Which words came up the largest?
The word: housing, Australia, poverty, affordable, data
Which word came up smallest?
The word: Rise, government, impact, affect
What surprised me?
I was surprised that the word “demand”, “supply”, “income” was not as big as I expected. This means that I am slightly off-topic and missed some parts of my research.
What might be missing?
Some words like “graph” “fluctuate” “location” are missing. This shows that I am missing research in my supporting question: “What causes the price of housing to fluctuate over time?” and “What part in Australia has the most critical poverty? “
Are your large words part of, or synonymous with, compelling/supporting questions?
According to the word cloud, I have most of my large word is part of my compelling and support questions. However, there are some like “accessed” and “customize” that have not had much connection to my compelling questions.
Are your small words parts of, or synonymous with, compelling/supporting questions?
The majority of my small words are parts of my compelling question. However, there are some words that do not have any connection to my compelling question. For example, “covid” “western” do not have anything to do with my questions.
So what? What refinements do you need to make to your supporting question/searches?
I have to check on my words and increase my research information more specific for my supporting question because some of the words in my wall cloud is not specific enough.
In my first version of Project Shelter, I learnt how useful it is to design a prototype before creating the actual design. I also learned that, applying other people’s feedback because they are seeing the design in a different perspective. Another thing i learned is defining the design problem and designing it in the direction towards the target audience. Lastly, sharing my product and my learning with others to reflect my learning and getting ideas
It was a sad rainy day; a sharp and very brief sound comes through the clouds like a giant drum along with a giant strike next to it. I am Li Ming, and I lived through the Cultural Revolution. The amounts of antique items I broke is worth more than your spending’s in your entire life. Let me explain what happened during this time period, read my journal.
Many things have changed throughout the revolution. For example, many peasants were able to have a greater choice on their jobs, before they could only choose some normal jobs like farming and factory labor. But now, you could create your own company or create a small industries and others. And with the revolution, the big amount of tourism to china can be observed easily, many places in China are linked with railroads and air. Also, the cities exploded, many cities dramatically increased its technology and wealth. However, although the Cultural Revolution is started to change China, but many also stayed the same. For example, with the start to the end of the revolution, China was still Chinese Communist party and that there is only one-party leader. As well as the people’s thinking on Mao, Chairman Mao in many Chinese people’s mind are still a great leader. Last but not least, many old things were destroyed by the Red Guards but the Four Olds still remained a lot in the world.
The causes of the Chinese Cultural Revolution were because that in order to reassert his authority over the Chinese government, Mao Zedong tried to use the Revolution to reassert his control over the Communist Party. Although millions of civilians died, tortured and suffered humiliation. The revolution was a big change for China, the revolution helped China made a sharp turn towards the international economy and market, peasants were able to have a greater choice, being able to choose different crops and creating other small industries and others. However, some continued to be the same, farmers are still farming and suffering from hunger, but for the long-term, it will impact China for a long time and help China developing.
The book i’m going to tell about is called “Lost in the Antarctic” by Tod Olson. This book is about an real event that happened during the World War I. In this book a very famous Antarctic explorer Shakleton and his crewmates were stuck in the Antarctic and they were trying to survive and return to their homes. Tod Olson believed that Hope often helps people to believe and trust.
You should definetly read this book as theres a lot of interesting areas in the book such as describing how harsh it was in the Antarctic for example how cold and terrible it was to be on the ice travelling and how much fun they had playing sports on the ice. It is like as if you were really stuck in the Antarctic with them. Also, in the book there is a lot of pictures that was tooken by the crews members, the pictures have cute animals such as puppies and penguins as well as the mountains in the Antarctic and the ship itself. Last but not least, the event that happened in the book actually happened in the real world so while you are enjoying the book you are also learning the history.
One thing I learned from this book is that no matter how little chances you have, it is always worth a try. Before, when there was only a little chance I would just stop but once after i fnished the book I know that even when theres only a little chance it is still worth a shot to try.
The Boxer Rebellion deserves a bad reputation. They killed innocent christian chinese as well as missionaries and many foreigners. The Boxers killed foreigners and christian chinese because they thought that they caused the flood. When the reinforcement comes, the boxers hid in the crowd and making sure not get found. However, this caused the reinforcements to have no idea who are the Boxers as they wanted revenge therefore executing innocent civilians that looks like the Boxers.
