Show and Tell Presentation Reflection and Self-Assessment

Curricular Response

  1. My greatest strength was being able to stand at the front of the room and be able to present, without being too nervous. Usually I’m too anxious and I kind of shut down, but I’m proud that I was able to overcome the nerves of presenting.
  2. Next time I would probably try to get the audience a bit more involved, instead of just asking questions and allowing the class to answer. I would try to make it a little more entertaining for everyone.

Core Competency Self Assessment

I thought my topic would be interesting because because I didn’t think many people would have heard of this movie – I wanted to do something that the class would learn from.
I watched my movie so that most of my information came directly from it and my ideas behind it. I thought it would be better to use ideas and opinions rather than just facts, as it would get the audience thinking more.

Positive Learner Identity

My strengths in time management really help me because it allows me to focus on my priorities at the time. For example, one day I had a chemistry test and an English paragraph due on the same day. I managed my time wisely so that I would be able to hand in my English assignment in time, but also have enough time to study for my chemistry test. I looked at what was worth more and focused a little bit more on my top priority.

Core Competency Reflection

Having good time management allows me to finish assignments for their due dates, but also not rush the assignments so that I can still put enough effort into them. Sometimes it can be difficult to hand things in on time and it can become stressful, but this challenge makes it easier to get everything done as I have a motivation to complete all my goals.
