Website Development Progress

This is a photograph of my "Coding is Cool" website.

Coding is Cool!

The skills that I learnt in this sequence of lessons includes my improvement within HTML codes, such as <p> (paragraph/text), h1,h2,h3 (headings) and section (gives you a box, to section off information) etc. Along with being able to know more about CSS codes, which allows you to enhance the information that you present in your website, such as font colours/sizes, background layout and so much more. 

I could use theses skills again, if I were to create future websites or games, within my journey in Digital Technology. I could also use these skills if I'd like to improve/enhance my skills within coding.

Social Responsibility - Jedi Dodgeball

Social Responsibility

What is Social Responsibility? 

Making responsible decisions  towards behaviour and involvement, such as Attitudes , Values, Responsible Decisons. 

Jedi Dodgeball:

Within the game that we had played on Monday the 15th of October 2018, I found myself as a level 3/4 because I showed “Self-Responsibility” and “Caring”, which is:

• Showing Respect
• Making good choices
• Honest and Fair
• Works with everyone in the class willingly
• Askes and provides assistance to teacher and other students. 

Meaning that I was able to show everything of the above during the sport, along with developing my skills which are Self-Management.

For next lesson/practical I’d like to be able to participate more within the game we had played today, and for more games yet to come! I’d like to be able to work a little bit more with my peers around me!

Highlight of my Holiday

The highlight of my holiday was the YWCA Camp that I had participated in during the first 3 days of the holidays (Tuesday the 2rd - Thursday the 4th). Which is where we met other young girls around the age of 13/14/15 within four other schools, along with doing activities to get to know each other and even ourselves, and being able to be more confident in yourself.

Ways I can make sure I can get the most out of 2018! 

Make sure that I achieve all my goals that I have set for myself. Along with improving some of my skills within all the subjects I take! Along with becoming more confident with myself. I’d also like to take every opportunity that is given to me so that I am able to make the most of 2018.

UDHR Inquiry - Paige Paraha

UDHR Inquiry

The unit is about Human Rights. It is about the individual rights, everyone person has, along with the 30
rules/laws/rights we are given, equally, made by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
I chose Article 20, because I thought of it being more interesting to learn more about, learning about
both the positive and negative actions that are related to this article. It means that everyone has equal
rights of being able to belong to a peaceful society, people around me like my friends, family, and even
myself to not be forced and/or “tricked” into doing things they don't want to do or join, such as a a gang,
group (cliques) etc. The effect it has on society, is that everyone is given the right to assembly and
association. Such as given the right to participate, or with hold a protest against anyone within reason to
make this world a better place for every individual person, but at the same time protests can be turned
down, and end up having innocent people thrown into jail.

E.g (Positive/Successful Protest)

White Ribbon is a protest that is held in New Zealand every year, against abuse caused by men toward
women. This is a very successful protest that is held.

Be given a law where protests, strikes, etc can be held in a peaceful way and/or assemblies and/or
associations, so they are given their rights, without them being breached or taken away from them.
