our imaginations to work and choose what we wanted to do until the end of the year, my group and I decided to create an app that could help people with clothing online.

This is a slide that explains what we are making and what we're making it on:

(also has some clothing options)

- We have all of our clothing on a spreadsheet which would make it easy for people to access it

PERSONAL REFLECTION -

I personally think that it'd work with teamwork and not falling out with other people in the group, also explaining ideas to others in the group would've helped too. I've learnt about different types of coding during digital technology and this project.

Forensics 2021

In forensics we were assigned to make a mini crime scene with our own ideas, we had to use dolls as people that are the victim in the situation. We were supposed to describe the scene, how they died, when they died, and write up an autopsy report of the victim which helps them figure out how they died. We also wrote up who discovered the body and when they found them. 

This is what I came up with:

Footprint Analysis

Footprint Analysis

Footprint analysis is used in forensic science, when found as evidence they test the footprint and they find out all types of different useful stuff involving solving a crime, they can test the footprint for DNA about the person who left it there, if its a shoe print they can test it to see things such as, what type of shoe it is, what size shoe, how tall someone is, the time it got there. Footprints are really useful during an investigation as it helps you find a bunch of evidence, making forensic scientists' jobs really easy. You can measure the footprint by length and width, etc.

Discovery 2 project

In health, we had to choose a topic that we can find 6 BIG questions for it then we answer the questions as detailed as we can. Everything we found out and wrote down is in the slide below.

The topic we chose to write about is drug addiction, we focused on one type of addiction which is Opiates, and explained why opiate is the most addictive.

Lawyer Paragraph

 Humanities paragraph - Lawyer paragraph

Article 1: All human beings are born free and equal in dignity + rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.

Martha: Martha is treated like a slave by her parents, she has been taught to respect The Righteous because her family is a part of the religious cult. She also was raised to treat Jim/Abomination like a prisoner and she was separated from her sister which she loved and respected. Her mother and father have taken away her personal freedom, she has basic human rights but she is treated unfairly. Quote from Martha: “No friends because I’m righteous” and/or “If I can’t have friends around, I can’t have friends.” - Pg13. This proves that Martha has been affected by the way her mother and father have raised her, making her believe that she can't have any friends and this has had a very bad effect on her social wellbeing. This makes the audience feel sympathetic for Martha and what she has lived through. The author did this to add excitement and emotion to the story, and to Martha and Scott's growth of their friendship.

Breach of HR Article interact:

• Breach means to not have followed it, or have broken it.

Article 1: All human beings are born free and equal in dignity + rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.

- You cannot be born into slavery, and no one is born differently. Everyone's the same. You have access to basic human rights, water, food, shelter.

• Martha, born into a religious cult, has basic human rights but no personal freedom. Martha is treated like a slave by her parents.

• Abomination/Jim, born and kept in a cage not allowed outside, has basic human rights, lost rights to education, love, freedom, socialization, clothing.

Why the author did this to Jim: Good storytelling, builds suspense & tension, feels sorry for Jim, angry at parents, shows relative influence of bullying.

Quotes:

• No friends because I’m righteous - I know I seem weird to them but it's not me, inside I'm just like them Pg.18

• Not allowed radio - The righteous believe the Devil reaches young people through pop music. Pg.11

• Kid in the basement - Abomination? It's a boy Scott a little boy. He lives in the cellar in a cage Pg.143

• Mother says they're raised in the dark like heathens.

• Jim doesn't see his mum - And she lets her kid live in a cage?...she doesn't know. Pg.146

Main story idea: This makes us feel empathy, depressed, sympathy for Martha. We forgive Martha for keeping the secret about Jim because she is suffering.

Martha went to live with her sister, she got new clothes, not treated like a slave.

Abomination, reunited with his mum, gets clothes, proper shelter, basic human rights. Trauma - not gonna have a normal life.

Gloriavale questions

1. How did Gloridale affect David's outlook on life?

Gloriadale poisoned David's mind, convinced him that specific things were bad, convinced him that if he did anything wrong he'd go to hell, filled his life with abuse and trauma, and blocked him away from society. When he left he was so full of rage, he hid a knife under his pillow once for "protection" as Gloriadale terrorized him, he didn't know a life without abuse, which made him believe that the real-life outside of Gloriadale was like that too.

2. Does the documentary fairly represent life in Gloriadale?

His explanation does fairly represent what his side of life was like in Gloriadale, he briefly explains how life in Gloriadale as a woman is but explains how he lived in Gloriadale, how men have to live, what men are taught in Gloriadale.
