Bikelangelo For this AP we learned about bikes and how to design a better bike. We visited several bike shops and even got to ready some for shipping. We really explored how to design and prototype. Dyson came and taught us how to make a model. We learned a lot about how to empathize and designed a bike for someone else. We had to put ourselves in their shoes. This allowed us to be more confident in our designs.

over 99% of women have been cat called and that isn't how the world is supposed to be. In this unit we explored changing the world with art. We visited memorials and discussed what makes something effective rhetorically. There hasn't been many consequences for cat callers.I want to connect coniquences with those who catcall. This topic is sort of brushed off as something that happens to every woman and is therefore normal. It should not be that way. Cat calling shouldn't be so common in today's society. Those who do it are often frowned upon but since it is often a stranger, nothing happens. I want to show men how women feel about those who do it and I want to connect societal judgement as a consequence. Women get told horrible things on the street. It can be scary and why should we let women be scared? What is stopping men from standing up for women? Why do so many just turn the other way when they see this happening? It is truly disgusting. This has been going on...

I have been learning ASL at school. This project shows what I have learned in this semester. I video called with ASL interpreters and communicated with those who are also learning. ASL is something I really enjoy and practicing conversational signs was very fun. I think my pet cat likes my signing too.
