300 page word essay on second life and special project this term
Our class 9.1 have been working on second life for special project, for about 11 weeks now and I think that everybody is starting to get used to uploading objects, working and figuring out how photo shop works, and also learning how to use second life and editing their avatar to their desired look..
Special project has helped me this term to understand more and go into even more deeper roots understanding how technology works these days. Even though It is a very tiny part of technology I can still get a sense of where all the fuss is coming from, everything is so technical and hard when your looking at it and you don’t understand, but when you know how to use it you become familiar with all the tools that everything becomes fun and easy.
Photo shop is one of the cleverest tools I have ever worked with. There is so much you can do and when you know how to use it properly you do you can pretty much make anything you want. I used it for editing my Liverpool jersey, which I later updated to second life. When I came to start I had no Idea what I was doing, but with the help of Mr groom and some of the students I became more familiar with it and then I really started to show off my skills making an awesome Liverpool jersey for my avatar.
When it came to being on second life I was really astounded by all the editing you could do. Even if you started off with a brick, you could end up making a house. And I know a few of the students did. I had a lot of fun being on second life and making all the objects that we could. I also in general enjoyed special project it is one of the most fun subjects I have.

Moral integrity is when you are moraly mature enough to make the right decisions in the highest level.

Maximillian Kolbe is regarded as a Christian of exemplary moral intergrity becuase when he was at the concentration camp in Germany he gave up his life to save another man.
3.) Outline Maximillians ethical actions/principles that he demonstrated in Auschwitz.
Some ethical actions that Maximillian demonstrated in Auschwitz was that he helped the prisoners in the camp and told them ’ everything sufferings came to an end’. He also took part in moving the bodies of the suffereing, continued his preisting ways and performed confession with lots of the prisoners.
4.) Evaluate whether you think he made the right decision and provide research to support your answer. i.e. Catholic teachings.
I think that Maximillian kolbe made the right decision because the man was innocent and it wasnt his fault that he should die and if Maximillian thinks that he should take his life instead then he should do it to show God how much he loves him.
