=Introduction= Welcome to my anatomy portfolio! Through this entire year, I have created a number of different projects in anatomy class. For example, I have composed many reflections, created a powerpoint, and also contributed in creating a wikispace, with the collaboration of the class. From this class I have gained the experience of working with other classmates to create something that many students have not done before. We have been able to utilize technology in order to gain a better understanding for the human body, in general.

With the use of this portfolio, I can publicly display the work I have accomplished, here in anatomy. Simply the click of your mouse, you can preview anything you wish. Also, a reflection on many of these accomplishments will be stated to also exihibt the growth, experience, and values I have gained from this class. I hope you enjoy. =Biography=

My name is Jeffrey Lee, and currently I am attending Faith Lutheran Jr./sr. High School. For this year, I have decided to take anatomy, simply because I thought the class would be a challenge to take. Although, the class was a bit difficult, it has aided me in obtaining a greater insight into the human body. Also, for our [|first blog] of the year, we were then to explain, in depth our reasoning for choosing this class. Something I would also to add is that a don't quite know how this class would benefit my future. For my career and school choices, I am still very uncertain, and I am attempting to keep my options open. Although, I am nearing a time where many decisions are needed to be made, this has greatly helped to develop several ideas. =Tissues Project= During our tissues project, we were assigned to create a slideshow, displaying all the branches of the human tissue. From this work, I am particularly pleased because of the large amounts of time and effort I had to input. I am happy to say that this project would be the best of my work that I have done in the entire semester. =Brochure= From this activity, I could see that it was another challenge. This one was particularly interesting, because in my project, I was to research skin cancer. With the information we gathered, we were to create an attractive brochure, in my case, about skin cancer. Through this project, I was able to digest many essential facts, and it really made me think. It was also a bit sad to see some of the effects of cancer, as a looked through many pictures. Although I sincerely enjoyed completing this project, I also felt my work was very inadequate and this be on of my least favorite works. =Joint Wiki= In the joint wiki, my partner and I were to create a wiki about the hip joint, but unlike the other ones we have created, this one had a new twist. We were to create these wikis, specially for the middle-schoolers. When I intially heard this I was quite thrillered, knowing that my work would help to improve someone's education. The most difficult portion of this project was brainstorming ideas of what middle-schoolers would find fascinating, especially about something such as the hip joint. Joint Wiki =Blogs= Creating blogs were something very different from anything that I have ever done. A blog is a much more public and quicker way to express one's views. Throughout the entirety of the semester, we were able to reveal our opinions and comments about articles, field trips, and even about our own projects. Although writing blogs were a hassle, in my opinion, I believe that it is a very good method of self-expression. Blogs also helped to make a more personal connection, such as the one I wrote, concerning osteoporosis. I disscussed who this problem takes place in my own family, and how I may one day suffer. [|My Blog] =Wiki no.2= Through the semester, we had to create many wikis, but my favorite one would have to be the one I worked with, about the types of body scanning technology. My group was to create a wiki that would well explain the functions, history, and other facts about sonography. This was a good experience because I was able to gain a significant amount of knowledge about its uses. I already knew that it was commonly used to create images of infants in the womb. This would be my favorite wiki, simply because I was able to gain the handle of it through this one. Ultrasounds =Blog no. 2= In another blog I discussed the field trip that the entire anatomy class went on in order to gain greater insight into the human body. I was really glad that we had an opportunity to explore the human body and I was really glad we were able to take this trip blog. 2nd Semester Porfolio link
