Social Studies 11 Core Competency Self-Assessment

Creative Thinking

The project I chose to write about is the housing project. In this project I had to use my creative thinking skills in many different ways. First of all, I had to choose and evaluate a specific area to build my building. Then, I had to come up with a cost for rent. After that I had to design my building. This involved size of building, number of units, number of floors, number of bedrooms, etc. Finally, I had to create and draw my building from the outside. I used ibis paint X to draw my building plans.

In this project I excelled in my drawing skills and evaluation skills. My drawing is very neat, precise, colourful, etc. My evaluation skills were used to assess the area I planned to build my building.

I could have improved in my creative ideas. I could have added more detail and information about my building.
