I. Describe the Assignment and Goals
The Element T-Shirt is a Project for Chemistry where we were giving a blank white T-Shirt. Once we received our shirt we were tasked to find a compound that consists of two elements and when we did we were given a sheet with a list of information. This paper had everything we needed to know about the project and what the requirements were. We had to do research on many different things for each individual element and the compound we had chosen. Once the research was finished I had to plan a creative way to display this information on the shirt. One element went on the front and the other on the back.
II. Why did you choose this Project for your Portfolio
I chose this project for this portfolio because out of the experiments, tests, and projects in Chemistry this semester it has been the most unique or interesting. I would also have to say that it has taken the most creativity compared to following instructions for a lab.
III. How it Represents a 21st Century Skill
This project represents Thinking and Problem Solving Skills because for this project I had to take all the information that I had learned and create a good design for all of it onto a shirt. Not only did it have to fit on a shirt but it needed to look neat and organized while being still informational and creative.
IV. How it shows my Current Growth
This sample demonstrates my current growth because It showed that I can have a creative mindset to solve issues and create nice designs or plans at the same time.
V. Area of Opportunity for New Growth
Next time I could try to make it look like a real modern day t-shirt design that would look like something people would wear on a day to day basis, Like streetwear.
