AI Reverse Challenge

For Inquiry This Week , we made a slideshow about us trying to make an AI Picture , from scratch , without copying the original image . It took me about 5 tries to get a very very similar image .

I learned that AI Images are very hard to copy and make , but the longer you try to make it , the easier it will be .

Social Influence

LI: To evaluate peer pressure, digital interactions and social influences

We unpacked how in a world of followers and influencers, how we can stay the ‘Navigator’ of our own lives.

We enjoyed this task , because it teaches us about if people are doing stuff because they want to , or if they are doing it because they want to copy someone .

Building Our Class Culture

This Was Our Leader , Will ‘Ilolahia , and he was the founder of the group ( The Polynesian Panthers) , and him and others formed into one group , and protested about Racism , how people were sent back to their country if they didnt work , or if their work visa expired . He gave the NZ Prime Minister a visit , with his whole crew , to flash very bright spotlights at his house , and run away , to get revenge .

Something that I learnt was that he is not only a leader , he solved racism in NZ .

 

 

How We Honour The Treaty Of Waitangi

LI: To understand what honouring the treaty means

We explored the ways we still honour the Treaty of Waitangi today. The Treaty of Waitangi is important because in 1840 it proved that the Maori and British and get along , and end the war . Today it is important because it celebrates the Maori signing the Treaty , to prove that the British can own everything , so they got into a war , and they ended it by an agreement , at the end .

Something we found interesting was the British never agreed to share land with the Maori , if they signed it . They just agreed for the Maori to have no land for themselves , and all of the land for the British .

Expectations at Waitangi

LI: To explore the different expectations the people who were there the day the Treaty of Waitangi was signed in 1840

We looked at why the Treaty of Waitangi was signed, who was involved and what we thought their expectations were. We used speech bubbles and thoughtbubbles to reflect this.

Something we found interesting was that the British were never agreeing on sharing land with the Maori . That Treaty proved that the Maori had no land for themself , and the British and all of the land .

Taisorn’s Agent Of Change 2026

For my work, I created an “Agent of Change” blog DLO (Digital Learning Object). In this blog, I talked about what it means to be an agent of change, shared examples of people making a positive difference, and explained how anyone can help make the world a better place. It was inspiring to learn about change-makers and think about the ways I can create change too.

“Exploring Game Development: My Google DLO Journey”

In this blog post, I talk about making a Google DLO (Digital Learning Object) all about being a game developer! I wanted to show what it’s like to create your own video games, from coming up with ideas to actually designing and building the game. In my Google DLO, I explained the skills you need, like coding, problem-solving, and creativity. I also shared some cool facts about game development and why it’s such an exciting job. Check out my DLO to learn more about how you can start your journey as a game developer!

AI Video Day/Night
