The Knight

Rapid Prototyping is a Math and Science course. This is unit 2 which is called "Additive", we learned about limits and Riemann Sums as well as the different types of 3D printers and how they work. I am proud of my 3D model because it came out the best out of the other two models. Another reason is it was the fastest to make.

My Letters

This course is about Math and Science, it is called Rapid Prototyping. In the first unit, we learned how to find the distance between two points, we also learned the point -slope formula, and how to determine the interior angles of shapes. Finally we learned how to use a Cameo Machine. This Action Project was a challenge to me because it was hard to get to use the machine with a whole class using two machines at once. Despite having to wait for the Cameo machine, it was fun designing my letters. I am proud of my letters and my power point.

Counting


 This poem is about HIV/AIDS and how it affects people. it also tells you how to help people understand HIV/AIDS and how to prevent it and to inform people of the dangers.

People are counting,
Down to their heart beat.
1...2...3...4
Don’t know if I have it
Do I?
  5...6...7...8
Why did know body tell me
He was up to no good
9...10...11...12
I am counting,
Down to my heart beat
Pray it won’t end,
13...14...15...16
Nobody knows
I won’t tell anybody
Please don’t judge me
17…18…19…20
Slut, stupid
I need to get tested
But I am scared,
Why?
20...21…22…23
Come into my room
“Miss I am sorry to say you are HIV/AIDS positive”
BEEEEEEEEEEEEP
 HIV/AIDS my life is over?
Will I be okay?
Should I tell someone?
I am going to tell everyone.
Help someone.
Make someone happy.
I am counting,
Down to my heart beat.
Down to a new life.
No more shame .
No more questions.
Just HIV/AIDS and me,
And the battle ahead.
NO MORE COUNTING FOR ME.

The purpose of this assignment was to portray how people with HIV/AIDS might feel like, if they found out  that they have Hiv, what they think about and go through. I learned that most of the people that I looked up that had Hiv and had interviews would say similar things about how they felt when they first found out they had Hiv.

Offensive Images

                                              
All over the world there are offensive media images mostly of women. Another problem is women being under paid compared to men. This issue has been around for a long time. For example in Iceland which is the top country to have settled some of woman’s rights problems, where having there in own problems. In 1975 woman stopped working and they all walked out that was 90% of women in Iceland. These women made Iceland come to a standstill. Later women noticed so many changes when they came back later that night and noticed that their husbands where wore out from watching the kids some even bribed there oldest to watch the children too.

Some countries in the world are trying to widen their job in politics and giving there stereotypically male jobs to women.  Norway in the last couple of years 2013 to be specific appointed a female Prime Minister Erna Solberg.  

 40% of seats in the national parliament are held by women in Norway. And gender distribution in Norway among leaders is 35.7% women and 64.3% is men. These number are improving but not even close to being the end of the problem. The gender gap in the work force between the ages of 20 -66 yrs. old is 82 % man a 77% women in Norway. Iceland is also trying to solve the gender equality by making Women’s participation in the labor market. Also today, women make up 47% of the labor force, compared to 38% in 1970. The gap has narrowed but not disappeared, with women earning close to 80% of men's dollar.

   Norway and Iceland are both trying to fix their gender equality problems. Both have some problems in their country but aren’t even close to accomplishing the goal of everyone being equal no matter what gender or anything because anyone who is qualified can do that job too even if there a woman they should get paid the same. Right?  Iceland is the top country trying to solve gender equality problems. Norway has a female prime minister which makes woman look more respectable because it doesn’t have woman in an inappropriate light in social media.

Norway and Iceland are both trying to get their gender equality issues in control. Iceland is the top country to have some of their gender equality issue fixed or better. while Norway made a female prime minister. There are so many statistic that prove this and that show that they have a long way to go to end in this problem.
The purpose of this assignment was to inform people of the offensive media images and how they contribute to women not being paid fairly in the work force. I learn that women went on strike to show men how much they are needed in this world. the challenge was finding statistic in Norway that  I wanted to use. I am proud of the fact that I did this assignment to the best of
my ability.
