What do I know about the tools I am using? I know a fair bit about the tools I am using. I know how to fade, insert a keyframe, size an scale an object, import an image, use the layers, create motion tweens etc. However sometimes I did need to ask somebody for help as the computer would not respond to me or I couldn’t see where I went wrong. Have I encountered anything like this before? Yes and no. In a sense yes, as we have done heaps of work like this in class. I have use Flash to hep me with other assignments during the year. But also no as I have not done anything like Flash before this year. What questions can I ask to help me understand what is required? I asked a fair bit of questions as I found myself complaing to the computer as it would not do as I wanted it do. But also asked questions about if I wanted to do something in particular. My friend was also more than willing to help me tackle the problems I faced so I rarely need to ask the teacher but I did ask Mrs Beadle some questions. What skills and knowledge will I be using? I will be using all the skills and knowledge I know about Flash in order to get a good project. I had to pull all my knowledge on Flash to make sure everything flowed and looked really good. || What do I need in order to do this? Learn how to successfully make it fade and keep looking over how to do stuff. Explain the task in your own words. I am going to explain what happening (the story), then maybe do some information. Investigate some examples. What are the obstacles? Animation difficulties, computer stuffing up etc. Can I draw a diagram that will help me to visualise my work? Yes, I drew an storyboard to help me see what I am going to do but I will probably change it. How will I know that I have completed the task? When everything looks good and completed. When I have done everything I could think of has been completed and everything I want is done. || Consider the advantages and disadvantages of each idea. Some of my ideas may be too long or too short to do. Some may be too difficult to do but some have some really good messages in them and will be fun to do. Is there another way to do this? What resources (books, websites, etc.) have I been provided with? I didn’t think there were websites we could use but we could use our subjects to provide us with an idea. What do other people think about this? || Explain your reasons for choosing these. What the arguments for and against each idea? All these ideas would be interesting to do. They all have their pros and cons. But some of these ideas maybe too hard to do and they may be too long. Which idea is the best one for completing the task? Probably doing something along the lines of Human Rights in Social Studies. What is my plan? To keep track of my time and to plan it out successfully. To make sure everything is going accord to plan. How will I keep track of my progress? What are my milestones? I will keep track of my progress by having a plan to keep track of the time I have left and to help me in what direction I am heading in. My milestone is to achieve a great presentation that looks good and to use my time wisely. I need to make sure I don’t spend too much time on one particular area but to space it out. || Am I doing this correctly? I think so. Do I need to revise my plan? As you continue, you may discover facts that require changing the plan. I did need to re-look over my plan as sometimes I found my ideas maybe a little to high too reach and I need to change the idea to suit my project. || What have I done? I have made a presentation about an issue in Human Rights campaigns. What have I done really well? My animation was pretty good and the way I set out my assignment. Could I have done it better? What areas need improvement? I don’t think I could improve anything Am I ready to communicate my ideas or show/display my work to others? Yes I believe that my project is in tip top shape. || What is the best way to present this to my audience? By using the way I design it. Using Flash. What should I say to ensure my audience understands? Describe each scene and go into more detail than how I did my project. How do I interest my audience in my ideas? By getting them involved. Do I have the right information to get my message across to my audience? Yes I do. || How have I improved since that last time I worked on a similar task? The way I preformed it. What knowledge have I learned? None really. Can this knowledge be used elsewhere? Yes in other presentations that involves similar ideas. How has my thinking changed as a result of this work? None. What skills have I learned and developed? How to use information wisely and to present it in a neat way. Can these skills be applied to other subjects/activities? Yes, because it other subjects we will have to do projects like this. What problems did I have to solve? Animation was a big problem to get it right. How did I use the strengths of others to help me? I used the skills of my friends where I knew where I knew where they lay e.g. my friend Charlotte is very good at animation and I used her to help me in that field. || TASC - Thinking Actively in a Social Context [|http://www.tascwheel.com] WebQuestUK [] Welcome to e-TASC [] What do I know about the tools I am using?
