Some things on the cart: paintbrushes, glue, stapler, tape, zines and stickers that I've made, and other various items. On the bottom of this cart is where I store all the journals that I've kept over the years, this is my reminder for "V (Play-Makers Value Vulnerability)", as I've always used journals to write down personal thoughts and ideas and record how I'm feeling at certain points in my life. Even though it can be embarrassing to read these over sometimes, I know that writing them down and working through the feelings I have had has helped me grow as a person and be more self-aware. I also keep my old and current sketchbooks next to the cart, which is a reminder of "F (Play-Makers Feel Free to Fail)" since I know these are a safe place to experiment with ideas and test things out without any pressure of creating beautiful, perfect things.]]> 2020-09-02 20:56:03 UTC https://padlet.com/kellyeil/24zaycxke48ow854/wish/716279340 kellyeil https://padlet.com/kellyeil/24zaycxke48ow854/wish/716280969 The drawers of the desk contain different art supplies, such as this drawer of watercolors. ]]> 2020-09-02 20:57:06 UTC https://padlet.com/kellyeil/24zaycxke48ow854/wish/716280969 Connect with Families kellyeil https://padlet.com/kellyeil/24zaycxke48ow854/wish/716299319 2020-09-02 21:07:31 UTC https://padlet.com/kellyeil/24zaycxke48ow854/wish/716299319 ktrobert https://padlet.com/kellyeil/24zaycxke48ow854/wish/732489272 Wow, Eileen!

So much connection with people through what you have chosen to post and how you represent the relationships that seem to inspire you. Your journaling, and access to the journals over time (even if embarrassing) are a wonderful way to intentionally value being vulnerable, and to be able to see across time how you have become stronger because if it.

Elizabeth, Eileen, Helena, and Hannah, your team’s discovery that Amy from Florida (a shock to be in MI despite the current situation) is seeking ways to feel connected to others in her major really helped your design team hone in on a design in specific ways, but that could have broad applications to others.  I love the pen pal idea for so many reasons - it suggests a one-on-one connection, it emphasizes sharing with another person in a manner that feels right (notice that I resisted the pun “write”) to the people involved, and harkens back to a time when people actually communicated in ways that did not prioritizes speed and convenience.  Pen paling suggests taking time and care with one’s communication.  I also love that it could be a snail mail experience - imagine getting a handwritten letter these days! Something so personal but that happens so very rarely these days.  It is a nod to our need to slow down the speed at which we are living to let relationships grow. Well done!

The lighthouse was important, as its job was to keep ships from running aground in the dangerously shallow water. But just because it was an important job didn’t mean that it was a pleasant one, as Rose quickly learned after she agreed to take up the position as lighthouse keeper. It seemed like it would be easy enough, and give her plenty of time to focus on her artwork, but she quickly learned that the occupation was a lonely one. Her only companions were a trio of black seabirds that made their nests in the rocks.]]> 2020-11-10 22:50:57 UTC https://padlet.com/kellyeil/24zaycxke48ow854/wish/910869798 Prewriting Document kellyeil https://padlet.com/kellyeil/24zaycxke48ow854/wish/910872922 2020-11-10 22:52:34 UTC https://padlet.com/kellyeil/24zaycxke48ow854/wish/910872922 Connection kellyeil https://padlet.com/kellyeil/24zaycxke48ow854/wish/911081787 2020-11-11 00:46:59 UTC https://padlet.com/kellyeil/24zaycxke48ow854/wish/911081787 4-Ifs Routine kellyeil https://padlet.com/kellyeil/24zaycxke48ow854/wish/911181090 2020-11-11 01:36:26 UTC https://padlet.com/kellyeil/24zaycxke48ow854/wish/911181090 Feedback ktrobert https://padlet.com/kellyeil/24zaycxke48ow854/wish/928519314 Eileen, I am hooked! your writing feels like the first page of novel about a lighthouse keeper who is headed into an adventure of a lifetime. The way your lighthouse image is squarely centered on the page, fills up the page from top to bottom, and is surrounded by what feels like turbulent water and only a few circling gulls totally matches the somewhat ominous beginning to this story, and conveys a feeling of isolation (perhaps to be overcome?) that may be driving future events in this story. ]]> 2020-11-16 18:13:33 UTC https://padlet.com/kellyeil/24zaycxke48ow854/wish/928519314 Ex 4 rubric ktrobert https://padlet.com/kellyeil/24zaycxke48ow854/wish/928547884 Exploration 4

Feedback for this exploration was given orally and in writing by Katie as well as your peers during your presentation.

One additional note: Eileen, this was such an original, soul-inspired exploration.  You epitomized exploring something you are interested in (Michigan’s lighthouses), and made connections across contexts with your learning (another class, a prior exploration…).  I learned a whole lot about you, as well as lighthouses, and your work was graphically beautiful.  I am so happy I got to see it!
