Pecha Kucha presentation 20 x 20
ignite presentation 15 x 15 
bigger than size 30


I learned about the styles of presentation called Pecha Kucha. they time each slide to make it the same and there are 20 slides. Mr. Paterson mentioned how it was not the style we would be doing and I was relieved since it looked like a lot of work. 
I worked on my AWL and my score was around 3.5. I realized that I had to higher my score to 5 to get to the average. the AWL is of words were surprisingly not too BIG words and it was easy to change the simple words I used. It made me realize that there are so many synonyms for a word and repeat the same words could be avoided.
I was able to hight my score to 4.5 and my vocabulary was more advanced. lextutor is probably a website that I would be using in the future to analyze my writings as well. The AWL list is also something I would come back to constantly and check to add certain vocabulary. I found out that the AWl list is easier o add if the writing if already done. adding the words whilst writing makes it a little more difficult.

10/7 2021 meatrix

     In small groups, we watched short clips of the “meatrix”. They unfold the truth behind factory farming and industrial agricultural practices. The meatrix included scenes of the movie matrix, and by adding humor they were able to attract a wider audience. As of right now, the clips are available in 11 languages, which does not include Japanese. As Mr.Paterson mentioned, cognition regarding current issues is low in Japan. Not only does the video explain the issues surrounding factory farming, but it also gives out information on what viewers can do. Moreover, each version of the meatrix followed the storyline of the actual movies, which I found enjoyable.        I found it interesting how Mr. Paterson referred to this class as taking the "red pill". Over the past few years, my English skills have progressed, and was also able to gain more knowledge. Especially this year, learning about politics and systems of the government has shocked me in ma...

On march 7th Tuesday, the first lesson after the new era, we learned how to use the website "Blogger". However, since the WiFi was not working, it was difficult to catch up and get to the page. Although the internet was awfully slow, i was able to use the website. This website allows us to write our reflections for every class and i think that writing reflection are important things to do, because it enables us to look back and see what we thought about a specific topic or I can see how much I changed looking back at my own reflections. Therefore, I also think that keeping a diary is also essential; however, I know how having to do something every day is hard to do it continuously but the task that mr.paterson gave us made me think that this could be a beneficial habit.

Year 4 Reflective Blog

     One business strategy I was stunned by was planned obsolescence, which is a technique that is certainly not sustainable, yet too common in contemporary society. The product is planned and designed by the manufacturers to have a limit so that consumers would come back. For example, Japanese houses are said to last around 30 years; however, it usually takes 30 years to pay back the mortgage of the property. Houses are designed to deliberately deteriorate so that people would keep buying new houses. The same goes with terminator seeds which I was completely unaware of. The DNA of the seeds is tinkered so that only one plant grows and is terminated. This strategy procedure creates a cycle so that consumers would have to come back for more. From these examples, I was able to learn how the efficiency of marketing concentrates on profit rather than the quality of products. Although businesses need their profits in order to grow, it made me wonder whether these houses are wo...
