A Piece of The Puzzle

Image
For my last Action Project in one of the most interesting classes I’ve taken at my school called econ, we had to create an eighth chapter or what would have been the eighth chapter to Kate Raworth’s “Doughnut Economics”. Before doing this we read the first two chapters of the book then our class split into five groups to read and present a chapter. After hearing about everyone’s chapters we made our own. In my eighth chapter, I talk about working and retirement because I am very interested in what I am going to do in my years after high school.                                               People do not want to work at a place they are not enjoying and happy. Unhappiness leads to people leaving their jobs to work somewhere they would want to stay and retire. It’s just like a puzzle. The puzzle isn’t complete until you have the pieces in the right place. It wouldn’t mak...

The Coded Bots We Talk To

 For my last Action Project in Computer Science, we learned many new techniques in coding which we can use to put into our codes. For this project, we had to be a chatbot and interact with the user by asking questions. Below you will be able to interact with the chatbot I have created to answer questions and introduce yourself.    After finishing this code and correcting the mistakes I made I realized that coding is not as complicated as it seems at first. You have to practice and it gets more simple as you do it. Before doing this code I was not confident in my ability to complete everything on the rubric for the project but after creating a draft and getting feedback from a couple of people I was able to finish off my project strong and I knew exactly what I had to do after. When first starting, I was not interested to make a chatbot but once I knew what I was doing it became fun, and didn't feel like work. I also had a long time to do this code so it didn't feel rush...

Answering The Question That Is Still Not Answered

  For my second unit in journalism, we looked into many things including photos from throughout the 20 and 21st century, different techniques on how to take photos, how to analyze a photo with the questions Who, What, Where, When, Why, How, Ect. For our second Action Project for journalism, we had to answer one question, “What is the meaning of life?” To get a better understanding we had to also interview someone and ask them the same question I am answering. Then, we had to take a picture of our interviewee or something of theirs. Before doing my interview I wanted to try to answer the question myself. I have seen many people in different fields and areas of life answer this questions but I never got the answer I was looking for. I believe that there are a couple of answers to this question, and many people would say there is no answer to this question. “Man’s search for meaning is the primary motivation of his life” and “Concern about a meaning of life is the truest expression of...
