My awareness of Coast Salish Art in our community changed. I learned that Coast Salish Art has deeper meaning behind it, that the shapes aren’t just placed at random and that there is a reason for where each shape is placed. I learned that crescents can be used for beaks and claws, that circles can be used for joints and eyes, trigons can be used for wings and U-forms can be used for tails. I find it very meaningful how not only does each shape have  meaning, but so do the animals. Creating my own drawing of Coast Salish Art made me appreciate the design process that goes into the making of each animal artwork.

Assignment 6B Information Fluency Paragraph

My paragraph:

In my columns, I wrote about baking. I learned that when you are measuring liquids, you need a measuring cup that has a spout. Sometimes, it can be hard to pour liquids without spilling if you don’t have a spout and precise measurements will ensure that the results are reliable. It’s best to try  and make measurements very specific, so that there is a lower chance of messing up the recipe. Sifting flour will help break down lumps, if you don’t sift your flour you will end up with too much flour. If you dip your cup strait into the flour  it can easily compact it for you and will leave you with drier baked goods, using a knife to flatten flour with ensure precise measurements. It is simple, quick and satisfying method that is very efficient. If you don’t know how to bake, it is not a huge problem because you can always follow the recipe.

 

AI Generated Paragraph:

For successful baking, accuracy is key. Ensure precise measurements with the right tools and use fresh ingredients for optimal flavor. Allow ingredients to reach room temperature before mixing to ensure even incorporation. Preheat the oven and use the recommended pan size and type for the recipe. Proper mixing technique, including sifting dry ingredients, is crucial for texture and consistency. Don’t overfill pans, and position them in the center of the oven for even baking. Finally, allow baked goods to cool completely on a wire rack before serving. With attention to these tips, your baking endeavors are sure to yield delicious results.

Reflection questions:

What was your experience in using AI?
This was my first experience using AI, so I was surprised how quick and easy AI responded. It easily answered what I asked for and I didn’t need to do any of the work, it just wrote it all for me. However, I didn’t like the fact that I needed to add a little more specific information to get better results. Over all it did exactly what I asked it to do
Was the paragraph the AI generated accurate? Fact-check any new information and see if it’s true.
After reviewing the paragraph, I found that most of it was accurate. The information from AI was similar to the information that I had.
Was the exercise useful? How can this help you with your learning going forward?
Yes, this exercise was useful because it exposed more to AI  and it made me realize just how accurate AI can be when given specific instructions.
Were your results expected? Yes or No? Explain.
Yes, my results were expected because, AI makes it very easy for you to receive the information you need.
I have also heard other people mention things about AI and how it can be used for cheating, so I thought it would generally have good information.

 

Break the Fake -Did Walt Disney really want to ‘kill goofy’? Viral rumor that shook the internet

  1. After searching for some current news, I found an article that was published not too long ago. I found this article on a website called “SK POP”, where it talked about how Walt Disney didn’t truly want to kill Goofy and there was no actual proof of any notes written left behind.

2. To verify how trustworthy “SK POP” is, I searched their name up on google. I found out that they have several different social media accounts that are verified. 

3. Then I went onto Snopes.com to check if I could really trust this information. To my surprise “SKPOP” was right and Snopes verified that any rumors about Walt Disney leaving any notes left behind about Goofy were incorrect. 

4. Lastly, I double-checked by searching on Google and found several other articles claiming the same things as “SK POP”. 

5. I realized that after all the trusted sources I looked at, that it is most likely that the rumors going on about killing Goofy are false.
