This week for endersession we did a lot of painting and a little bit of deconstruction primarily. In Andrew's room we put a shelf next to the laser cutter and large drill press for holding little bits and bobs that are handy to have around without interfering with the laser cutter computer table. In Margaret's classroom, we took down some of the large shelves in hers and Sapna's rooms and filled in holes all along the walls so that they could be easily painted over. After that, Jensen and I cleaned, primed and painted the wall with the projector screen on it and painted small patches where shelves had ripped off paint or just hadn't been painted at all.
TPOL Questions
1) What I have learned from endersession is how to conduct myself more or less independently in multiple different workspaces so that the teachers don't have to micromanage every little element of the work that we do. I've developed this skill by working in classrooms for teachers who can't be present all that often but want the job to get done right without having to babysit the workers and this is really applicable to real jobs and college in the future because you won't have a professor breathing down your neck and you won't have an employer holding your hand every step of the way.
2) I would say the thing I'm most proud of during my high school career would either have to be my junior year where I took honors in all my classes and pushed myself really hard to produce the best products I could for my teachers or the RTN project this semester because it was really ambitious and I feel like we all learned a lot of valuable lessons/skills over the course of these couple months.
