Fitzroy crossing

our service partner and what we did?

our challenge was to work with Fitzroy crossing district high school, to help sell and advertise their products that they supply with us. we would be selling these products on runway both online and in store.

what roles did we take on?

we brain stormed ideas on ways to sell and advertise the product and what types of products Fitzroy could sell/supply us with.

what challenges did we face and how did we get over them? 

we had a lot of trouble communicating with Fitzroy, due to Covid-19 and change in leadership at their school. we overcame these challenges by reaching out to  the other service partners asking if they wanted to help supply us with products.

how did we work with our mentor and service partners?

we kept bouncing ideas off of Ms Winter and seeing if they were worth investing our time in. we also sent a bunch of questions to Fitzroy asking them about their products and the quality/variety of them.

what capabilities did we use?

we defiantly used problem solving because of the poor communicating with Fitzroy. we had to problem solve by finding new ways to make out challenge work (we did this by reaching out to the other service partners). we also used persistence by pushing through when faced with these challenges (e.g Covid and communication ) .

where can you apply your skills from this project to outside of school?

we can use these skills in basically every job we do, because we did a lot of brain storming about different ways to sell and advertise, but also coming up with different products.

what am I most proud of?

I’m most proud of how we just kept on going when we had all of the challenges due to covid because it was very hard to communicate and get a reply from them, but we kept going and branched out and I think that we are onto something.

Health- Online Behavior

I have learnt in this unit that everything that you do online, you have to be extremely careful. its very easy to hurt someone’s feelings just by a post , or saying 2 words. So you really need to think about what your posting before you do it. It can be as simple as thinking about what if you were that person and someone was doing that to you, you need to show empathy. You also need to take responsibility for you action and own up for what you do. being a bystander is just as bad as actually bullying them, because your just letting it happen and not doing anything about it.

 

You need to respect what others do online and if they do post something that is defiantly not right then you take responsibility and tell them that its not right or you ask them if everything is ok because they might be going through something. using critical thinking is extremely important when using social media. we use it when someone sketchy requests to follow us or when we are posting a hurtful comment. we need to think about  what we are doing before we press post or press accept.

 

What i want in the future is for our generation to not be so fixated on getting the most likes on a Instagram post or having the most Instagram followers. I want us to be more aware of what’s happening around us, and actually just be in the moment, because our day and age, there is so much new technology and Its taking over and we are doing nothing about it. we care about our image on social media then spending time with our family.
