[] 6 steps of RBL SITE

Today I will be writing my first journal.
 * Week 3 Tuesday 26/07/11**

1.**What have you achieved in your in your learning?** One of the achievements that I have achieved is that I have been able to find very useful search engines which is very important to my researching skills for my future benefits.

2. **What you want to achieve/goals and future directions?** I'm looking forward to achieve is that I want to master my researching skills as I mentioned in question 1 that it is one of the most important things for my future benefits.

3. **Positive/successful moments in your research? What did you enjoy the most?** One of the most successful moments that I have achieved is that having to find the 6 steps to RBL, What I enjoyed the most was playing around with wikispaces being able to look at people's profiles to see what they're up to. Also, being able to post comments on people's profile.

4. **Negatives/limitations/problems in your research?** One thing I had trouble dealing with was having to find very accurate information about wheat for about 2 weeks, until then I was able to find very legit information about wheat.

5. **What was the hardest parts to research? How can you overcome this in the future?** The hardest part to research during these 4 weeks of intergrated learning is that at first I had trouble researching but then the teacher provided us some useful search engines which was Very helpful. In order to overcome this in the future, I'll need to keep practising my researching skills and in the future.

6. **What skills did you learn in this research?** Some of the skills that I've learnt throughout these weeks of intergrated learning is that I have discovered helpful search engines and those ones will be my main search engines.

7.**Interesting comments?** All these weeks of intergrated learning, I have learnt so much about researching and being able to write my own blogs just like this and doing my assignment on my wikipage. I have made the right decision to choose to do Intergrated learning as It will help me in Research project in year 12 and I do no regret choosing it. In week 4, we just continued with the " research skills exercise "

Performance on the 27th October.
 * Week 8 Tuesday **

Continue on research about dj's and survey questions.
 * Week 9 Tuesday **

During the week i started to look up more music for my mix. I browsed the site Youtube.com, Livingelectro.com and seekndownload.com. My mix would consist of atleast 9 songs and will go for 20 minutes. My performance will only last 10 minutes, but i made it 20 minutes to show my mixing skills with the class and for promo use.
 * Week 10 Tuesday**

On Tuesday, our double lesson, Theo came in to talk to us. He's an event manger and a dj. He's been djing for almost a year now and have been studying event managing while having a job as one. He has managed an underaged event in already called Evolution Underage party, and in December he will be his second underage event called Summer Nights White Party. He has also asked if anyone would want to help promote.
 * Term 4 - Week 1**

This week we just continued working to finish our final research. I've been finding out alot more about DJ's and researching the top 100 DJs through the Dj Mag. For example David Guetta, a superstar DJ gets paid aorund $30,000+ for a night, or sometimes even an hour, and Calvin Harris can make a total worth 2 million a tour. []
 * Week 2**

Just making sure everything is up to date and adding/editing a few more things because there is a few things i've left out.
 * Week 3**

On Tuesday for double lesson, i came up with a great idea to put into my journal. Mr Frangos had already decided to try to get DJ PAULY D, a famous tv reality star and now a famous dj who's toured with Britney Spears for her tour. I told him that if he is to get him to come to Australia and perform in Adelaide, hosted by APOLLO DJS, than might aswell organise a WHOLE AUSTRALIAN TOUR for him but ONLY hosted and organised by the APOLLO DJS only! This will mean the APOLLOS will organise venues and everything around the whole state of AUSTRALIA and not to let anyone or even the venue owners know our plan until we confirm everything and sign contracts because we actually dont want people to steal our idea. After everything is confirmed, we will make a facebook event which will be sent to EACH APOLLO DJS friends list which i believe will rack in more then 20,000 + or even more including randoms knowing about the event. This will most likely be the best plan ever.
 * Week 4**

On Tuesday, 27th of October, our group hosted a DJ performance for the school for Mag and myself to practice their DJing whilst Tan and David practiced setting up equipment and recording the performance. The people who participated in making this event are Mr Frangos, Mag, myself, Muhammed, Tan, Andrew, Kaine, Sean and David. Kaine and Andrew were the hosts of the show giving out raffle tickets which later were drawn and the prizes were tickets an underage event sometime in December. Mag did RNB while i did Electro/House and we could only have 10minutes each. I believe i did quiet well because my popular song " David Guetta ft. Usher - Without you " a hit single, got the people coming and crowding the place up. We then had a special guest, LIL SAINT who just recently graduated year 12 do a rap verse for his performance.going to rap for us with his own song. During this time i was throwing chocolate and many students were dancing. Overall it was a good lunch performance, we couldn't do it without Mr Evans equipments, planning and hosting. Andrew and Kaine for MCING and the rest for helping out with the recording and taking photos. Basically thank you to everyone who participated and joined.
