DESIGN THEORY 2 QUESTIONS
1.Define; Learner/learning
2.Define;Teacher/teaching
3.What motivates you to learn?
4.How do you learn?
5.How do you know you understand something?
1. A learner is someone, usually a child at school or a student at University who learns from a teacher or takes up knowledge or beliefs and trusts that they are learning what they need to know later in life.
Learning is when you gain knowledge, comprehension, or mastery of through experience or study.
2. A person that has trained and gained experience enough to teach other people.
Teaching is when you teach other people about what you know and what you have learnt.
3. I am motivated to learn Jewellery, because it has become a great passion of mine and I want to gain experience so that I can progress in my journey of becoming a Jeweller/Goldsmith. Then eventually I can pass on my skills to others and keep learning form others along the way.
4. I learn through listening to other people's experiences and attending lectures at university. I also make my own mistakes and learn to not do something again or to learn that I can do it a better way. You can learn form yourself, others and their experiences.
5. When I understand something then I feel confident to do it. When I understand a ring then I feel ready to go ahead and do it. I also start becoming enthusiastic and then I know that I have understood it.

INFECTING THE CITY REVIEW
The festival was quite interesting. I loved the fact that the art was made up of recycling. I have been doing recycling for about 10 years and I can't stop. It comes so naturally. I did find it funny how they had bins that were allocated to a certain recycling item and people seemed to not grasp that idea. The cardboard would be in the TIN bin and then others also mixed up. People in South Africa just have no idea when it comes to recycling. It's all new for them.As and artist/jeweller I would look at creating extravagant jewellery out of recycling. I would make them so different to what the item was originally that people would not recognize them. Say for example a plastic bottle and then transform it into something completely different.
In order to spread the awareness of recycling and that one can really benefit from it, is a tricky task. People are not interested in things that take too much effort. So if one could create an art piece that would gain interest then you can start to spread the idea of recycling. If one could create a project that would encourage people to recycle and then in return they would benefit from it, like getting money for it or creating something new with the recycling and then sell that. This would not only educate people, it would also create more jobs which are desperately needed. A funky recycling Jewellery line for example could be created. Done tastefully and well, it would go off like a rocket.
