High Tech High’s exhibition night of 2008 was an evening filled with art, photography, ringing bells, life-size DNA samples and numerous students talking about their projects to the masses. This was my third exhibition night here at the High Tech village and this year stood out from my previous years. Last night’s exhibition was very interesting because not only did we show the final products of our projects, but we were in the middle of the project so we showed our audience our final products in progress. Overall I though that this year’s exhibition night was a success and also quite self-fulfilling in my part. Prior to the exhibition I was quite nervous, however once it actually started my partner and I discussed our material well within the math-physics portion of our exhibition. Our group did very well with our audience and we provided them with significant information and presented our projects with pride. We were able to educate our audience about the content behind our pinhole camera project, and I had very interesting and engaging conversations with my audience during while exhibiting the graphic novel project. Something that I believe somewhat lacked was that at times, I personally would either talk too fast and my brain would get ahead of my mouth. I was mainly confident when talking about the material however as a human being, I naturally get nervous at some point when discussing the projects. This is definitely something that I would like to change and do differently next time, because there would be no point in talking about something if your audience doesn’t understand you. Throughout my different shifts in the classroom, I was asked many different questions regarding the projects and I was able to answer them confidently. However there was a moment while I was in the “photography studio” and someone asked me a question that somewhat stumped me because I couldn’t quite understand the question itself. So to somehow doge from answering the question itself and providing a wrong answer, I shifted the conversation to what I did know so that I didn’t leave that person with a fixed answer.

Overall I enjoyed exhibition night and I can’t wait to see what lies ahead for us next year and the years to come.
