Day 26

April 30th

The class was told that today was the last day for research in the lab. It was a tense class for me because I still felt behind and lost. I tried to answer my guiding questions. I was able to but I couldn't get the answer to 2 questions from social class I have been working on those question for about 2 weeks and I still couldn't find the answers. I worked really well and focused allot. I guess when I am under pressure I work better and I think I worked well because I was taking my cast of in the weekend (happy mood). And luckily no one disturbed me like last lesson.  In my perspective  I think I that this lesson was the best lesson I had in all the lab. I was satisfied with the amount of work I accomplished but I still couldn't find the answer to the missing 2 guiding questions.

Day 25

April 28th

In class I didn't use the shortcut at all. I directly went to google which I thought would be easier to find information. I was right in a way because I could focus on one characteristic instead of reading a whole bunch and pick out the information seperately.  I googled about the Egyptian Religion and found quite allot of websites but they all basically had the same information. I was distracted a bit from some guy behind me (not going to say name), kept on fooling around and banging my foot int a bar. I did get some good notes and others were normal. I wasn't fully satisfied I think I could have done better if I focused a bit more.  At least I answered all my guiding questions for religion.

Day 24

April 27th

I arrived to class on time again and quickly went to the short cut. I focused on social class again. Surprisingly I didn't find much, so I decided to try something different this time. I went to ask. com and typed in some of my guiding questions but that was a waste of time. It didn't really give the answers I needed. So then I decided to try using youtube but that took to long to load. At the end I used brainpop. Brainpop was very brief and mentioned all the basics, so I didn't get much from it. Overall I think I worked well although I didn't get much information. Probably next lesson I would stick to googling. At least I know for next time. Overall I was satisfied with my final work. I didn't find the researching hard since there was a big choice of websites to choose.

Day 23

April 26th

Luckily I was in school for this lesson. I came into class on time surprisingly since I was late to most of the other classes. I quickly logged on to my account and directly went to the shortcut. I wasn't able to access them when I was absent, so I really needed to catch up. I focused mostly on social class because I felt like I didn't do well in it. I used most of the websites on the shortcut and I found them very useful. I think I worked really good since I just came to school and that my foot was hurting  a bit.  I worked really hard because I felt very behind then the rest of the class. I did not find lots of extra information, but the notes that I had were really good. When I looked over my work I found that they were to brief and that they should be a bit more detailed.

Day 22

April 23rd

I wasn't able to work, because the doctor told me to rest for two days.

Day 21

April 21st

I worked at home again and focused on art this time since I couldn't find any more about architecture. Luckily I had more luck this time with art more than architecture, and I had very good notes which I think will have a big part in the essay. I used my time wisely and better than the other two days.  I got to work freely with no instructions or deadlines to meet. When I looked over my notes I think they were very good, and I don't feel like I missed out anything. 

Day 20

April 20th

I worked at home again since I did not recover. I focused basically on architecture. I didn't find much information I may have checked five websites but out of those five only 2 were actually useful.  I got some notes but not as much as I expected. I think I worked well and used up my time wisely. Some distractions around the house but I managed. I rather work in school rather than at home because I am there aren't any distractions as there are at home.  Luckily I did find extra information which did not have a relation with my guiding questions. 

Day 19

April 19th

Today I was absent but I decided to do some work at home. I worked the same amount of time as I would in class. I couldn't get the websites that Mrs.Flicher gave us because I don't have the shortcut. So I decided to look on my own. I found lots of useful information about art and architecture. Since I didn't have my folder I wrote all my information on my copy book.I think I worked hard despite my injury and the distractions around me. Luckily, there were no instructions or deadlines for me to follow so I had more freedom. I think I used my time wisely and worked well. Next time I should focus on a separate section instead of jumping around.

Day 18

April 16th

I was absent.

Day 17

April 14th

Today the whole class met by the multi media lab. Mrs.Flicher came to class and helped out. The class was first taught how to put a shortcut from Mrs. Flicher's folder to the desktop. That short cut was linked to a website that was made by Mrs. Flicher and had a bunch of websites that would be useful for our research. We were allowed to look at 2 websites and write down some notes. On one of the websites I didn't write any notes because it was the exact same information as the encyclopedia I looked at earlier. I didn't get to finish looking at the second website but I still did get some notes. We didn't do that much work but I still think I worked well because I followed all instructions perfectly. Mabey next lesson I will be able to work more and answer my missing 2 questions.

Day 16

April 13th

Today in class I looked at a couple of books but they only repeated all the notes I had. So I asked Mr.Sparks if it was ok to work on my blogger, but he said that there is no way that I could be finished. He knockeed some sence in to me and asked me if I looked at some encyclopedias. I went and checked and I luckly found a couple of pages on Egypt. Unluckly I didn't find the answer to my 2 questions but I did find extra information that I added into my folder. The bell rang but I didn't get to write down the bibliography. In this class I bearly did anything in the beginning  but then after Mr.Sparks told me about the encyclopedias. Overall I worked really hard and fast in the second half only. Since today was the last class in the library I hope I so better online and find the answer to those two questions.

Day 15

April 12th

Instead of meeting in the library the whole class met in the class room. The first half of the was wasted on debating if the class should spend a day or two more in the library to wrap up our notes. At the end of the class we decided that we would spend another two days in the library. I was satisfied with two days I perffered one day. We went up to the library and I went over some of the books. I completed answering the guiding questions that I came up with, but I could not find the answers to 2 questions from Social Class. So this class I focused on trying to answer those two questions, but with no luck. I think I worked hard in class but I was fustrated that I couldn't find the answers. At least I tried.

Day 14

April 2nd

In the library Mr.sparks told the class that it was going to be the last day in the library to work on our research project. That did make my situation tense. I wanted to make sure that I didn't leave anything out. I first started on the book from the previous lesson and I think I did well in that because I had a couple of good notes. Then I checked the library to see if there were any other books that are useful or that I didn't write a bibliography for. I found a couple of books that needed a bobliography. Overall I think I worked ok, probably because I didn't feel like I accomplished that much work. Looking for the books and writing the bibliography did take quite a long time.
