REFLECTION

            I know   that this PrEd 152, which is a laboratory subject, is very stressful regarding in doing the drawings and passing it through Gmail add. At first I am worried because I am not totally expert regarding in this social sites, but still I am thankful, because of this, I already know how to make my own Gmail address and be able to use it. I am also now exposed to social networking sites and that’s also because of this. I know that it’s very hard and it takes time for me to do those 12 exercises and of course can spend a lot of money, but still it gives me much learning and knowledge while doing these activities. Among those exercises that we have done, I have top three activities that I can say my favorites. My 3^rd activity I like is the MS PowerPoint which I used to make especially in doing some reports. I like this because I enjoyed applying some animations, transitions and many more techniques that trigger me to do a best presentation. In doing my PowerPoint presentation I am truly inspired and eager to make some improvements and make it more interesting with corresponding knowledge from it. The top 2 is the MS Publisher, which I also enjoyed here making my own concepts and designs. I am very inspired to make it even though I have slept 1o’clock in the morning, but still I worth it. And lastly my top 1 favorite activity is the Movie maker. Honestly we had a problem doing our taping because some of our group mates were not around as the time we will going to meet. So we don’t have choice but to start our taping instead of doing nothing at that day. At that day we are very happy because we made it without any script and thanks to my other group mates. We thought that, that was the only problem we will encounter but unexpectedly we haven’t attended our presentation day and awarding as well, because of some technical problems. Our files was corrupted and we will have to fix it again and make it burn on a Cd. Joseph Fe Mayor, Dale  Marie Renomeron and I was totally worried at that time and we even lost our hope. It was already almost 5o’clock and the awarding is over when we arrived to our room,  but still we are happy because of the beautiful comments that my classmates have said to our video. They said that if we just arrived early there is a possibility that we will get the best award ever had. I know that it’s “Sayang” but still we are very happy and we are proud with our educational show and for us we are the best among the video of our classmates.

            I have learned through these experiences, that all of these are test to make us or even me become stronger and eager to do more things even my whole best. It really improves my ability especially in enhancing my self-confidence and teamwork as well. As a future educator, it is very important to be aware of all things and be able to be strong to face all the challenges that may come in my way. I will use this all learning and apply these all in my future life. I will treasure every experiences that I have been through and be a better person someday.

             I am so thankful and very happy with the help of my friends and classmates at the time I am doing these activities, that they are there to assist me always. And also to my instructor Mr. Helmar Ycong whom I thought was strict and not approachable but I am wrong, he is totally so kind, considerate and very thoughtful teacher. Thank you sir for the patience you have exerted and kindness you have given to us as always. Thank you for appreciating our works and correcting our mistakes that makes us more eager to do better, thank you so much sir.

Also I’m amazed with its uses and learned that this application is not that easy to use, because as what our group have experienced difficulties. This activity helped enhanced our ability in applying some techniques and of course developed us teamwork as a group.

We are required to put some techniques in making our PowerPoint presentation to become more presentable to viewers and of course efficient for learning as well.

                The thing that I learned in this exercise is that I have improved my ability in making my power point presentation be more interesting and efficient for learning. In addition I have explored more techniques that are very important which I can use and apply it when I will make another PowerPoint presentation in the future.

                In this exercise we use the application of Microsoft which is the MS Word. We used this application so that we can write our lesson plan. After that we are instructed to send it through e-mail of course with the use of our g-mail address.

                The thing that I have learned in this exercise is that I have enhanced more my ability in engaging this MS Word application and executed or used the techniques and keys that I need to apply on this exercise. I have realized that this application is very important and a big help especially in doing some reports and etc. In addition it’s really important to explore more tings regarding with this MS Word application.

                In this exercise we use a transparency sheet because this sheet is commonly used when talking about over-head projector. We used some techniques like overlaying. Lesson plan is also required in this activity which the content of it, is the one will be put on the transparency sheet.

                The thing that I learned in this exercise is that I already know how to use the over-head projector. Also I have learned to apply different techniques in writing the topics on the transparency sheets, on how to present it using over-head projector.

EXERCISE 5 (NON-OBJECTIVE SHAPES)

                In this exercise we have given one minute to draw on a one half white cartolina without seeing it, because we are instructed by our instructor to close our while doing this task. The reason for this is that we will be able to have a non-formal drawing and after that we will put different color on it and we will make sure that all area will be filled with colors and after that we are instructed to put our own desired title of the drawing.

                The thing that I have learned in this exercise is that, it helped me improved my talent in executing the color. And the same as from the previous activity it really improves my ability in doing this artwork and helped me to have long patience and tempered, because executing the different colors was very hard and tricky and it really needs more time for me to do it especially my artwork is very tiny and hard to determine what else I must put a color. In addition, I have to trace it as much as possible review it many times to be sure that all are filled with colors.

EXERCISE 4 (NINE TECHNIQUES)

                In this exercise, we executed nine techniques in drawing. Then, we drew the same tree image, but with different techniques we applied on it and those are: Vertical, horizontal, diagonal, cross, zigzag, spirals, circles, dots and smudge.

                The thing that I learned in this exercise is that I already know how to use those nine techniques in the drawing even though at first I have a hard time executing it with corresponding techniques, but I find it fun and I have really enjoyed this activity.  Also I already know how to combine different techniques and I will continue develop this ability for my future dreams. In addition I knew how to apply those things from the first activity and I’m so thankful with it.

EXERCISE 3 (THE HUMAN FACE)

                What we did in this exercise is, we drew a human face in which there were a lot of techniques we had applied. First, we need to draw six oblongs and then next is put a broken line on the center in order to draw the corresponding parts of the face and it is step by step activity.

                The thing I have learned in this exercise is that before doing some moves in doing the activity, you need to have plan on what to do first before executing it. In addition I have to follow some steps in order to come up with a good result , as usual patience is very needed in this activity with corresponding hard work.

EXERCISE 2 (BOTTLE AND PLANTS WITH SHADES)

                In this exercise we drew a bottle with a plant beside it. We used some techniques in order to balance the two models and we have to make it look like its original image depending on where we positioned. We also drew squares with different shades and our instructor give as specific measurement that we should follow as uniformity.

                The thing that I learned in this exercise is that I already know how to balance the measurement on how I am going to make estimation on certain image, so that I can come up a good result of my drawing. Another thing is, I also know how to adjust and make a plan on how I can execute my work, because it needs to plan before starting the drawing and it really needs patience in doing this activity.

EXERCISE 1 (VISUALIZATION)

                In this exercise we will have to visualize things and we are free to decide of what we will draw that represents freedom, unity, strength and energy, as long as we can give its meaning or description why we choose to draw that certain symbols, or sample pictures and of course with its corresponding explanations.

                The things that I have learned from this exercise are: it helped me a lot in enhancing my critical thinking and visualization though it’s very hard for me to decide what should I draw at that time but in the end I made it. Another thing is that, it helps me improved my drawing ability because honestly I’m not used to draw before and I’m not totally good in drawing , but through this exercise I used to love drawing things even though it’s not so good at first but at least I have tried I’m  proud of it. I have learned also to have long patience and tempered especially I have to draw four representations and it really takes time but in the end I successfully did it.
