Activity Journal

The activity journal represents an ongoing log of reflections gained through each and every project activity on the calendar.

Leave the above sentence in place exactly as it is, delete this sentence, and add a new activity journal entry for each major trip or activity in which you participate (museum visit, cultural experience, etc.).

Activity #1 Westminster Abbey

The relation had an indirect connection to my second milestone because part of Harry Potter was filmed in the halls. I thought a lot of the architecture was cool. since my other two milestones are based in the medieval time period it didn't relate too much but I found how the design was meant to make people look up for prayer was cool. Overall it didn't relate to much to my milestones but I liked seeing all the historic graves. My favorite was either Newton's or Darwin's because they're both contributed a lot to science.

Activity #2 Tower of London

The Tower of London Directly related to my first Milestone. They had a lot of Medieval architecture and had two separate restoration projects going on. One was on the White tower and the other was on Edward (Something I'll look it up later)'s bedroom. They also had a couple of ornate medieval swords in the crowned jewels exhibit which relates to my third Milestone. The ravens and the Bloody tower we're also interesting because of the history and superstition around them. I'm glad the royal family doesn't seem to be as violent towards each other anymore.

Activity #3 St. Paul's Cathedral

St. Paul's Cathedral was too modern for my first and third milestones. The architecture and design could have had an indirect impact on the setting of Harry Potter. The Great Hall in Hogwarts seemed to open up in a similar manner as the Nave in the Cathedral. I think it is going to be difficult to get anything that directly relates to my second milestone.


Add a paragraph about this experience noting the ways in which it related to one or more of your milestone aims. Did this experience directly relate to your milestones, or was the relation more indirect? In what ways did this experience cause you to think differently about your milestone aims? What were some of your other takeaways from the experience? For each site-specific term that you enter, check to see if there is a page in this wiki that exists and link to it. For example, if your reflection mentions William Shakespeare, check to see if William Shakespeare exists on this site. If an article page does exist, 1) link to it here, and 2) edit the page with a section or just a few sentences to ensure that the content on that page relates to this activity journal entry. For example, if while writing your activity journal reflection about your trip to Westminster Abbey, you recall seeing the headstone of William Shakespeare, note it in your reflection, and then edit the William Shakespeare with, at least, a sentence or two in an appropriate section about having a memorial site in Westminster Abbey. While your at it, edit the entry for Westminster Abbey with the relevant information. Did you take some interesting pictures or videos at those sites? Add those to the relevant pages. If an article page does not exist, create the page for the missing topic (link from main menu) and add some general information. For each activity scheduled on our calendar, you should 1) create an Active Journal Entry here, and 2) add/edit at least three related articles. The tone of this article can be personal, but still quality professional writing; the tone of article pages that you edit should be objective professional writing.
Think of this process as building a platform or a case that will help you make particular claims and conclusions through your project milestones.
