My Final Inquiry went very well I think this was because it was a topic that i was very interested in.
The Kotahitanga Inquiry was really useful as it taught me a lot more about the topic of subsistence survival and survival in the NZ bush.
One of the biggest challenges I faced during this inquiry was filming the documentary, but I think it helped me because i learned and developed my filming and video editing skills.
One of my goals was to honour the legacy of the inquiry programme by working on this goal it helped me to improve my learning because i was working very hard to make my last inquiry a good one. Next time I will try and designing a more specific solution to this problem as the current inquiry template didn't really work for this inquiry.
Evidence of Term 3 goals being met.
6E. A great finish to your Inquiry Journey Tom. The video was interesting and you could see how much you invested into the topic. Your PMI is interesting and with the younger generation youtube is a great examples of how people can learn older or more obscure knowledge in our modern society. You have made something that can be passed down now to future generations as an example of what can be done to survive in the bush and hopefully inspire future students to give bush survival a go. Well done!
Commitment and work ethic in my inquiry's.
