Portfolio Project 2008
Title of Project: International Interview Project
Semester Created: 2nd
Time it took to complete: more than one month
Group work or individual: Group work
My favorite part of this project was to interview a person from other country. Because I never interview a person before, this is my first time. This is interested to me.
The least favorite part of this project that was before interview. Each person in our group was assigned two topics to research. I was researching Education and Housing. Education was the most focus. During this research, I find out many informations about that country.
Some skills that I learned was how to work in a team. Even thought each person in the team have different topic to work on. But those topics were all about the same country. At the end we have to shared informations that we have to each other to complete this project. So we helping each other.
If I do this project again, I think I will focus on other topic instead of the one I was doing. That's more interested to me.
Yes, I think the teacher should assign this project again, because this project was interesting. Also we learned about the country that we assign to interview and how to work in a team.
Title of Project: Money is Dream?
Semester Created: 1st
Time it took to complete: almost a month
Group work or individual: individual
My favorite part of this project was to read a book about African American family's dream. This book contains theme fo money, family, dream, and frustrated. This seems like many immigrants family, they all have a dream in American even me.
Some skills that I learned was money can't buy dream even thought it would help on your dream. But in the same time you have your family that will support you, that's something money can't help you.
I think the teacher should assign this project again. Because this is a good book. This book it's valuable to many of us that we can learn how other people's life under their American dream.
Title of Project: The Day of Dead

It couldn't said what's my favorite part about this project. Because this project was a sad memory writting assignment. This project was about the day that someone you know that were died.
Writing an essay about this project make me think of my grandfather. When he gone, all of my family members were so sad and cry. And that's my first time seen my eldest cry in front of me.
Also this project make me remember of how nice my grandfather is. He always smile and hug me when he came back for visit. Grandfather was working far away from us by himself. In my memory, he came home a fews time during a year.
