Interview

I had are some problems while I was working on my project. One of the main problems were that I have in my project is my product. After I have made the product I proceeded to the next stage, which was testing the robot. But when I tested it on the Robotics track it couldn’t read the black line. So I had to find out what the problem was with my robot. It took me about 1 week to find the problem.  First, I checked the electronic circuit by using the DMM (Digital Multi Tester). Then, if I found something wrong I would write down. I solved the problem by replacing the component with a new one and I connected it slowly, so that it would not be damaged. Though there were some problems with my product, I think I have done the best I could with my product because I am very interested in robotics and I like it when I can create new things. I enjoyed spending most of my time making the product. I also have some experience in robotics, which made it easier to make the product. The thing that I have not done so well is my oral task. It is because I spend little time doing it and I don’t concentrate when I am doing it.  I would choose the same topic again for my project because I enjoy robotics and I am involved in competitions at a National level. I really like robotics and I spend most of my day both making and playing with robotics. When I did something about robotics I felt happy and I enjoy doing it.

I will prepare for questions 1,3,4 by:

1. First, I will write the Important point on a small piece of paper

2. Then I will read it until I memories.

3. Last, I will record my voice to improve my pronunciation

I predict my grade will be 6.

Week5-Application

	Week 5- Application May 2nd- 6th	Teacher Notes

Reflection On Week 1-5

During the past 5 week I have created 2 task on my topic, BEAM Robot. First I researched using the net and found an article that provided background information to help my understanding of the issue related to BEAM Robot.

With this information I created a summary on the topic and posted this on my blog page. This helped my understanding and provided me with information to move to the next stage on blooms.

During the comprehension stage I created my second task post photos and embed a visual snapshot to show the audience my understanding of the topic. We were asked to record our summaries as a video and embed the file into our blog page to demonstrate our oral language skills and ability to master intonation and expression. I found this difficult to do at first but Bibil was able to assist us and I was pleased with the final product.

Now I am preparing for the next stage of blooms "application" and I am deciding how I will design my next task that could include; an interview, a simulation, a presentation using IT tools and illustration.

It's time for me now to plan my next task so please check my blog on friday and pst a comment.

So that people will be able to understand easier about BEAM robots.

Nowadays, BEAM robots is one of the most popular types of robots. BEAM stands for iology, Electronics, Aesthetics, and Mechanic. BEAM robots is also one of the simplest robots. I have find an article from knol.google.com. This article is about BEAM robots. It talks more about the different types of BEAM robots. Most of the people that read this article is the one that want to know and learn about BEAM robots. This article was made so that people would understand easier about the different types of BEAM robots. By reading this article we could know what BEAM robots is and we will know many different types of beam robots. In this article they talk about Mechanism and principles, Micro controllers, Types, General, the last is Application and current progress.

Romeo and Juliet Journal

Week 1

In the first week there are 3 English lessons. The first and the second lesson that is on Monday and Wednesday I don’t come to school because I’m sick. So on Friday my friend told me that there are English project. My friend told me our project is to make a drama about Romeo and Juliet. My teams are Marcel, Aziz, Nahyeon, Abigail and Henry. Abigail is our team leader. We decided to use traditional version. Our theme is romance. On Friday Abigail with Nahyeon give work to Henry, Aziz, Henry, and myself. All of us will edit the script. Each people are given one Act. Except Marcel and I. Marcel and I do on act3 together. We have to write the script in the Microsoft word and cut the sentence that is not needed. Marcel decided to do on act 1 scene 1 and I decided to do on act 3 scenes 5. Act 3 scenes 3 I’ll do it together with Marcel.

Week 2

On the second week I write the script in the Microsoft word. On Monday I only spend time to write the script. On Tuesday and Wednesday I spend time to edit my script. Until now it has not finish. I’m the only team member that has not done the script editing. Actually, I don’t understand at all what are they saying in the script. I don’t understand many English words in the script. All of my team members are doing well. They are working very hard especially Nahyeon and Abigail. Now I will continue to edit my script.

Because I want to know more details about war and what to do in a war.

Mother tongue day

Mother tongue day is the day where people celebrate their mother tongue language. I will celebrate my Mother Tongue day in my school, Sinarmas World Academy, My mother tongue language is Bahasa Indonesia. This events is so fun, we can know other country's culture. I learn many things from this events. I saw people from Kalimantan, I was shocked when I saw her. Her ears was so longgg!!!!!..... This is the following continent that will be celebrate:

Tuesday- Asia
Wednesday-Europe
Thursday-Oceania
Friday-America

Robots

Robot is one of my hobby. I have studied about Robotics for 5 years, since I was in Grade 6. I find learning about Robotics interesting. Anyone interested in learning about Robotics? If you are interested you can go to Sari Robotics Learning Centre. Sari is one of the robotics learning centre in Jakarta. Please E-mail me back if you want more details about Sari. I've join some of the competition in Indonesia and Singapore. This is one of the best robots I've ever seen:

Soccer

Heyyy, anyone like to play soccer? My favorite soccer team is Barcelona. They played so well against Real Madrid last season. This is the photo of their team:

first row from left= Lionel Messi, Daniel Alves, Xavi Hernandez, Iniesta, Carlos Puyol
second row from left= Thierry Henry, Abidal, Pique, Marquez, Samuel Eto, Victor Valdes

Welcome

Hi, My name is Kibin. I'm learning in Sinarmas World Academy. I am in grade 10. My hobby is playing soccer, and I'm interested in robotics. I have 4 little bothers and they stay in Kelapa Gading, but I live in Serpong.
