 * __ How can my learning help my community? __**
 * The word learning says it all. There is not one person in the world that can say “i know everything” as we learn new things every single day. As far as my learning is concerned, it is a never ending process. The unit question is asking me how my learning can help my community, so I have been thinking about it and here are my thoughts. **
 * Through my learning feel there are two different stages in my life where I feel I could be a help to the community: **
 * Present and the Future: **
 * From what I have learnt so far, since primary we have been brought up studying the process to follow the learner profile which are: **
 * 1) ** Risk Taker **
 * 2) ** Open Minded **
 * 3) ** Caring **
 * 4) ** Inquirer **
 * 5) ** Knowledgeable **
 * 6) ** Balanced **
 * 7) ** Thinker **
 * 8) ** Communicator **
 * 9) ** Principled **
 * 10) ** And Reflective **
 * All of the above help me into becoming a successful student. If one follows all of the learner profile attributes correctly he/she will benefit more in their life. **** The learner profile is linked to our unit with great importance as these skills can help us to inform and alert our community on safety issues that are needed to know. **
 * (These are points to be noted when creating my poster) **
 * In the future I would have become older than what I am today which means my understanding would improve and continue to get stronger thus my ability to help people would have changed for the better. In the future there would be a variety of jobs to that will help the community in a better and safer living. **
 * There are many ways of communicating ideas for a safer living. One of them is to design posters to create awareness on safety. If I were to become a part of one community my contribution towards the community would be to create safety posters for them. **
 * The key to creating a good poster is to follow these steps: **
 * 1. A good safety poster contains a message that can rhyme, this helps the reader to remember the creators message for example take a look at this poster: **
 * This poster is trying to show that if a wire contains a few flaws you must replace the wire immediately before the flaws start to increase and then eventually it would start a fire. This rhyme is very easy for me to remember because this rhyme is very catchy. **

=My Design Brief:=
 * 2. Another good safety poster would make the poster a bit more funnier than what the message is, this means that the picture would be a lot more funnier than the saying for example: **
 * This poster is trying to tell the reader that don’t eat chemicals without checking the labels on the container to see if the substance is safe to eat or not, otherwise you will end up in the hospital before you even know it. **
 * I am going to create a saftey poster for the use of my community which will be my school. **

=My Design Specifications:=
 * ===The poster I will make wil be 40 cm tall by 28 cm wide or vise versa, it will be easy for viewers to read from near and far.===
 * ===I will make my creation have layers and make sure they are all used.===
 * ===I will make it possible for me to re-size my images and I will try to design them in a way where the pictures can blend into each other.===
 * ===I will try not to change alot of the main idea with my design i have chosen===
 * ===At the end of this process i will flatten all my layers in gimp and this will imported into publisher for me to transform into an A3size for me to print it out and laminate my final product.===

** Designs ** ** Plan **
 * For our design stage we had to create at least three designs for our final product that is to create a safety poster for our community. Here are my designs: **
 * Design 1: **
 * This design is self-explanatory. This basically means that you must avoid driving with speed during the night. **
 * Design 2: **
 * Like the design before is sending out a message to the reader which advises them not to over speed as one could dye in an accident so it better to be late for something than to speed up and end up in the hospital of dead. **
 * Design 3: **
 * This poster clearly states that if you would drink and drive you would lose your concentration and get involved in an accident and end up dying if not careful. **
 * Design 4: **
 * This design is based on the science lab because the science is another place where you would be very cautious because of all of the chemicals and toxics in the lab. This poster indicates that you must not run in the science labs because you would end up having an accident and injuring yourself. **
 * Design 5: **
 * This poster shows that you must never leave and open flame unattended because if you do the flame could catch something on fire this poster shows that the flame is about to catch the boy’s hair on fire this is because the other person left the open flame unattended. **
 * Design 6: **
 * The different pictures that are shown on this poster are alerting the readers when handling different types of chemicals. **
 * Out of all the posters above, it shows that they are all sending out a clear message on safety, I have decided to extract details from three different posters that are on road safety to be my final piece, I will also change it in a way where the poster would be useful the drivers in our school community.The poster i will make wil be 40 cm tall by 28 cm wide or vise versa, it will be easy for viewers to read from near and far. I will make my creation have layers and make sure they are all used. I will make it possible for me to re-size my images and I will try to design them in a way where the pictures can blend into each other. i will try not to change alot of the main idea with my design i have chosenat the end of this process i will flatten all my layers in gimp and this will imported into publisher for me to transform into an A3size for me to print it out and laminate my final product. **
