Human of Cambodia

 

We are the Humans of Cambodia, a group of nine students. Our purpose is to share with people around the world about Cambodian culture and Cambodian personal story. Also, we want to attract people’s minds to read about the Cambodian people’s daily lives. In the first three weeks we learn about how to be a good photographer and a good interviewer. When we go to interview people we ask them for permission to interview and taking photos to put on our blog. We should not go behind and ask for permission because that person will feel shock, so he or she won’t let us interview. Our goal, we want that person to feel comfortable and think like we are their friend, so it is easy for us to get more interesting information. Some common questions that we ask like: What is the happiest time in your life? What is your saddest time in your life? What you like about this country? and What is your biggest challenge?.

When we come back from an interview we listen to the audio and write down the interesting part what that person said and choose the best photo. My row is a blog designer and organizer. Normally when someone finished transcript caption, check the grammar and choose the right photo I will put that into Humans of Cambodia blog.

Dragonsitter Disasters Book

So in our literacy class, we divided into a small reading group and my team was reading the book called Dragonsitter Disasters Book. I enjoyed reading this book a lot with my teacher and friends. Moreover, my reading,  vocabulary, comprehension check was highly improving. One of my favorite part of this book was to learn about the dragon habit and all of the conflicts that the dragon-faced from one chapter to another.   

Creative Writing

A million years ago there was a female seahorse named Rapunzel. She was 68 years old. She was swimming in a deep ocean at the bright morning to find the food to eat like a normal day. The ocean was really bright and colorful and the beautiful colors glowed from the coral reef. When Rapunzel came out she saw a school of fish around there that made the ocean shine brightly. She saw many things like coral reefs, starfishes and sponges. But one day, when she came to find food like a normal day, along the way it seemed like there were no more organisms left in the ocean. She tried and tried to find food all day long but there was a scarcity of food. Even the small shrimp that were the main food for her were also gone. She thought in her mind and wondered what had happened to this ocean. Then she shouted out loud to the ocean: “why are there no more organisms left in here?” She shouted 2-3 times, then she stopped. She went to sleep in a cave with a sad face. When Rapunzel woke up, she swam to the surface of the ocean. Then she felt something moving nearby her and a gigantic dinosaur (which was a T-rex) popped up from the ocean with a loud screaming sound. When Rapunzel saw the T-rex, she stared at the dinosaur with a shocked emotion for a moment. She quickly swam to the cave that was under the ocean. Luckily that dinosaur didn’t see her, so she could escape from the T-rex easily. Now Rapunzel was really hungry because she hadn’t had food to eat for two days already. After a few hours, Rapunzel came out from the cave and went to find food with a careful move. She found a little shrimp stuck in a small hole and she picked it up and ate it quickly. Rapunzel went back to the cave and had a sleep; she dreamed about the T-rex again, and it was trying to catch her to eat. Rapunzel tried and tried to run away from the T-rex and finally she made it. She started to look around  her, but everything was just dark and quiet. Suddenly that T-rex just came up behind her and slowly got ready to eat her. She faced backwards and shouted loudly, then she woke up with a startled emotion. Rapunzel felt really scared, but she tried to calm down and swam to the surface of the ocean. ”Today the sky is really bright and there is a great smell of flowers around here that just bloomed last night,” she said. Immediately the ocean just shook stronger and stronger and the whole ocean started to spin like a tsunami disaster. The T-rex also got pulled down into that hole with Rapunzel. Then a bright light shone from the ocean and the ocean exploded with a strange loud song. Finally the T-rex and Rapunzel transformed to the strange animal that had never existed on Earth before. It had Rapunzel’s body and the head of the T-rex. People called this strange animal Searex and it never died of  natural causes, only if someone got the Gnohtgnem stone from Searex’s heart.

 

Leadership

In leadership we had learned and has some research about electricity we learn that the electricity that it help the people in Cambodia also it very dangerous to people mostly the kids because the kids like to play with iron. When they put that stuff with electricity it will shock them also the water can not be with electricity too. After we had understood the electricity we make a lesson to teach the student at the rural area. We had to trip to Ta keo to teach the student at Green Umbrella and we get some experience to teach the kid about this electricity problem. Also we went to Kampot to teach the student too. In this class we focus on electricity but we had a trip to some province to teach them because we want to get experiment with how to be the leader. Leadership if represent to the people that are the leader so we can understand how hard it is to be the leader. Electricity is one of the biggest problem that Cambodia facing with so we decide to teach the kid about electricity and share some experiment with them. Teaching is not just giving knowledge but it also help us to become and strongly at leadership. leadership teaching

Ring A Bell

As a part of our literacy class, we had a lesson about the idioms. Because we are a second English learner we didn’t know much about the idioms. So I found out that this lesson was really crucial to the ability of my English. I learned so much from different idioms that all the students involved with the project. It was really easy to understand from the drawing and a small description from each idiom.  

