MY VISION BOARD

Introduction

The students use their knowledge of Microsoft to create a Vision Board in Microsoft Word.

Introduction

The purpose of this project is for each student to create a Vision Board that brings their life, dreams, and goals to reality. A vision board is simply a visual representation or collage of the things that an individual wants to have, be, or do in his/her life. This project will involve the student acknowledging his/her own personal dreams and attributions. And will essentially provide the student with a realistic outline of what he/she hopes to accomplish. 

Task

Task

You will be required to use your knowledge of Microsoft Office to create your own personal Vision Boad in aWord document. Your personal vision board is only limited by the extent of your own creativity.

This project will:

  • Be a reflective, one-page document created in Microsoft Word.

  • Illustrate the priorities, goals, and objectives you hope to achieve in the near or distant future.

Once the project has been completed the students will be expected to present their Vision Board to the class, and discuss its contents.

Process

Process

Creating your Vision Board:

      •       Components

      –      The visionary (what the person who makes a vision board is called)

      –      creatively combines photos, clip art, shapes, colors, and fonts

      –      to make the Vision Board

      –      that illustrates what is important for the present and future.

      •       Categories

      –      The visionary may choose any categories of ideas, tasks, priorities, and/or dreams that seem of importance.

      –      These may form along more abstract lines such as spiritual, social, physical, mental; or they may be more concrete such as family, health, career, church, travel, financial.

      –      There may be long term goals (1-3-5-10 years out) as well as daily or weekly action items.

      •       Limitation

      –      There are no limits except the imagination of the visionary.

      –      The challenge is to get all of your ideas onto one 8½” x 11” size page.

 

I will present my own personal Vision Board in class. This will help give the students an idea of what they might do with their own project.
