Life Hacks & Tricks

Introduction

From this project i will be doing a life hack/skill slides. I will learn about how much people are different from one another by choosing to do things their own way. Then i will be doing research and going around asking other students if they can perform any neat tricks and if they learned it or if it naturally came to them. Lastly i will be creating a blog over everything i learned and some of the nifty life hacks i learned along the way. That is what will be doing for my passion project.

Progress Post 1

 I think planning is a skill that was important this week. I made progress on my project by creating an action plan to organizing my goals into multiple weeks such as searching for research, practicing the new learned tricks, perfecting the new tricks, and then blogging them. Planning helped me create an action plan for me to follow and lead to my success of creating this project.

  Planning is a very useful skill in which it helped me plan my action plan into a simpler fashion. When i first started this project i needed to find what i wanted to do for the project, what resources i would need, how i would gather my research, and create my blog for the project. My teacher came up with the idea to plan ahead on a calendar so that when we proceeded with the project we would have our actions ready for us to take action. I’m glad my teacher suggested that we plan ahead since there is a lot to do like finding your research, creating a blog, and making blog posts which require quite a long while.     Planning is also important so i don’t procrastinate on my work. Usually when it comes to projects like this i tend to procrastinate because i don’t know how to start off my project,  don’t a game plan to work off of , and end up getting frustrated. My action plan starts with me researching for my project, next i am going to  practice the neat tricks i have learned, after that i will be perfecting these tricks in order to perform them smoothly, and finally i will be blogging how to perform these tricks in detail in order to help others be a little more productive. Planning is going to help me motivate myself to complete the goals i assigned to that specific week since there will be a lot to accomplish in the number of weeks that are coming up and this will lead me into creating my final product which is the blog of the neat tricks and how to perform them.

I am very excited to start my research over my passion project in these next couple of days. For my research i will be going to classmates and asking them if they have any little life hacks they have that would be convenient and i will also be researching at home as well. Once i gather my research i will begin practicing these life hacks in order to begin perfecting them for the next week.

Progress post 3

I have started to practice these life hacks at home and a little bit at school. i still need more time to practice them but soon i will master them. i have also been documenting my blog in a blog checklist to see if i have everything so that it makes sense such as if it has relevant multimedia, if my blog is easy to follow, and if my headings above the progress posts makes sense. Next week i will continue working on my blog and hopefully finish the blog.

My final steps for this project is to create my google slides and then present my slides and my blog to my class mates and to my teacher. This project was fun but there was a lot of information needed, but as the i moved through the project it got easier.
