How did you conduct your inquiry process?
I conducted my inquiry process by doing an extensive amount of research and interviewing fellow students.
Who did you talk to during your inquiry process?
I mainly talked to my peers since the interviews I conducted was a huge part of my project.
Mark: 3/3
How did you apply principles of design to create a visual presentation of your learning?
In the Google Slides subtitles, I used a more dreamy style background as it reflects the unreal nature of stereotypes. I also centered most of the text, made sure all the lines were around the same length, skipped lines/slides at natural speech breaks, and adjusted the contrast so the text can be seen easily.
Did you add your project to your G9IP page on your edublog? Where you able to embed your media onto your page?
Yes, I embedded my project onto my G9IP page, but I left the Google Slides presentation as a link because when I convert Google Slides to Powerpoint, the formatting messes up and gets shifted. It is not possible embed a Slides presentation.
Mark: 3/3
How did you connect with your group using social networking tools? Why that platform?
Our group chose to use email for communication because it is the least distracting to everyone (it simply isn’t possible to procrastinate on any email page) and there isn’t another social media platform we all use. I also personally try to limit my number of social media accounts to a minimum because it gets in the way of my studies.
How did your group decide on the medium for presentation?
I decided to do an audio recording because I found that videos get distracting, and I really want my audience to focus on my content instead of my visuals since the topic I chose was quite serious. I did end up creating a Google Slides file for subtitles because I was told that I speak too fast for those whose mother tongue isn’t English.
Mark: 3/3
What strategies did you use for effective group-work? How did you hold each other accountable?
Our group completely fell apart and we all created separate projects. This was mainly due to lack of communication.
Mark: 0/3
Did you cite your sources? What format did you use?
I cited my sources in the APA format (see above)
How did you know your sources were “good”? What makes a “good” source?
Good sources are reliable sources. Most websites ending with a .org, .ca, or .edu are good sources, and university papers are also significantly more accurate than random articles on the internet, including the news.
Did you use multiple sources to verify your information?
Yes. As seen in my citations, I used many sources to verify my information, and the data I collected from interviews also reflected the same results.
