Computer



I never tried Abdobe Photoshop and this was my first time learning it. It was interesting and useful program. In this class, I started from the foundation of the photoshop. Then, by using photoshop skill that I learned in class, all the students made web page and it is located at http://www.iisstudents.net/ Moreover, I learned Image Ready and FTP.


In the second semester, I continuously wrote log and typing speed. I made g-mail account for I.I.S. and I began to use documents at this site. I learned a favicon, and multimedia. In my opinion, favicon project was the nicest one.

It was really interesting to learn about Windows Movie Maker, but I failed to make it work. I was not sure what was problem with my video and I was quite depressed. There was also a logo contest which I did not make it, but it was interesting project.
Mr. Sean found out a good site which I can provide rice when I do vocabulary tests. Finally, my last two projects were desktop publishing: making a IIS calender and information about Seoul for foreigners. I had to add some pictures for calender and the photoshop skill was really useful.

This year was my first computer class. I always wanted to take this class, but it always overlapped with other subjects. It was nice experience to learn about computer and how the programs function. I gained some knowledge about it.

AP Studio Art
Chemistry 12
Chemistry class was one of my favorite classes. In this year, I think I learned some new topics about it for instance, naming compund in Latin, titration, acid&base, nucleus, etc. In the beginning, I covered what I learned in 10th grade, but since I could not remember everything from 10th, it was useful for me to review the lessons and learned other new topic
In the class, I took several quizzs and unit tests. Additionally, I did labs and those labs were very interesting. Some experiments were confusing, but overall it they were enjoyable. I personally liked the 'Titration' experiment the most, but there was one experiment that whole class could not make it which was soap. Making a soap was the task, but the liquid was expired, and everyone in class failed to make one. I also liked the atmosphere of the class.
AP Calculus

Sociology
In first semester, I learned about American Government. For second semester, I learned Sociology. In American Government, I get to know about government system and vocabularies which are related to it. American Government was sometimes confusing, but it was interesting subject. I wanted to learn about this subject since I am going to live in the U.S.A.Tuesday, May 27, 2008
English Class
In English class, I did various assignments. The assignments: debate, group project about advertisement, writing assignments about fortune cookie are the most memorable. I put a lot of efforts with Sohpia and Mike in the advertising assignment, and the presentation was unforgettalbe. There were a lot of other assignments beside these. I also read books about Barabbas and The Dwarf, but it was difficult to understand for me.
The English class was very interesting to me. I guess Mr. Bell had a different teaching style and helped the students a lot with editings, etc. So, it was a new experience for me. I gained some new knowledges.
