Summary of Reflective Journal
There are many skills I will need to be successful in this class. One of the skills I will need is how to edit videos and photos carefully. I will need this skill when working on creating images for our print material. A strategy I can use will be to watch the ‘how to’ videos ahead of time and practice on sample images before I start my images for my project. This way I will be prepared when we start the video editing and creating the final video.
Another skill I will need to be successful in this class is organisation. There are many steps that need to be completed during this class to complete the final project. I will need to be organized to make sure that I have all of the materials I will need. One strategy I can use to organize my work is to create folders for each section of work, saving the files I will need in each folder. I can also name files carefully to save time when I need to go back and find them. When I come up with something I am unsure during this class, I will use the tools that are provided for me and seek help from others when needed. This will help me to be successful.

    European nations, sometimes in united effort, tried and succeeded in causing the Dutch problems. The table displaying the number of seized ships during the Angle-Dutch Wars is a clear example of this challenge that the Dutch had to face (doc. 3). By looking at the table, it is evident that into the late 17th century, the British were surpassing the Dutch, which was gradually losing security in not only numbers, but also in superiority as a naval power. In 1671, the Dutch decided to address the growing problem, revealing through the Amsterdam City Council their opinions that their neighboring countries were indeed targeting their trade and power (doc. 7). This implied how there was a united European effort to challenge the Dutch, and the city council, as the highest decision-making authority in the Dutch Republic, could come this reliable conclusion, because they were directly involved in the nation’s trading affairs and could correctly analyze the situation. Because of this, the council showed how the Dutch were truly threatened by the rest of Europe. This threat seemed to have made its impact, as the national debt is shown to have increased more than three-fold from 1688 to 1713 (doc. 12). This may have been…

    In February 1740, Vice Admiral Edward Vernon, who stayed in Port Royal in Jamaica after the victory in Port Bello, ordered Captain Perceval of the Astrea to transport American masts and naval stores from Boston. This order did not contribute to any glorious victory, but the dispatch of the Astrea to New England during the War of Jenkins’ Ear was the first case that the Royal Navy attempted to provide the overseas naval base with naval stores from North America directly. Therefore, her voyage and the views concerned with the Astrea explicate that the navy’s view about the naval logistics in the 1730s and 1740s and how the navy exploited naval stores production in Colonial America resulting from the naval stores policy in the eighteenth century.…

    January 12th 1872: It’s my day off today, so a few shipmates and I decided to wash our clothes that were starting to smell like dead fish. We are leaving Lisbon and it is a bright sunny day with bright white fluffy clouds in the sky. Today’s dinner was salted pork with potatoes and beard biscuits, and trust me I was so tired of those potatoes. Today as I walked over to my bed for the night I realized that we had only just begun a journey that would take months even years to finish. With this thought in my mind I started to worry that I hadn’t made the right decision getting on this ship for that long of a time, what was I missing back home, what wasn’t I going to see and do that my friends were doing right now.…
