Communication:

For this lab, I was able to demonstrate the skill, communication, because it was an important element of this lab, as well as any other labs conducted. Collaboration and communication were critical in this experiment since this lab could not be completed by a single individual. For example, my partner and I allocated duties so that we could make use of the time we had. By providing roles, we were able to finish this lab with a bit of extra time, allowing me and my partner to discuss the lab questions together. We were able to succeed in this lab because we listened to each other and shared ideas. To improve for the next time, I would want to discuss possible roles with each other, look over the materials and questions a day ahead of time, and begin working on the lab right away, allowing us to make the most of the time we have, and focus solely on the lab without worrying on how much time we had left.

Thinking:

During the process of this lab, a few strategies that I used to solve a problem I faced was simply asking my peers for help. As I sometimes have a hard time remembering stuff, I was not able to remember what tools the teacher used in this experiment. However, I was able to move past that smoothly as I asked the group working next to me for help. By doing this, I wasn’t wasting any time trying to figure things out myself. For next time, something I would do in order to improve would be taking a video of the procedure when the teaching is demonstrating how we would do the lab as it would help me remember all the steps accurately, allowing me to do my best in these labs.

Self-Assessment:

During this lab, I as able to support my peers as whenever they had any troubles or came up to me and my partner for help, we tried our best to help them. By doing this, I was able to strengthen my relationship with my peers which also encouraged me to ask for support to my peers if there is anything that I needed help with. in order to improve for next time, I would try to pay more attention and to remember what I am doing so that I can help my peers with confidence.
