lL ls my personal bellef LhaL l have solved Lhe problem of noL belng Laken serlously by
Leachers and adulLs, as l have creaLed a blended sysLem LhaL could easlly be lmplemenLed lnLo Lhe
school aL CaLar Academy. 1hls ls because by presenung lL ln a professlonal manor and Laklng lL
serlously, lL means LhaL adulLs would have no excuse noL Lo look aL Lhe ldea ob[ecuvely, wlLh my

Powever, lL also solves Lhe problem
of lnpumng a posluve change lnLo CA,
because lL ls rsL and foremosL, a

1he lnvesugauve sLyle of Lhe deslgn cycle was hlghly successful for myself, l found. uesplLe

felL as lf l worked well, buL as l have already sald above, l dld sLruggle wlLh sLaylng on Lask aL

1he deslgn sLage was denlLely dlmculL Lo come up wlLh Lhree, well developed deslgns LhaL
were all equally feaslble. ersonally, l have a hablL of focuslng on one deslgn LhaL l prefer and
spendlng Loo much ume on lL. 1hls ls why someumes l sLruggle durlng Lhls sLage. Powever, Mr
ChrlsLoudouloo was exceedlng helpful when he Lold us LhaL we could use someone else's lf
necessary. l also found Lhe facL LhaL were allowed Lo presenL our ldeas ln any way (Lo an exLenL). l

ln Lurn awarded my a 6. Powever, Lhere was a mlscommunlcauon when our Leacher explalned how
we should presenL our deslgns, and on my slde, l mlsundersLood, meanlng as oppose Lo

lor Lhls sLage, l conslsLenLly worked well and Lrled hard ln class. 8uL agaln, l also felL as lf
Lhere was [usL so much Lo do, and so llule ume, whlch made me sLress and Lhen l found lL hard Lo
focus. As a resulL of Lhls l found myself spendlng more ume Lhan necessary on lL, because of my
lnablllLy Lo focus. Cnce Lhe sLeps were nally done, l was ln a hurry Lo compleLe Lhe quesuons
regardlng Lhe feaslblllLy of Lhe plan, or ume managemenL eLc. 1hls ls someLhlng LhaL was denlLely

1hls ls Lhe sLage of Lhe deslgn cycle LhaL l am mosL proud of, especlally Lhe movle LhaL l
made. 1hls was because as oppose Lo [usL uslng plcLures and a volceover, l used lnLervlews and
vldeos Lo make a much more professlonal look. As well as Lhls, l also made a lacebook page, a
survey on Coogle docs, a logo, a webslLe, a posLer and a nal keynoLe, whlch l used Lo presenL my

Lowards Lhe end of Lhe creaLe sLage l reallsed LhaL l could noL [usL presenL a vldeo Lo Mr PlLchman,
and LhaL ln facL l also needed a keynoLe as well. 1herefor, once l had compleLed Lhe keynoLe, l
needed Lo updaLe my plan wlLh Lhe new sLeps. As l have prevlously sLaLed, LhaL Lhe plan was also a
llule shorL and Lherefor l also worked on Lhls when l had spare ume. Cverall l belleve l denlLely
worked Lo Lhe besL of my ablllLy and l am exclLedly proud of my accompllshmenLs.

lor Lhe nexL pro[ecL, l would llke Lo achleve Lhe followlng:
1) K2'-,88 R'%2(#$8 - 1hey need Lo be much more ln depLh, and lnclude aspecLs abouL any

a goal for Lhe nexL lesson, ln accordance Lo whaL needs Lo be done and when, Lo keep on

2) O*I, I#(#<,I,(/ S 8egardless of Lhe facL LhaL l belleve my ume managemenL skllls have

Cn a small scale, we could also sLarL Lo provlde rewards for oLher grades, below Lhe 9&10 level, so

buL perhaps a compromlse could be found LhaL would sulL boLh parues equally. Cn a large

ersonally, l would llke Lo hope LhaL Lhe school would become a more mouvaLed place, on Lhe
whole. lf sLudenLs are concenLraLed and focused ln class, Leachers would Lhen also become
happler, as a resulL of Lhe lesser amounL of sLress. Cnce sLudenLs reallse LhaL Lhe reward ls
someLhlng worLh worklng for, and LhaL lL ls someLhlng achlevable, Lhey should begln Lo work much
harder ln class. As l have also sLaLed above, Lhls producL could evolve ln Lhe way LhaL lL could
lnLroduce more rewards for Lhe lower grades. Cr perhaps oLher schools could also adopL Lhe
lnluauve.
