Life saving measures

I’ve taken away a couple things from these last few days. I’ve learned that the drug use crisis is technically a health emergency same as Covid. I also learned that to perform cpr it may take very long even hours of constant check compressions. Most importantly I learned about naloxone and how it can help save a life. The impact these lessons have had on my life are that I am now much more informed about how to save people as well as that I may have to be in a situation where I need to save a life. I’ve also been been a lot more informed about the biology of all these aspects

Critical and reflective thinking competency reflection

B: i am able to analyze evidence because I have shown this by seeing how I can pay attention during lessons and apply them directly after. I can also demonstrate this during my pe class introductions.

RSelf Study

How I Studied

Reflection

My collaboration skills were well demonstrated although, my time management and planning skills lacked during this course. I will in the future use a calendar and have set plans and days in order to have studied enough for the upcoming test or project. I plan to continue my  Japanese language acquisition by trying to speak it with friends and teach a family member or 2 some new words or phrases. If I could travel back in time I would tell myself to keep track of when things are and how to approach them best. I also would try to take note of more things and more ways that the tests and projects were similar to then make it easier on me next time.

Core Competency Reflection

  • Some skills I have developed to make my creative activities better are… 

My ability to co-operate and make compromises in order to best fit everyone involves interest as well as I have improved my concentration and ability to pay better attention.

  • When faced with ambiguity or setbacks, I… to advance the development of my ideas. 

Take a step back to make sure I don’t make any irrational decisions and see the big picture, this often allows me to then make the correct and most effective choice to lead to the most desirable outcome.

  • To celebrate an accomplishment such as ____, I … 

finishing a assignment or doing well on something, I like to relook at my progress and see how and why I did well on that thing, making sure to notice the little improvements and ways I changed

Core Competency Self-Assessment

I can work with others to achieve a goal:

I demonstrated this when doing the button dichotomous key project with my partner when we took both opinions and made a compromise to find the best solution. It wasn’t easy during the start of the project but as we found our rhythm and best way to complete the task it became much more efficient and easier.

Identity

My poem

“Who are you”, this is a general question everyone asks themselves sometimes as well as gets asked

There are infinite answers to this universal question 

The answer often varies and changes and will definitely change depending on who you ask

Who you are depends on yourself, no one else

You are who you choose to be

Still this can be a very difficult question 

I know I can choose who I want to be but

“Who do I want to be”

This is really the question people should be asking instead of “who are you”

I want to be the guy everyone thinks is friendly

I want to be the guy people look up to

I want to be the guy I would want my future kid to get raised by

Although this is who I want to be

 Unfortunately no soul is perfect and I’m not always able to be the exact way I want to be

I am the person that tries to be who I want to be


And that is the happiest and best version of me

Core Competency reflection

I show others I value their contributions by making sure everyone In the group gets time to have a say and everyone’s point of you and suggestions are used in a helpful way

When I need to work collaboratively with people I don’t know well, I first of all try to get to know them on a basic level and then see what I can do to bring the group together In a productive way where no one is excluded. 

When I need to boost my mood or refocus I take a quick break and try to realize the situation from a realistic stand point. A lot of the time I can let focus because I’m stressed so I find looking at the bigger picture calms me down fast and I end up getting the work done well. 

Some things I do to stay mentally and physically healthy include  making sure I keep my body active and get outside. I also found for my mental health that the more I hang out with friends and don’t isolate myself the better my mental health feels. I also found eating a good amount of healthy or good foods helps me feel a lot better too
