- On this page, there are links to various goals and outcomes that are aligned with this course. After you watch the DVD, review the lists and pull out 3-5 that you think the movie touched on. Explain how you think the movie represented that attribute. (If you open the skills and attitudes in a separate window, you can easily copy and paste the phrases you select)
- Choose one of the attributes you listed and give an example of how you have represented that attribute in your academic or personal life.
- Generate and conceptualize artistic ideas and work.
- Built shelter with spruce wood/logs
- Carved a mallet head out of a spruce trunk, made a hole in it, and fit a handle to use it as a pounding tool
- Created handles for other tools
- Created a miniature cabin on stilts to store food which prevents animals from getting to it.
- Created hinges for doors
- Provide the opportunity to share the results of the project
- This documentary/video allows us to observe all the things he did in order to survive in the wilderness alone (e.g. building a shelter, prep work, miniature cabin, food sources, building tools, etc).
- Explores Design activity in relation to the concept of sustainability
- Created many things such as shelter and tools out of tree trunks from the resources he had (wood/tree trunks). Refer to #1 to see all the things he made out of the resources he had.
- Spread beach gravel to a depth of several inches over an area roughly 20×20 feet for the base of the miniature cabin
- Front door facing northwest
- Big window facing the big lake
- Articulate how sustainability relates to their lives as community members, workers, and individuals and how their actions impact sustainability.
- When hunting for food, he only caught a small fish because that was all he needed for himself. If he were to catch something big (like a bear or deer), then that would be too much meat for only himself. His actions impact sustainability as if he’s only catching what he needs, it benefits the environment, but if he over-catches, then he negatively impacts the environment.
- The attribute I choose is ‘Explores design activity in relation to the concept of sustainability’. My family and I lived in an apartment with no garden/yard for most of our lives. Recently, we moved into a house with one. In order to be sustainable and save water, we developed a design where we collect rainwater with buckets from the sides of the roof. This allows us to use that water for our plants, vegetables, and grass in our garden/yard.
