Floods

Floods have an insignificant effect on Earth’s atmosphere or any of the spheres. Although, when floods occur you can find a slight change of the humidity as the atmosphere absorbs water from floods making more air mass as well as increase the evaporation in the atmosphere. Floods also  causes the surface of the earth to dissolve, decompose, and break into smaller pieces. An understanding of floods to handle this natural disaster would be to have more flood barriers,and create more wetland. If a flood warning occurs move valuables to a higher ground and to stay in contact with family. At any moment you may ed to leave your home and stay with a family member or friend.

Ignite presentation

Posted by Elijah Banks on Tuesday, May 23, 2017 at 2:02 pm

For the first quarter I was assigned to do a website design project. It was supposed to be a way of me learning how to make one and let people know about me. The goal was for me to have a intriguing home, about me, resumé, and project page. I successfully completed those goals and created my website by showing who I was and stuff about me. For the second quarter I did 3D modeling. The goal was to create a 3D model and display my knowledge of using the tool. I used the Pixlr tool to help me create my Iphone design which turned out successful. I learned how to use the tool and I completed creating the Iphone.

For the third quarter I did graphic design. The goal of this project was to create a sign that would be helpful in the world, community, etc. I believe this project wasn't my best since I had a hard time using the tool to create it. I did complete the project and created a stop and think sign that would be helpful to everyone. The project I revised was my website home page. I changed every sentence to something new and the background. I took away some detail about myself since It's only my home page and you'll learn more about me in on the next page. I put the man setting up to run as my background to show what I love to do everyday. The goal of revising my website was to make any adjustments to a certain page on it to make it better. I successfully completed this task with improving my home page with pictures and better wording.

My high point of this course was learning how to use all the tools I did to complete projects. I would've never knew about WIX or Tinkercad without this course. Using those

tools made me want to explore even more

An area of growth for me would be to learn how to teach other people the things I learned. I have a great understanding of some concepts that others would would want to learn but I have a hard time of explaining. A skill I learned this year that I could use outside of this class is patience. With a lot of the tools I used I needed to have patience to complete my work. Having patience is the best skill to have or use anywhere.

An idea I have for next year would be for students to create a 3D model of a object or thing but then bring it to life by making a model of it. Like when I created a 3D model of my iphone online, I would make a clay model of it to display. The #1 tip I owuld give for anybody taking this class next year would be to ask many questions. If you dont ask questions in this class then you might end up getting something wrong or not understanding. The #2 tip would be to always give a quality effort with each assignment. The less effort you show the less of a grade you get which you want the highest grade possible. Tip #3 for anyone taking this class would be to turn in every assignment on time and stay ahead.

Project Statement

I designed my stop and think sign for people who make bad decisions. If I was to put this sign in bad neighborhoods, at lights, corners, etc, it may change the decisions people make. Maybe before somebody is about to rob someone and they see this sign, they may stop and think about what they’re about to do. It took me nearly a week to complete this project since it was hard to use the Pixlr tools. By the time I got it all figured out it was close to due. Throughout this project I realized I have little patience since I got frustrated every time something didn’t look the way I wanted. I wanted to quit and not do the project but I overcame it and finished. For anyone attempting this project don’t use the Pixlr tool, it’s way too complicated. Try and find a simpler one that offers tutorial.

Although, using Pixlr helped me convey my message. By importing the hand and thinking emoji, I was able to get my point across. I used a yellow and blue background to catch people's attention. Using a color that everyone sees all the time, people won’t pay attention to it. But using a color like yellow that’s not usually used on signs people will stop and read my sign. This project has inspired me to keep graphic designing. If I were older doing this project I would put more time and effort into becuase I would have a longer time period to complete it.

In my 3D modelling project for this quarter I chose to design a Iphone 5S. I decided to design this Iphone because it’s my favorite Iphone and first phone I ever had. In order to complete this project I used the website Tinkercad and used numerous tools. I used shapes and colors to create my design. I tried to make curved edges like an actual Iphone on the edges but I left it square because i couldn’t. It was a learning a process and I enjoyed working on my model. I want to get better using the Tinkercad tool and eventually design a car. I advise anyone who wants to create a 3D model to use Tinkercad. It has an extensive tutorial that teaches how to use all the tools.

