Using Cardboard, Hot glue, cardboard scissors. normal scissors, markers, I created a really cool jellyfish because I got a really cool inspo picture and wanted to try to make something along the lines of it. All my friends are doing the tv so i wanted to stand out. Jellyfish aren't all the same so i could basically go rodge and still have it look good. For further context this project used a lot of Cardboard and hot glue.
During this process, I learned that choosing a jellyfish was not going to be as easy as i thought. I found out that jellyfish have like no mouth. They also have 1200 tentacles, No way i was gonna be able to do that many. Learning was a big part of this process even if i didn't notice it back then, Now i see we learned a lot while having fun.
The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project ties to Empowered learner because I made decisions for myself, i was a Global Collaborator because i shared my website with the worlds, I was a Innovative designer because i had prototypes. Being a Empowered learner isn't just about making decisions for myself there's also the part reflecting on my own education.
A challenge I overcame on this project was hand cramps when cutting all of the stingers and tiny bits of cardboard for the outside. Another challenge, was when i had to get up to get more hot glue which was pretty frustrating having to stop my flow state to grab more.I was able to do it by taking a break and letting my hand rest. The hard part was when i was getting the cramps making myself take a break. i really like getting things done so me making myself take a break when we only had a little bit of time left was a struggle.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change the face and me focusing. The reason why I would change it is because i would've liked to do a baby jellyfish with the big one, That way the bigger jellyfish wouldn't be lonely. Focusing is kinda hard for me if i'm not in a flow state or trance, so not focusing was pretty hard. i would change focusing by working farther away from everyone.

My project connects to careers in Junior Graphic Designer/Multimedia Specialist because it is about taking videos and pictures of cultures while also creating ideas on new trends. My jellyfish was a creative idea which is what they are looking for. They also neede soemone who can edit and uplaod. My project taught me all those skills.
