I have challenged myself try a fun project that has encouraged me to reflect, capture moments, and think deeper about who I am as a person. Part of this project consisted of looking back at the photos I have captured in the last few months and deciding what these photos tell about me. I wanted to think about not only who am I professionally, but personally as well. 1. I am a teacher- I take pride in my classroom. 2. I am an innovator- I have learned to look more deeply at building, making, and creating. 3. I am a family person- They shaped me into the person I have become. 4. I am a workout partner- I relieve stress and channel positive energy through physical activity. 5. I am a friend- I work hard on maintaining the relationships I have built. 6. I am an outdoorsy person- I love sunshine and good times. I think about how most of my pictures and experiences are very playful. This reminded me of the reading Lifelong Kindergarten. As humans playfully work together, they learn about the creative process. We learn how to try out new ideas, experiment, get feedback, and create new ideas based on all of our experiences. The innovation process does not just involve maker kits, technology, or circuits. It is also something we do in our daily lives. Each day consists of new opportunities to create happiness and memories. This project has truly made me think about my life and what I am able to learn in just a short amount of time. Below I have included my artistic creation of these last few months and the images that followed me along the way. References: Resnick, M. (2017).
