Me!
I am a 12 year old girl who is in grade 6. I chose to make this portfolio because I want my relatives to see what kind of work i have been doing in school even if they are overseas. Also, when i leave to go to a different school, i can still look back at what i have done. I learned a few thing in IT. First of all i learned how to create an iMovie, i also learned that writing reflections after a project helps you understand it more. I also learned how to use the technology design cycle.

iMovie
Throughout the quarter, we have been making an iMovie about what kind of things made us happy, but before we could start the actual making of the movie, we had to brainstorm on things that make my happy. After doing this, we researched on what pictures we were probably going to use for the iMovie. That was the investigate part of the iMovie, then we went on to the plan. This was making the storyboard. the storyboard includes the picture you will use and the effects, the audio, the duration and all the other details. Finally we got to start making the actual iMovie, this part took the longest to finish. Later we had a friend review our iMovie and make comment. We edited our movie and we were done!

Collaborative Wikispace
Throughout this quarter, we have had a collaborative wikispace with children in New Zealand. We communicated through skype and made introduction pages of ourselves. We learned about the environment there and about the hobbies and interests of the other children. Together we brainstormed ideas of what we might put in our iMovies. We basically made friends with them and we helped each other with our work.
