I have learned about legislative procedures and how bills are passed. I also learnt how things are made legal and illegal, and what factors affect such decisions. I also learned about the pros and cons of marijuana in detail and how making it legal would hinder the equilibrium of our society.
I have developed a lot of new skills through my personal project journey. I learned advanced editing skills such as motion tracking, colour correction, syncing multiple sequences with each other. I also learned a few film techniques while shooting, and how different camera angles and shots can administer the viewers’ moods .
I have developed my ATL skills throughout this whole personal project journey. The ATL skills I developed were; research and media literacy for my learning goal, and communication and collaboration for my product goal.
My personal project journey has helped me develop qualities that are valued by the IB learner profile. I inquired about a controversial topic. This involved some level of risk-taking as well, since the topic of my personal project was investigating on the drug. The research and learning about media literacy made me more knowledgeable about the need of discretion to put sensitive information on internet, and also made me strive to make other people more open-minded. I also communicated with people from different backgrounds, and allowed me to evaluate the arguments from both sides of the spectrum and come to a balanced conclusion.
