Micro Project 2

When I first came to this Art Education class, I took the shuttle from University Village to Fisher Union. It took me about ten minutes to get there. Then I noticed that on my map, Ohio Stadium is on the right side of Fisher Union. So I turned right and walked along, after half minute, I saw Ohio Stadium since it is so tall and easy to catch. I just walked towards it, meanwhile, I kept looking at my watch, because I did not want to be late for my first class. As I got closer to it, I noticed that, there are so many gates on Ohio Stadium that I could not figure out which one I should enter. The map did not tell me, either. As a result, I was nervous about that because it is so big, I was afraid that I had to walk around it to find the right gate! Fortunately, when I walked around it for just a quarter, I found the gate on which it said: For class Art Education 2520, enter here. I remembered it was 11 o’clock and I would not be late, I was very happy. In my opinion, finding out the location of my classroom is different from finding it on the universal map. Specifically, the map is not detailed enough for me to find the location exactly. For example, it did not tell me the exact distance between the two buildings, so I cannot be sure how much time I will spend. Secondly, the building on the map is not vivid enough for me to figure it out immediately, as result I have to find the sign of the building to make sure it is the building that I am looking for.

Here is the experience about my first time to come here.

Actually, this project is interesting and meaningful since I can really learn something during the process. To be more specific, I learn something useful about photoshop. I never use it before, and I just know that it is a useful tool to modify pictures. However, I do not know it is a little complex. I need to add many layers to describe different processes. For example, I put the map that search from google on the first layer, and then put the pictures I took on the next layers which can make the whole picture looks more beautiful and clear. Besides learning from photoshop，i also learn to using picture to document my life. It is an amazing process, which makes my memory more vivid and impressing. I love this feeling. When I took the picture to note my way to the classroom, I just feel all the things are beautiful, especially the gate of the Ohio Stadium. When I took the picture for it, I just clearly remember what happened the day I first here. I found the gate finally and happily. So as for this project, I really use my heart to finish it and I love this activity.
