Name of Assignment: HARF Project Subject: Community Engagement Facilitator/Teacher: Ms. Ford
Description of Work/Assignment: For this assignment we had to create a video that would help information people about the vaccines and diseases their dog/cat could get.
Which 21st Century Skill do you feel this assignment addresses, and why? : I feel like this was a project that addresses the Civic Literacy and Engagement 21st century skill. Part of this skill means to impact the lives of the community and others. I feel like this video that we made definitely impacted pet owners and now they know what to look out for.
What are you most proud of from this assignment, and why? : The thing I am most proud of from this assignment is that we were able to go through the video take once. Then, we made a backup video just to be safe. We also figured out how to edit a video so that was pretty nice.
How did you develop and/or improve upon your 21st Century Skill with this assignment? : I developed my 21st century skill by searching up the most asked questions by pet owners according to vaccines/diseases. Then, I wrote it down to get some answers from Penny (Worker at HARF). Now, we have a video informing pet owners and others about these things.
What was most difficult about completing this task? : The thing that was most difficult about this task was editing portion of the project. No one in our group never really knew how to edit a video but then, we figured it out together.
How could you improve this work? If you could start over, what would you do different? : I could improve this work by having more phone cameras for better/more angles, so it would look a little more professional. It would also look a lot better than just watching from one angle.
How does this relate to what you have learned in the past? : This relates to a project I had in 8th grade. We had to take a video and no one knew how to edit so we ended up just winging it without searching up how to edit a video. it didn't really turn out well.
How can you apply this to future learning? : I can apply this to future learning by knowing and reminding myself that we should really take advantage of the internet with situations like these.
