1) what have i contributed to the group project?
- I've gave ideas and suggestion and tried to make dead line
2) what would i do differently next time? Why?
I will try not to do my work last minute. I'll do extra research that will benefit the group
3) What have i learnt about working together?
I've learnt that it's not about what you think, but also what other people think. Working together can be hard, but in the end we had fun and co-operate nicely.
4) What has been good/challenging about working as part of a group?
Meeting datelines is the most challenging one we had. We had no problem listening to each other, but meeting datelines was hard. Sometimes it was hard to make people do their work fully so we had to keep reminding each other.
What have i learnt?
1) I've learnt more about my teammates, and their speciality and what they are skilled at. And when i'm sick, i dont think i can contribute as much as I did before i was sick. And sometimes we went off topic, but we got back in the end. I've also learnt that some people wouldn't finish off their work on time, and it held us back a little.
a) Deciding and planning the project was considered ok. We co-operate on what's going to happen next and so on. But sometimes deciding can be hard and planning can be out of hands, but we manage to do it anyway.
b)planning and producing- Datelines was hard
c) reading and presenting my ideas- We took turn to present/ say our ideas out.
d) time management- dateline was hard to keep and getting people to finish off work at a certain date is hard. Some people did not meet the datelines and it pulled us back alittle.
3) I gave some ideas that might help the group, did alittle bit more extra research.
4) What are the most valuable points i have learnt? why? - I've learnt that sometimes it's hard to work in a group because one person may be pushy, some other person may not contribute ideas at all. But in the end the result was worth it as we have reached an outcome/plans.

Reflection
- if some of our group members summarize some of the website that was given and not waste their time.

reflection
I've learnt how the court works, and arranged from witness,cross examiner, researchers, chief executives to the juries. I developed my research and understanding skills.
I find finding information very easy, i think this is because i'm always doing this at home. I find cross examining hard because you need to ask questions and so on.
We constantly cross examine the witnesses. And the researches gather up information that is relevant/related to the topic. The chief executers were making sure everyone did their work. We are organized and prepare for the court case.
We had alot of teamwork during the court case. From the chief executers-> to researches- witness and cross examiners on the bench. We know what we're going to say, i think we can predict what our opposing team might say. We're confident in our evidence.
I think i did the researching really well, passing notes, searching more information in the court.
I think the target would be : More time to conduct the court case. Make the question clear and understandable.
I would practice my presentation skills at home and prepare notes and researches before hand

Against death penalty
The question is, does death penalty actually save lives?
For Death Penalty
For death Penalty
Most countries have abolished the death penalty. But I am going for Death Penalty. Why? because for example, if your best friend/parents/siblings got murdered. What will you do? You would want them dead right? Lets say if the Amnesty abolish the death penalty, What will happen? You can't do anything right?
If the death penalty is abolished , crime rate will rise. Unless the enforcement rate goes up, then it will be fine, but we can't 100% say it will go up will it?
AND ALSO
Its better to just kill the person then just keep them in a prison cell. It's so much cheaper. There is also a high chance that the prisoner might escape from prison and that leads to chaos. Facts and evidence supporting the abolishment of the death penalty are often exaggerated. A consequence for committing the crimes are necessary
For eg, Guantanamo Bay.
They torture you, but they wouldn't let you die.
Lets say the death penalty is abolish, would you want to suffer before death?

what is a crime? why do people commit crimes?
Why do people commit crimes?
- economic power
- jealousy
- fear
- peer pressure
- failure
- Necessity: If you are extremely poor and have to steal for instance.
- Convenience: While looking at an expensive diamond ring on a jewelry counter and the clerk walks away.
- Emotional: Hate crimes are on the increase and can be associated with this, also "crimes of passion" when a person kills there spouse and lover are often due to the extreme emotions of the situation.
- Ignorance of the Law: Sometimes you don't even know your breaking a certain law.
- Mental Illness: Many people who have mental health problems can't truly understand that what they are doing is breaking a law. Often similar to #4 (Ignorance). Can also be less severe like with shoplifting which is often a crime based on emotional issues rather than necessity.
- Pre-Disposition: Some people's personalities and life choices will prompt them to lead a life of crime. Repeat offenders.
- Environmental: If a child grows up believing that certain criminal activity is acceptable (drug dealing, prostitution, cheating on taxes, etc.) it can often enhance their potential for crime. Also, sometimes when people are involved in "group" crimes there are those who really didn't want to participate but only do so because they have a need for belonging.

Do you think you have been giving good feedback?
Well to tell you the truth. No.
Using the video explain why blogs are a good way to give feedback
Produce a table/diagram/presentation showing examples of good and bad feedback
Good Feedbacks
- Are good because you can know what you did good
- are good because you can know what you can improve
- you can know what you did wrong
- you are motivated, support by others in giving you feedbacks which makes you want to make it better
- If you're just here to give one sentence about the persons work, then you're wrong. " It's nice" or " You can do better" or " you did something wrong". This Isnt going to help. " It's nice" what's nice?! " you can do better" well what did I/you/he/she do wrong then? and what did i do good? " you did something wrong". What did i do wrong? my font? my colour? my page layout? or my words and the way I use it or is my research wrong?
- Bad feedbacks aren't going to help your friends anywhere. They wont know what they did wrong, they dont know why is it good, they dont even know what they did good. So no improvements from there.
Wednesday, January 26, 2011
Why is feedback important?
- Firstly you can know whats your good and weak point.
- You can know whats your mistakes
- you can know what to improve
- you can know what you did good.
- motivation
- challenging
Why you SHOULD save water
- we NEED water to live. NEED. im stressing on the word " NEED"
- we only have 3% of freshwater. and the rest are salt water
- We are made OF WATER.
- We need water to make juice, drinks, ice, soft drinks.
- to you people out there. Be glad that you even have water to drink. Water in Africa are polluted. Cholera is a disease that infects water. And they do not have clean water to drink
- did YOU know that using hot water in our homes contributes around 35million tonnes of greenhouse gases a year
- The energy used to produce hot water and also deliver water costs money. Energy use generates greenhouse gases which causes global warming
- And last but not least. WATER IS A VALUABLE ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCE, VITAL FOR SUSTAINING LIFE.
Ways you could conserve water
- I guess you can shower for like 10 mins rather than 1 hour( like me)
- You can install sprinklers in your garden
- Store buckets of water while washing your car
- Do not waste water.
- Don't flush so regularly. Well. obviously you have to flush while you do " big businesses "
- Swimming pool is a waste of space and water. But it has it's usefulness. So you can stop replacing the water in swimming pool and install a god damn filter.
Ways you waste water
- you take long showers. I mean i know you want to feel clean, and it feels nice to take long. long. long showers. BUT you just gotto think about the environment.
- You leave the hose on while washing your car- I know this is convenient, but do you know how much of water that you could supply to Africa when you just leave it on like that?
- You drink your water, and then throw it away- You might not finish it, but you're just throwing our water resources. Do you know that our body is made up about 70% of water? We cant survive without water for more than 3 days.
- you leave the tap on while brushing your teeth- Why cant you just do this while showering?
- watering your plants with a hose- Why cant you just buy a small watering bottle and just shower it on the leaves and the soil? rather then just hosing it like a retarded person. Or, you could install sprinklers.

How to conserve water in the outdoors
outdoors-
- check our leaks.
- use brooms not hose to clean the driveways and sidewalks
- don't run hose while washing the car
- deep soak lawns
- don't water the gutter- position your sprinklers so water lands on the lawn or garden, not on paved areas.