Recycle newspaper

For our, after-school extension, we had created a simple product where it can protect the socket at the wall. So whenever there is rain or someone accidentally spill the water over it can protect us from the electrical problem.  We built this protection case from different recycled newspaper, cardboard and more. 

VIP Master Plan

→ Blender

In VIP Master Plan we had been make a 3D model that use blender to make an 3D building and print it in the 3D printer. On Monday to Thursday at 12:45pm to 2pm it is the time to learned Blender after that is VIP Master Plan Exploration. Blender is a free software that use to design animation 3D objects such as building, cup, vase, robot and so on. In the beginning of the Blender class out teacher tell us to install the Blender program and the version that I use is 2.75. After everyone have Blender installing we started to learned the basic of blender like making the table, cup, chair and small house.

→ 3D Model

In the last seven weeks we have been working on this VIP room. Do you know what is it for? Let me tell you. This project is called Liger model that show the 3D map of Liger campus. All the building that we have on this model were made in Blender. Blender is the free software that help to design 3D objects and animation.

So here is the example of the design that we made when we learn the basic of blender, like 3D cup, table, chair, and simple house. After learning the basic of Blender for a few weeks we started to design the buildings in Liger. I have made new senior campus and STEAM, which stand for SCIENCE TECHNOLOGY ENGINEERING ART and MATH. The difficult thing about designing  STEAM model is the roof because it’s kind of mixed shape that meet each other.

On every building on the board, there is a number label on it. The number represent the building on the key.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I Go To An Unusual School

Name:Mengthong

English writing

I go to unusual school. This school is called Liger Learning Center (LLC). LLC is located in a suburb of Phnom Penh. In Liger there are 50 students that were selected from many provinces. In Liger almost all students the are boarding students. LLC has many different types subjects such as Khmer, Literacy, Math, Science and Explorations. Exploration is one of the subjects that Liger uses to improve student skills. Most explorations explore outside to understand what do our projects look like and how can we get more experience by field trips? Liger is my dream school Liger not only teaches me but Liger also helps me to be a good person and teaches me how to become a good person and good leader. LLC educates the students and wants to change Cambodia and now all the students have started to help change Cambodia through unusual projects such as recycle community, provide which is the english lesson to the community students. I like to go to this unusual school because I can do many things that I never done before like programming and design our own portfolio.

Economic

Supply of fans

This graph shows how supply changes. The shifter that makes the supply change in this situation is technology. The technology decreases because of the big tsunami. Look at the equilibrium to new equilibrium and compare both of them. When you look to the equilibrium point the price of the fan $20 and the quantity sold are 350 fan. If you look to the new equilibrium point the price is $40 and quantity sold are 200 fan. So it mean when that new bad technology produce less fan the price of the fan will increase up to $40 per 200 fan.

TV Broadcasting

In the TV Broadcasting group we learned about how to be a good emcee, film, and share the jobs. We divided into four jobs such as producer, research , editor, cameraman, and emcee. A producer has to make a script for emcee. The producer is the one that control all the job because producer tell what to do and check the information that we have . Also they need to make a storyboard and tell the cameraman what plot they want for the video. The research is the one that find the information to make the video and it is a big job because we need to have the good information. After all of this, they have to sit with the editor to tell what we want the video look like. A editor also has a hard work to do. They have to make sure that the video is right and what they want. A cameraman has to go to take a video with the producer. Before the emcee talks in the real show they have to understand what the script  about. In our class we made one documentary about Liger. Before we made a documentary we took some trips to some TV stations and met with the producer. We went to the CTN channel station and Apsara channel station. We got a lot of experience from the emcee and the producer. It helped us a lot when we made our documentary.

 

In this I had learn 7 steps that we can make the video:

  1. Equipment or Material
  2. Topic
  3. Planning

– Treatment

– Story board

  1. Research
  2. List of interview or schedule
  3. Start shooting or start filming

– Wide shot

– Mid shot

– Close up

– Pen(Move from left to right or right to left)

– Tilt (Move from up to down or to down to up)

– Follow shot

– Zoom shot

  1. Editing

– Soundtrack

– Graphic

– Effect

I learning about storyboard if we want to make a video we need to have a storyboard and in storyboard we need to draw something about the story or write to make more easy. Also if we forget we can look on the storyboard.