Website Design

Posted by Elijah Banks in Intro to Design and Multimedia on Tuesday, November 1, 2016 at 1:24 pm
This website that I created was made to let people know a little bit more about me. It took me about 2 weeks to create and I enjoyed making it. I'm not very artistic, so creating a design was a struggle for me but I still came up with something. Hopefully after someone goes onto my page they'll learn something about me and it will inspire them to make a website as well.

Final One Point Perspective

Posted by Elijah Banks in ART 9 - Hertz - e2 on Wednesday, June 8, 2016 at 10:18 am
I run track, golden work ethic.

I’ve been running track from the age of 12, I’ve excelled greatly and will continue to do well. Of course I don’t always get first but even though I still improve and learn from every race. Track has taught me to work for anything I want and nothing will ever be given to me easily. A golden work ethic will create a golden achievement that you will cherish forever. In my drawing it shows the medals I’ve earned from track meets and also shows weights portraying that I use them to work out. On my door there’s a Penn Relays tag I wore on my chest during running.

Electric Art

Posted by Elijah Banks in PHYSICS 1 - Gray - A on Monday, June 6, 2016 at 9:08 am

The goal of this project is to incorporate an item of personal significance as well as an electric circuit run off a battery. I have chosen to light up my track spikes since I have a strong passion for Track & Field and since I can’t light up a whole track I chose an old pair I used to run in. The sculpture I made shows that I have a love for what I do and I am really into it. I’ve been running track for three years now and I intend on getting scholarships from my efforts/achievements. I also hope to run in the Olympics and break the world records for the 100m and 200m dash one day.

Street Art

The meaning of our work was to just decorate the hallway and make it look nice.

 When we looked online for ideas we found Chinese symbols that we thought looked call and wanted to make. 

We chose to put our work next to the Main Office since everyone always pass there. So we wanted to let everyone see our work.

 This project changed my perception of art since it made me realize that a lot of things that I thought wasn't art actually is.

 This project changes my perception of art as I look around the city by seeing a lot of designs that I thought wasn't art but actually is. Art is what you want it to be, you could put a brush by a broom and to you it could have a meaning that nobody else understands.

The Internet&You

Posted by Elijah Banks in TECH 1 - Hertz - e1 on Tuesday, January 19, 2016 at 7:57 am
Slide 1- The word that I put for how my online choices affect me is decisions. Your decisions online will affect what people think of you.

Slide 2- The word that I put for how my online choices will affect others is character. If my character online is rude and mean and I put something like that under someones picture it may make them feel bad about themselves. If my character is happy and nice and I put something positive under someones picture it will make them feel good about themselves.

Slide 3- When your online, you must think before you post and make sure you are doing the right thing.

Social Media Survival Guide

Posted by Elijah Banks in TECH 1 - Hertz - e1 on Thursday, November 12, 2015 at 12:28 pm

Online I appear as someone who runs track for Ballistic Response Athletics. My business or my social life isn’t on there so you wouldn’t know much about me. When people see me on the internet they would perceive me to be younger and slower than I really am because my track information hasn’t been updated.

People love to share stuff online including myself. But when we share stuff we forget to realize that all the followers we have or friends on social media are viewing our post. So we have to watch out for what we post because we don’t know what they could do with our post. But sometimes when people repost stuff on the internet it may be a good thing. So say if you created a funny video that someone thought was funny and they repost it, and others repost it as well. If people keep reposting and liking the video you may become famous off of just doing that.

Sometimes we have a lack of control when we are online and we fail to realize who is viewing our post. So say if you’re applying for a job and your boss wants to check your social media. What are you going to do when he/she finds something inappropriate on there? Which wouldn’t be wrong for them to do since they are trying to get a bigger view on you. So to see how you are when your not on duty.

On the internet we all have entitlement to freedom of speech. But when it comes to trolling we need to learn how to stop and think about the other person. Trolling is when someone takes a picture of someone and creates a meme to make the picture funny. Also it’s when someone posts something and you rudely comment or do something to make them feel bad aboit themselves. We can stop trolling by not reposting the “funny” memes. People think because they post anonymously that its okay. When you post anonymously, of course nobody knows that you didn’t make it but if someone finds out you did it you can end up in some big trouble.

  • DO NOT TROLL

  • BE MATURE

  • BE CAUTIOUS
