My Writing

Core Competency Reflection

Prompt 1:

My strategies for collecting relevant information for specific tasks include thoroughly rewatching certain scenes in the movie that happened in the beginning, middle and end of the movie. In this essay, I incorporated different scenes from the movie which supported my thesis in 3 different body paragraphs.

Prompt 2:

 I can contribute to and work with criteria to improve my own work; evidence of that is with my prior essay, I received more feedback on my work followed with a lower grade. I improved my own work by trying my best to use the feedback i had received in my last essay and made an effort into changing some mechanical and detail aspects in my writing to receive a better grade.

Prompt 3:

One strategy or activity that stimulates my imagination is rewatching the scenes that i want to add into my writing and taking notes of details and quotes that happened in the film.

Goal:

In discussions and conversations, I help to build and extend understanding by contributing my ideas on the topic. This is one goal that i would like to focus on as i head into my grade 12 year. As i didn’t contribute much in this class this year, i want to work on this because it can benefit both myself and my peers.

The core competency I used to complete this project is creative thinking. I used creative thinking by taking information from the article I chose and reading in between the lines and connecting it to two mental health disorders. I also incorporated my personal experience to the sport and the stress Stephanie Labbé had went through, just not to the same extent.

A core competency I used to complete the Social Psychology Monopoly assignment was Creative Thinking. I used my creative thinking to create each one of my groupings on the monopoly board and also to create my chance cards. I used creative thinking on the chance cards by building off of the example scenarios and developing my own. To create my groupings, I used the notes we were given to section them off. I also assigned each group a specific colour that I believed fit with the definitions of them.

Something new that I learned within the stats unit is how much clothing, technology and other big industries use stats to calculate how much of the product that is needed to make sufficient sales. I also learned a few different formulas and how to use them, and how to create a histogram.

I think I understood how to use the formulas pretty well and also how to use the percentages sheet. I also felt confident on how to use the statistics calculator.

One thing that id like to work on for next unit is coming into flex more often. Otherwise, I think the notes and workbook worked well for me.

Collaborating and Communication Core Competency

While working on the psychology research assignment I used collaboration and communication in several different ways. My group and I discussed our hypothesis and agreed on one we all believed was fitting, and we all worked collectively by everyone of us equally contributing to our assignment. I also collaborated with the rest of my peers in the class through the survey and getting them to respond to our thought out questions needed for our assignment.

We also used the core competency collaboration by all working well together and cooperating with each other.

Tomato soup & Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Making and Sharing Reflection

I created a food product, incorporating feedback from self, others, and prototype testing in the process of making the tomato soup my partner and I shared. I took feedback from my partner by asking them if they liked the flavour of the soup or if there is anything extra they’d like to add, and I also incorporated feedback from myself by providing my opinion on the taste. Identify and analyze new design possibilities, including how they or others might build on their concept. I did this while making my grilled cheese by identifying different and new designs for what to put in my sandwich. This was my first time added spinach and salami to my grilled cheese and I absolutely loved it!

Core Competency Reflection

I show that I value feedback from others in my group by incorporating their positive or negative feedback into my work and cooking. I especially value my cooking partners feedback and opinion because we have to get along to be a good cooking duo, and we are eating the same foods so we need to cooperate.

A prompt that I could work on in this class is if my group is not productive, we can establish different roles, consider everyones needs and everyone needs to put in effort.

Personal Awareness and Responsibility

I chose the Indigenous Vlog project because it showcases that I can advocate for myself. I do this by presenting my opinions and knowledge in a proper and respectful manner in assignments like these, by also considering others feelings. I also advocate for others in this project by sharing what I know on Indigenous peoples pasts and relations and also connecting it on a personal level.
