Entry 5
Date: 13th November
Section: Investigating/ Planning
ATLs: Thinking Critically, Collaboration, Communication
Type of PJ: Meeting
Necessary Information: On Monday 13th November, I met with my supervisor, Mr Esmail, at school during lunch time. It was the first meeting, which brought us to discuss about the whole project, specific ways where I have to turn to and how to start planning.
Purpose of Meeting: The purpose of this meeting was to first of all introduce my project to my supervisor and to make sure it was clear, challenging enough, and possible to realize. We will then meet, every Monday, at 1.15 until 1.45
Notes from Meeting: The first point we covered in this meeting was my overall project. I explain to Mr. Esmail the aim of my project, the way I was going to realize it, and the material I was going to use. Once the project and the aim was clear, Mr. Esmail asked me a few questions regarding some details and we came up with this points:
Outcomes: The first thing I have to do after this meeting is to investigate and think about the way I am going to test my product. The idea that came out was to play the song, if possible, in a bar and see the results from the audience.
Adding to this, the way I am going to prove my process was a little tricky. The idea was to record every lessons I have with my singing teacher, and in the end put them together to form a movie of the overall process.
What I have to do now is research about “Can music create a change in people”, investigate how to create good lyrics and find out the qualifications of my singing teacher, raika.

Once the project and the aim was clear, Mr. Esmail asked me a few questions regarding some details and we came up with this points:
- In my song, I will sing, which is a skill that I already know a lot about and at which I am pretty good. I will play the guitar, which I already know a lot about. The struggle is to compose my own song using these two skills.
- In my song, I will add a piano part, which is a developing skill, as I never took any piano lessons. I will compose a melody based from my guitar chords and add it to my song. I will develop this skill thanks to my expert and singing teacher who is experimented in playing piano.
- Mr. Esmail talked about the part of my goal “make people open up - talk with someone”. He thinks it is a good point regarding children getting bullied.
- The idea of using gradband as a draft and then recording in a studio is positive.
