Physics 11 Core Competency Self Assessment

Thinking

Critical and Reflective Thinking

During physics class I can, find and create data by completing experiments and labs according  to specific topics. I showed this when completing the Position- Time Graphs for Constant Velocities lab. During the lab I was able to create a data table with my group members by walking at 3 different speeds and measuring time and distance at a certain point. I was able to input this into my data table to help further complete the assignment.

 I was able to reflect on my own thinking by checking for errors throughout the lab. By doing so I was able to look back and correct errors that may have disrupted my data and graphs. 

I was able to analyze evidence to make judgements. This was shown in my work when analyzing the data in my data table then having an idea of what my graph should look like by the judgements I made earlier. This further on corresponded to my slope calculations as based on the graph I could make a judgement whether my slopes would be positive or negative depending on the lines created on the graph.
