ILP

Posted by Sydney Montgomery in Ilp - 10Th Grade - Giorgio - Wed on

My ILP started 2 weeks ago. It is at this non-profit called YOACAP. It is for finding opportunities for teens and young adults. They help find things like jobs, shelter, etc. They also do STD testing at schools. They spread the word of what they do on multiple social media pages. They have weekly meeting with kids and mini classes to help teens and young adults. ​

ILP November Update

Posted by Claire Byrnes in Ilp - 10Th Grade - Giorgio - Wed on

Over the past few weeks I have sent emails, helped to plan a college information session and am still working on a directory. Through the emails lists I’ve informed the All City Orchestra and Band about various opportunities such as free concerts and workshops. One of these opportunities was a College Workshop. I helped bring the food to the Kimmel Center and set everything up. I also worked on a directory of the musicians in the International Conference of Symphony and Opera Musicians (ICSOM). Project 440 and I will send out emails to ask these professional musicians if they were involved with the All City Philadelphia and whether or not they’d like to share their experience or donate money.

For my ILP, I've been working on sorting out the boxes. I will be doing this until the competition starts, since there are 72 boxes. Sorting these boxes out requires a lot of focus. It was hard at first figuring out if the pieces of the legos are right, but since I've went through a lot of boxes already, it's become easier.


ILP Checkin - Month 2

Posted by Thomas Wallison in Ilp - 10Th Grade - Giorgio - Wed on

My ILP hasn't happened since I last checked in. Last week most schools besides SLA had a half-day, and since I'm working in a classroom at one of those schools, I had nowhere to go. I hope that what I've been doing continues happening. So far I've enjoyed what I've been doing. I hope that what's been going on so far with this so here we go.

ILP Month 2

Posted by Nicholas Shaw in Ilp - 10Th Grade - Giorgio - Wed on

Since the last post on slate about my ILP, I've learned a lot. Even though I haven't had my ILP because of no school and cancellations. I learned the parts of the hardware of the computer. I learned how to re-image a computer, and also how to update something on several computers at once. I'm looking forward to continuing to learn about the different aspects of fixing computers. I'm also looking forward to when I can fix student's computers.

Nat ILP November Update

Posted by Nathaniel Hilton in Ilp - 10Th Grade - Giorgio - Wed on

Recently I have moved away from the idea of a recording studio, every place I have emailed has rejected me or not replied. So I then decided to work for my dad, but my dad could not provide me with enough work every week. Although my mom is willing to have me as an intern at her office, People Metrics. Here I would take photos and draw pictures for the online blog. I like the idea of the freedom that follows this both creatively and physically. I am allowed to roam around the city and take photos, I would then return to the office and show the photos to the blog manager George. The other ILP offer that came up is from Ms. Giorgio, I would work for AIA, which is some sort of Architecture foundation or firm. There seems to be ideas about redesigning their logo, which interests me as well.

The photography classes have been going fine so far. During the classes, I do activities, like guessing what type of picture we're looking at, trying to figure out how the scope affects the light, and walking outside and changing our ISO settings. I like taking pictures whenever the moment comes. Two days ago, I took pictures with a famous photographer. He takes pictures of people around the world and he complemented my photography skills. I hope to tell my class about what I learned and share my experience. 

Kopf ILP Update 11/2

Posted by Kathryn Kopf in Ilp - 10Th Grade - Giorgio - Wed on

​ So far I have been to two sessions of my ILP and it's really cool. We haven't been doing what I expected, but I'm still learning a lot and really enjotyng myself and my work there. The first session I went, I got lost trying to get there and was 20 minutes late and fairly embarrassed. Then once we got started I felt fairly out my depth, everyone else seemed to know what they were doing and how to operate the power tools a lot better than I did. Yet, after a while I got into a groove and helped hang up a swing and drill holes for the next swing. We were trying to build a playground for this neighborhood in West Philadelphia and I feel like a made a good contribution to building the playground and to the neighborhood.

The next session was far less interesting, but I still had some fun and don't expect the whole year will be like this. The most recent session I went to, all we were doing was packing up and closing down the Department of Making + Doing, obviously this was not nearly as fun as building a playground. We had to pack up all the tools that we got to keep and label all of the boxes that we put them into. It was really cool to see all of the things that students had made at this place, and I wish I could have been here before they had to close the place down. Next week we are starting to move out and bring tools to the SLA campuses. I think that after we finish moving everything out we will move on to cooler and more intellectually challenging things. I'm excited for what is to come.
