Kim's 2 Minutes to Make a Difference Final Reflection
Google Docs
Version 1
Final Cut
-The changes we made for version 2 is that we recorded our voices again to make our voices understandable compared to the first version we made. We also added more information and reasons why the viewers should care about poverty, and we made the expert's email to us larger for the viewers to see the image clearly. The comments were definitely helpful for us because without their comments, we wouldn't honestly know what was missing in the video we made.
How did you find your expert? List 3 important points your expert added to your movie. What did you learn from your expert?
-We found our expert by searching in the internet then I found a company where they help children who are living in poverty. The expert that we contacted actually helped us a lot by answering our questions about poverty in Africa, we added the information she gave us such as:
- Poverty prevents people from living to their fullest potential.
- Many children who grow up in poverty have difficulty doing well at school or drop out of school.
- This often means that they aren’t able to use all of the skills and talents that they have to contribute to our society.
We learned many things from our expert, like, successful strategies on the reduction of poverty such as; Increasing government spending so that education and important social programs (health care, housing, etc) are provided to people living in poverty can make a big difference and Increasing the minimum wage and putting in strict laws to make sure that people have good working conditions.
What was your greatest success in the 2 minutes project. What skills will you take away with you and use in the future?
-Our greatest success on this project would be finishing it and making it better because as we were doing the project, there was never a time that we didn't get distracted. The skill that I will be taking with me in the future is trying to make a difference by starting out small like the video we just made as a group.
What frustrated you during the movie making process? What strategies did you use to become successful?
-The thing that frustrated me during the making of our movie was that we were always laughing that we had difficulties on finishing the movie. We succeeded our goal on finishing the movie by coordinating with each other and became really serious about the project.
Why is the 2 Minutes project important to Grade 8 Students?
-The 2 minutes project is important to us because we now reached the age where we have to start realizing that there are many people in the world that are living in a state in where they are really struggling to go through life every single day. We are very blessed because of the life we are living now and we would like to share this blessing by making a difference and starting small.
How will you make a difference in the future?
-I will try my best to make a difference by donating things that are not needed and think about the children who are living in poverty that would die for water and food.
