Energy Conservation video


  1. The target audience are kids.
  2. The video is trying to tell its audience to use fluorescent light bulbs instead of incandescent bulbs and to turn on the lights only when we need it.
  3. I think the clip is very effective because it presents its message in a fun and interesting way and most kids like cartoons.
  4. It can give more details of the fluorescent bulbs like cost of the light bulb. It can also give more ways for kids to help save energy. 

Energy Conservation video


1. Some machines that are used to harness the energy cannot be put near residential areas. For example, wind turbinesare very big and noisy, so they cannot be put near residential ares.
2. Smaller wind turbines can be made to put near residential areas and the bigger machines can be put further away.
3. There can be advertisements on television to encourage people  to save electricity and water, the government can reward those who make an effort to conserve energy.

3 things I learnt during lesson 1

sectional view drawing
1) I learnt more about 5 different types of drawings:
           1.isometric projection
           2.first-angle orthographic projection
           3.exploded views
           4.oblique drawings
           5.sectional views
2) I learnt that a drawing does not have to be very good in order to convey your message.
3) I learnt that sketching alone is not enough because there may be hidden parts that cannot shown using simple sketches.
