My Identity Our Identity the Kenya Classroom

My Identity Our Identity the Kenya Classroom


43 students from my three classes Y9 A M and K took part in this project. I was teaching website designs and I wanted to get some content for my students to work on. When I checked through the projects handbook I settled for this project because my strand was cultures and I found the project matching the demands of my unit. I did not know what I was facing but for sure the experience was good. Said become my co-teacher in my class.

The experience was very enriching since we all discovered our cultures in the class. Some of the students in my class did not know their cultures properly. The project exposed them to know them. Furthermore parents and grandparents were involved as the student had to find out more about themselves. During the parents teacher meetings the parents talked about it.

One of the requirements I gave my students was to learn one culture from the forum. This was very interesting as the students choose different cultures to learn from. At the end the students were able to learn from each others as well as from the forum. The website they made was the talk of the school and the parents were very excited.

To capture it all my students learnt from two teachers myself and Said and they were exposed to opportunity to learn from the class because of the online sharing and to learn from others online as global citizen. I as a teacher learnt a lot on how to intergrate IEARN project to my lesson. It was explorative and engaging something I never thought would happen. I am glad and grateful for the facilitators, thank you for being in my class.

Scheduled Activities

We have now launched our Project which will involve the following.

Look at the resource you have reviewed. Identify a product that you could make from the resource e.g. Tourism, I will develop a package to take tourist to visit fort Jesus

You will use the design cycle to develop a model for you product. The focus will be on the model.

Your Investigate report on recourses will be used as part of the assessment.

Think of how you did the aroma coffee work, It will be something much demanding than that.

That will involve Investigate, Design, Plan, Create and Evaluate.

The time line will be from 4^th June to 24^th June

Design an model that will randomize the number in the sets of 1 2 3 4 1
That is first one number, second two numbers, third three numbers and the last number

9583726353

In the model develop.
20 trials at a go that is trial 1 to trial 20
Use conditional formatting put a condition such that when the wining number appears the cell turns green.
Use the F9 key and try to find out how long you will get the winning number.
Get the print screen of the winning condition.
How will you modify the design to achieve the results faster?
How many trials can fit on a single screen view at size 12 times roman?
Write a brief reflection of the process.

Print out all your work.

TAKE HOME ASSIGNMENTS

Assessment Criterion DESIGN 
You are required to design a model of a toy manufacturing company

The toy uses plastic, metal, glass and paint

The ration of the material is decided by the manufacturer.

The cost of manufacturing one toy is 200 KSH for a toy between 200gms and 500gms

The cost of material is in kg

1 kg of Plastic 400 KSH

1 kg of Metal 1000 KSH

1 kg of Glass 600 KSH

I kg Paint 800 KSH

You can only purchase the material in 1 kg ONLY

If each toy has to weigh between 200 to 500gms and be sold at 500KSH

Design a model that will work out
-the ratios of the materials for the toy
-the combination of materials bought for the toys
-the break even point
Your model should give the BEST mixture ration of the materials
The BEST number of sales that will break even

Print out the spreadsheet and indicate in bold
Ratio
Metal: Plastic: Glass: Paint
Number of Cars Sold
