Comparative Cultures Mid-Term Assessment

This is my Mesopotamia Timeline project

Cause and Consequence

When working on this project, I used the Cause and Consequence curricular competency. During this project, I identified two significant developments in Mesopotamia that I found most meaningful and worked to determine how they came to be using a Cause and Consequence chart. My strengths during this project were working to determine the underlying, immediate, and long-term causes and consequences that caused/ impacted the developments. I believe an area for future growth would be gathering more evidence and delving deeper into the details of the developments. Overall, though, the project turned out well.

Thinking CC

Throughout this project, I applied the thinking core competency skills to help me complete my project. My strengths included comparing information from online and textbook resources to help me better analyze the events/developments I was discussing. I also explored evidence to evaluate which events held the most significance in Mesopotamia. To enhance my understanding, I actively asked questions about the topics we covered and referred to previous assignments for comparisons. Furthermore, I consistently asked for constructive criticism from my peers and incorporated their feedback to better my project by adding more details. In the future, I plan to improve my projects by incorporating more of my thoughts and perspectives on why events unfolded and how they influenced other events.
