As part of our Year 10 Humanities course we are able to research a topic from either History, Civics, Geography or Economics, and create something that we can showcase at our final exhibition on the 11th of November, in Term 4. The topic I got was Civics which I was really happy with because I am interested in law, and with that murder and crime, which was what I wanted to do for my project as soon as I found out about this project. The crime I decided to research on was the Zodiac Killer because I have always found his case really interesting as he is one of the only serial killers that has ever managed to get away with no one knowing his identity.
So far I have found all 10 resources for my annotated bibliography. My annotated bibliography includes links to sources I found containing information for the Zodiac Killer as well as a brief description for each link of what was on the source, the authors purpose and how useful I found the source. I have also completed some pages in my booklet like the timeline, which gives me an idea of the tasks I need to do to be able to complete the project by the exhibition date in Week 5 of Term 4.
My plan for continuing my project is to get more onto the side of writing down points and using my links to gather all of the information about the Zodiac Killer in one place. Very soon I will start planning different ways that my project can be presented for the exhibition. I was thinking presenting it with a bloody dark/theme to match the crime.
I have started and plan on developing further, many capabilities from the capabilities wheel. These include:
- creativity
- organisation
- inquisitive.
