Physical Geography Coral Competency Self-Assessment

Social Awareness and Responsibility

I can be kind to others, and support others when they need it. I can appreciate diverse perspectives on issues and can resolve problems respectfully and effectively.

Throughout this volcano project, I demonstrated social awareness and responsibility core competency by building and maintaining positive relationship with my partner. We worked collaboratively to communicate our information clearly and effectively. We divided and tasks and responsibilities equally for productivity. We indicated sophisticated understanding via test, images, and voiceover and tried to build environmental awareness during the presentation as well. We considered significant implications for people and the environment in the surrounding areas of the mountain we explored. The connection between earths plates and volcanic activity (the purpose of the project) is also clearly depicted in our presentation, which is the outcome of effective collaboration. We solved problems together whenever we faced challenges or obstacles while preparing for the presentation. We used the feedback from the teacher to improve and better understand our strengths and weaknesses.

I demonstrated and analyzed geographic significance in depth through the specific characteristics and significant implications of the volcano we explored (Mount Stromboli). My partner and I created a strong connection between earths plates and volcanic activity accordingly. My strength would be effective communication skill, which allows me to approach teamwork with positive attitude. However, I would like to improve on showing more patterns and trends by thoroughly analyzing causes and effects.
