Selection of sources
Internet is full of information about climate change and other global
issues, so the only think I had to do was to select reliable and
efficient sources, because the information found on the internet
cannot always be 100% accurate. The main criteria for electronic
resources were:
Application of information
Completing my project was not an easy job. In the middle of the
process I understood, that in the beginning I was a little bit
overconfident, and that I will not be able to reach my visionary
product, because I had minimum IT skills. Although I had some
technical problems, we gathered with IT Supervisor and discussed
on how we solve them. Teachers helped me a lot and gave useful
advice. Biology Supervisor helped me to pick out accurate
information.
Before creating a website, I made a plan about my future product
and made a site map. While doing research, I had to adjust my map,
because I found new information, or I did not find enough
information. For example, in printed and electronic resources was a
lack of information about Lithuania or Siauliai, so I had to delete
webpage about my home city.
Reflection on learning
From this project I learnt a lot about my qualities, challenged my
abilities and skills, improved my knowledge about global issues and
about IT techniques. Even writing the report with the set amount of
words was a new experience for me, but not as hard and
unrealizable as I thought before. I think that the way I chose to
achieve my goal and the techniques I used were appropriate.
Although there were hard moments and difficulties, I enjoyed doing
my personal project. Probably because I liked what I was doing, I did
not thing about it as an assignment. As I said, this project helped me
to understand and to know myself better. This project helped me to
reach some qualities form IB Learner Profile, I became more
balanced, risk taker, reflective. I gained experience on how to
manage time better and to keep on schedule, I also gained
experience on how internet sites are created. These new useful
gained skills will help me to deal with time management problems in
IB.
Having environment as my central AOI helped me understand the
impact that people and their actions and behavior have on the
environment and their consequences. Every human being must
realize that each individual is responsible for the environment. It is
important that people change their habits and take action against
polluting the environment. Knowledge and awareness of these
issues in what takes to have people change their habits and start
acting responsible to the environment.
All in all, this project was a great experience before entering the IB. I
am happy about my product and hope that its mission to other
people about better environment will be accomplished.
