Digital World Reflection Blog

In the past 5 weeks in digital world we have been learning how to make a augmented reality sandbox. We have been researching how to make a layout for the sandbox and there are 3 groups working on projects in each group there are people assigned to different tasks. The digital group researches about the things you need to run a program to create the augmented reality sandbox. The program used is called linux and acts like a new setup of a software. The people in the digital part had to try and contact different companies and ask for white sand but only a few of them replied but they weren't giving the white sand away for free so a few people were sent to the beach to collect sand for this project and we had to clean it to make sure it was smooth sand so it could be projected onto. We have made tables to hold the sand and a bar above it to hold the kinect sensor and projector. There was only enough sand for 2 groups unfortunately but everyone is able to experience it still. There were problems with the software that we were using so we weren't able to set it up as soon as everything was done.
The good things that happened were the tables were successfully built and we could hang the projector and kinect sensor up without them falling off. We managed to get sand for the project aswell.
The bad things were that we did not have enough sand for every group. We couldnt troubleshoot the problem in time for the presentation day.

Living on the coast is better than living in the mountains



Living on the coast would be better than living in the mountains because if there was a earthquake the mountain rubble could crash on to your house and destroy it but also if your living on the coast there could be a possibility of a flood happening and it would make your house collapse by the force of the water. In Christchurch its safer to live on the coast part because barley any floods happen and it wouldnt be safer to live in the mountains because alot of earthquakes happen. Living on the coast you could have heaps of opportunities to do with your family like go to the beach and go swimming or play volleyball or play with the sand. Living in the mountains you don´t have much stuff to do you could go mountain climbing and biking.

Summer Is The Best Season Of The Year

Summer is the best season because you can do more activities, it is when we take holidays, and because itś good for growing plants.  

Summer is the best season of the year because you have more opportunitesto do stuff like swimming in the hot weather or you could go out on a nice walk or even chill at the beach with some friends. In contrast, taking walks and swimming at the beach would be terrible in thw winter.

Summer is also good for students because they get 3 months of holidays to do whatever they want. They can go on vacation, they can play their consoles all night long and you can go to the beach everyday.

Summer is very good for growing plants because they would get alot of sun to grow and keep healthy. You can grow tomatos, lettuce, cucumber and watermelon.

Summer is by far the best season. This is because we can have more fun and do a lot more stuff, and we get a long break off school, we can grow heaps of plants.
