Weekly Work Log

This week we have been working very hard, mostly to prepare for our power point presentation. On Tuesday we watched presentations and then added pictures & graphs to our own power point to make sure we would have a good presentation. Then on Thursday, since we knew we would be presenting the next day we designated roles to present and also practiced our presentations. After our presentation on Friday, we worked on our tri-fold outline as well as worked on our movie and last finishing touches to it. Most of what we did this week was group work so thats what we all did and we were their to support each other especially for preparing for our power point. The day before it we must have called each other each at least 5 times with questions and whatnot. In the upcoming week we will work on just wrapping up our project and the last finishing touches to make sure it is prepared and ready for exhibition.

Weekly Work Log

This week our group completed a lot of work for our project. The weekend prior, we actually went to a canyon clean up and restoration. There, we took lots of pictures and videos for our documentary. We also picked up trash and removed invasive plants. As well, we interviewed the park ranger who was in charge of the canyon.
During the week, we got more footage of the bay and picked up some trash there. On Wednesday, we went to a different canyon and planted trees and shrubs as well as removed some weeds. My partners and me also worked on creating our PowerPoint for our science presentation and created the quiz.

This week our group really moved forward with our project. Personally, I worked on writing the articles for our website which is almost complete but we still need pictures and videos, which I will be working on next week. As well, our group set up a volunteer date for tomorrow (Saturday) at a canyon clean up event. This relates to our project because it is restoring natural San Diego plant life & environment. I also contacted a lady named Tershia who we will be working with to plant trees around San Diego. Yesterday, I worked on completed our Scientific Presentation Outline.
This week, Maya worked on making a Tri-fold outline. Priscilla worked on learning how to use flash.

Weekly Work Log

This weekend I have accomplished a lot for our project. First, I created a website template for a website that my partners and I will be working on to display everything we know and have researched. I made 3 pages for the website, "what is deforestation", "what can you do to help deforestation?" and a "pictures/videos" page. I then spent the week writing text to fill these pages. This also involved more in depth research on the topic of deforestation. I also went and purchased two 3 ft. Ficus trees, which we will be planting next week. It won't make a big difference on plant-life in San Diego, but every little thing helps and hopefully it will influence more action. We met with Spencer and also tried to resolve some ongoing group issues.
What Maya did this week was work on the science outline. Our presentation will be done on the subject of Co2 and Carbon Dioxide and how that relates to trees and helping the world.

Weekly Work Log

This week my partners and I have worked hard to pursue our personal duties for our project, as well as group obligations such as to get trees. On Tuesday, I was sick and at home but I managed to finish the outline for our documentary script which involved the narration and what kind of images we would need. Then on Wednesday we met with Spencer and each got our respective assignments. The rest of the day I spent finding pictures for our documentary, which was my personal assignment. I also helped Priscilla look for numbers to call the city for tree donations. Maya worked on creating our powerpoint on the science aspect, and Priscilla called different people for tree donations. On Thursday we all headed over to the Walter Anderson Nursery, however we found out the bus doesn't go down a street that we needed to use to get to the nursery. So on Friday, Priscilla and I went back to the nursery at lunch and asked questions about which trees would be best to use, the size of them, the cost, etc. We also asked the manager about donations and he referred us to a lady named Karen Thatcher who we can contact about donations. The rest of the day we spent working on our assignments.
