Brian Grazer talks about making things difficult for himself on purpose to disrupt his comfort zone. He wants to learn by challenging himself and taking risks. Ms. Gergely said today that "there is a fine line between difficultly and stupidity" and I completely agree.
I think it is completely necessary to take risks in life and do things that you normally wouldn't do. That being said, there is a difference between plunging head first into the most dangerous surfing spot with no experience and taking a scuba diving course. You have to gain experience and practice (!) before you can actually learn something.
Relating that to my project, I have definitely improved my ceramics skills from the very first week of class to now. I still only have one tea bowl and am planning on going in tomorrow 2nd and 8th period. Hopefully I can make one each period! I'm still stuck on what designs to do so I will have to do some more research on that.
I also talked to Ms. Gergely today about using my teapot that I have to make in ceramics class for my WISE project. Ms. Lutter told me it was double-dipping but Ms. Gergely said, even though it technically is double-dipping, it would seem silly not to be able to use it. That means I have to put in double the effort and focus to make this teapot look great!
