Conclusion For Social Studies Project Labels: Starts school
We are doing recording and a photo album for our end product. We went chinatown twice to took photographs and interview the people there during the holidays.
It was tough doing the interviewing.No one wanted their voice to be recorded down.But after a long day, we managed to find 3 kind soul who were willing to tell us about their views on Chinatown. It was hardwork doing these on a hot and stuffy day. But still, we managed to complete it. Sadly, we must cut down the recordings to three from the expected six. Because of that, we decided to do a photo album. Since we had took alot of picture, it is quite an easy task for us to do. But in the middle of doing the photo album, i was absent from the group meeting as i went back to Indonesia. During the time i was in Indonesia, my group member had a few meetings with me via MSN. They had ask for my views and consent about certain things. After i came back, the rest of the group member had already to develop the photographs and arranged it on constructions paper. So all i have to do was type out the captions, print it out, cut and pasted it. I had also did the front cover and went to have our photo album bined. Actually, to tell the truth, i had done the most work even though i had been absent for 1 month during holidays. But in the end, when we ask Mrs Bala what we must improved in, she told us to changed the words of the front cover. With this last minute changed, we felt stress out. But thanks to the internet and Jing yu's help changing the lettering. We met alot of difficulty when doing this project. My group member were not that responsible all the time.Some never did any work and some were not concentrating when we have group meeting. But we managed to solved it and talk it out.
I have learnt alot doing this project. Now i know more about the chinatown history, how the people lived in the past. Their living condition, their problems faced. I also know the history of streets and some temple and what impression do Chinatown give.The most important thing is, i learnt to cherish what i have now.
Seriously, i was not really satisfied with our end product. It was not the best that we can do. Seeing others with their beautifully and perfectly done project, i started to worry about what grade we will get. It was not easy to do something without cooperation and lacked of communication, irresponsible and lazy. I'm not being mean or a hypocrite, i was just wanted to state the fact that my group was not good at any of it.
