1) What form of medium (music, art or literature ) allows you to best connect with Jesus and Why

The form of medium that allows me to connect with Jesus would be art because i could pray and look at him straight, and concerntrate on him only.

2) Why has Jesus been portrayed in so many different ways throughout history?

Sometimes because it is the only way that people can relate to Jesus and is the way some people see Jesus like with myself i look at Jesus and see my dad, which is true because i believe my dad is hard working and peaceful, and he cares for other people other than himself but i also see my mum as well. Different people see different objects and figures as their example of Jesus.

3) How is Jesus portrayed at Parramatta Marist?

Jesus is portrayed through the ways of St Marcellin Champagnat. Also you can say that the students and staff at Parramatta Marist display the true morals and ways of Jesus.

4) What artistic time period do you think best represents your image of Jesus and why?

The time period i am in now which back in the olden days i would call the futuristic period and the modernism theme.

5) Identify one image of Jesus that appeals to you. What do you like about the representation?

I like how they show Jesus as a teacher because he was a teacher of things especially towards his society and also towards ourselves.In this image he is humble and gentle.The colour may be dark on the outside but Jesus is represented as a white figure with his white robe.
6) What factors currently shape your image of Jesus and why.

Jesus with white clothes

halo around Jesus because he is God

and just normal factors that shape any image of JESUS because i dont really mind, i just dont like when Jesus is represented as a wrong or unpleasant figure. So i always try to keep my images of Jesus as a gentle and humble presence

1) What words and or images come to mind when you hear the word Jesus.

Words that come to mind when i hear the word Jesus are words that are calm and are peaceful. To me Jesus is humble and kind. These are the types of words i hear, also gentle, significance, helpful and light. These words i just wrote are words that i think of when i hear Jesus.

2) Why might it be important for young people to identify with an image of Jesus?

So young people can have an idea of what Jesus is to them and what he means to them. It may comfort young people if they have an idea of what Jesus is to them. Like me i think of my mum and my dad when i think of Jesus and all the people that comfort me and support me.

3) Where in your life do you most associate with images of Jesus?

When your at church and when your talking to Jesus in prayer you wonder who your talking to and you may think of Jesus’ image in your dreams and in your heart.

1. How many rubrics are there for this project?
There are three rubrics for this project 

-The Group Task 1 Rubric

-Individual Rubric

-Group Rubric

2. Describe the purpose of the rubric?

The purpose of these rubrics is like a criteria and a guideline to help you suceed in the project. It is there to help you have the stuff you need in your project which is what will be marked.

3. How can you use the rubric to get the best possible mark?

You can use the rubric to get the possible mark because when you do all your work the teacher marking will be marking you on the material that you hand in and you need to have the material that the rubric is asking for. Because you cant just hand in some work that they dont want or dont need. So you need to follow the rubric and include the material that you need in your  project in your submitted work.
