Progress
So whats my progress been since the proposal completion, in regards to my weekly tasks unfortunatley not much, multiple assignments and blog posting has taken over the last weeks, I haven't done a design specification nor my in depth time plan.
The glimmer of hope comes from the project I chose, Knowing it was a project that would take up the majority of my last year, I wisely chose a project that once past the intial planning I could really enjoy. The last year I have spent a lot of time on self development, but as a hobby, I've spent my time on learning new creative skills, and gathered many creative projects over the time, so not only have I got many resources to aid me, but also I have the passion for the project, something good for such a lengthy project.
In between work, in my breaks I've been filtering through my own resources and collecting more. Some of the books I own, often bought on a spur I've been bookmarking.
Theres quite a bit of bulk, so I won't spend the time posting all of them yet, that would be doing a later task to early.
What I will post are my ideas for monthly editions to the online project magazine.
The sort of content would be, projects, articles into more thoughful issues on the edition topic, links to further reading with suggestions, showing projects done by professionals, recommendations for books, magazines etc. But items to make them think higher and reach out further. I hate childrens multimedia, is so limited, it should be getting children looking at innovative projects, make them philosophize, get them thinking big. Or course still inbetween fun simple projects.
So monthly topics I thinking keen on:
SPACE, further study, maybe how to build a universe or even a simple rocket, links to educational fun explorer games, etc, I'm still thinking on this one.
PAPER AND GRAFETTI, show them what can be done with paper, projects (scrapbooking, origami, branding of notebooks, stickers), templates, links to some stunning paper art, street art/grafetti, such as casestudy on young artists, profiles, the dos and dont's with discussion (on blog), projects on grafetti such as on notebooks, paper for wrapping gifts or for decoration of room, with tutorials.
RECYCLING/ENVIRONMENT, what can we do, the science behind the issue, recycling projects such as (recycling materials into gifts, how to turn items for the bin into new items, turning old socks into cute draw potporri smellies and etc) , casestudys on what over kids have done, awareness campaigns and etc, grow your own pot garden.
SMART SELF(health), health topics with discussion, science between good food, excersizes, food projects such as (make your own packlunch, make the dessert day) brain fitness- ways to make you smarterQuizzes- what type of learner are you, outdoor and indoor activities to work your body and mind.
Thats my ideas so far for the issues, Ill backdate by a couple of months so there is plenty on content. Later ones could be an easter issue, a competition issue (competitive games, physical, online and mind games), a culture issue, a history issue and etc, but I would need resources for teachers and academics, which would take some time yet.
