Mavis Samoan Language week

My Explanation

The internet. The thriving source of the modern era. Is it the way that google flickers from colour to colour that lures us to use it everyday? Is it the way social network programs entice us into becoming addictive to speaking with other people online? We need to face the facts, close the books for a while and flick through the tabs and realise we need internet...well Wi-Fi.

Right now I am using google doc’s. Main word Google. I mean google functions much more easily. I live,breathe and use google everyday of my life. Yeah, I get it. “Go to the freakin’ library!” Really? That’s all you got? But seriously I can’t imagine myself picking up a non-fictional book dragging the page across the cover just like the hour hand across the clock. Think about it are you really ready to terrorize nature just for paper? Using google gives us an advantage to learn better if you want evidence why don’t you consider the fact that I am here using a programme set up by Google

It gives us the power to connect with each other over sea's and it does save us the awkward Romeo and Juliet moment when we send each other letters. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter,Viber Gmail and all the other social networking programs online, it lets us communicate more openly with family and friends anywhere any time ( that we have available).  Focus on the fact that we need privacy. We grow closer by the day as we communicate more constantly everyday.

I aspire to be a film producer or a film set designer or even a news reporter. Being able to access the internet is like an open window to the door. I mean what I can do and my skills and be given to the world to see maybe someone will give me tips. The internet promotes our talent whether it be singing,acting or

short film making it goes everywhere and your probably thinking what about the bad stuff? Don’t blame the internet for what you put up... for what other people put up. It shows people our true talents whether it be in our country or all over the world.

We all need wi-fi to communicate,study and share. It may infect us with an addiction of checking our facebook everyday to see if we got any messages from anyone it connects us with people out there. It gives us opportunities that a book could never had given us. I don’t know if you’ve realised it yet but we can’t live without wi-fi.

Without Wi-Fi...

I had to decide what I couldn't live without me and a few other students realised without wi-fi we wouldn't have any access to world-wide resources or I wouldn't be able to blog this post.

The Hashtag Original eyes means seeing with your own eyes not with what other people see because their not the only one with an opinion

Mavis - Explanation Craft.

For writing for the past few days my class and I have all been crafting our on Explanation's on how to be good discoverer. We all have our different opinions but hear me out.

Curiosity, like humans was born and has evolved over the topic of discovery ,the need to know why we exist but to be honest...What are we studying?Is it the bacteria behind chemicals? The growth of flowers ?How fast it would take before a country would reach full capacity to house more people?Or is it the source behind global warming?...Or how to end it. Questions asked answers searched. We are blind to what we want to search ourselves. Where is the independence? Curiosity drives us to take hold of the reigns it gives us power to discover what we as an individual want to believe in.Being a good scientist means observing behaviour around them, having your ears close to the ground having your eyes wide open to the possibility of failure and ongoing discovery.This is what I think makes a good discoverer.

A good discoverer must have the burning sensation in their heart when they discover something new, the anxiety to retrieve answers in a matter of seconds...All in all you must be passionate about what you are doing, you must be driven. Without motivation where would we get our energy? Where do we  get our inspiration from?  Being passionate means having a reason to keep going if you are passionate you will see that you’ll have to move forwards with your current evidence.Yeah it’s not typically needed but neither is lab coat so why is it so needed to have material but not heart? Where is the fault in that ?

Focus. The thing that gives us a wake up call. Yes sacrifice is important but each discovery has a path without focus we leave that path without even realising it. This means that we must keep on track keep a clear vision on your study.  Sometimes you might think

Having evidence is a strong foundation for your studies that you want to prove to other people that  they are true. It gives you power of correction I  guess but finding true evidence is what matters.  Having a project without evidence is like a broken pencil the body is there but where’s the point? If you have evidence your studies will help someone one day.

All the above aren't just random words organised they hold meaning they hold what I think makes a good discoverer. Passion is what drives us to make sacrifices that we have to make in order to find better and stronger evidence.The world needs people who can be a good discoverer...The questions is though, will you be that discoverer?

Cybersmart - Whanaungatanga

For Cybersmart this week we had to use signs and symbols to represents how we could use a school value while online. The value I chose was  Whanaungatanga which means "Building Relationships". I thought of the Facebook online chat bar where you connect more deeply with friends outside of school. It represents building a connection online and offline. In the middle of the shield if a piece sign with 3 social networking sites that I know my friends use daily, giving them the opportunity to communicate, like and share photo's.  This all represents Whanaungatanga .
