My Reflection

Questions:

  1. Was I able to identify how the geography impacted the town/city with ease? How was I able to find how the physical geography impacted these areas?
  2. How did the technology personally affect my learning? What were the pros and cons of using maphub.com?
  3. Were you satisfied with the result of your design and solutions?
  4. How would you refine your assignment in the future?

Answers:

  1. Some parts of identifying how it impacted Jasper was easy for me, because for Physical Landforms and Vegetation, I thought it was easier because looking at my notes and looking at some (very helpful) websites, I think I really understood it much more better than I have before this assignment. Climate was a bit harder because it took me a while to think of how climate can develop the town 25 years from now. I found out how the physical geography impacted Jasper from mostly my notes.
  2. Technology affected my learning, because a few times I forgot to cite a website, thus I had to go back and either find what the website was, or to find another website and remember to cite this time. Some advantages of using maphub.com was that I learned how to use this website better and that I learned a lot from writing my notes into organized sentences with clear sentences. A disadvantage would be that maybe that I forgot to save citations/websites sometimes which led me to re-finding or finding a new website.
  3. I think I am satisfied with my work, because I learned a lot from this project and I feel that it was interesting to brainstorm 25 years from now for this project.
  4. In the future, I would perhaps try to add more sentences onto each point and try to procrastinate less.
