circuit lab – what i learned

Core Competency Reflection

If there is disagreement within the group, I find it helpful to… chime in and try to deescalate the situation and pitch in with an idea to help if our project or task is Arry and they are disagreeing on how to fix it

When I need to boost my mood or re-focus, I… look to another group member to fill me back in on what we were working on to get myself back in the right headspace to get back on track with the assignment and be of help to my groupmates

my goal:

When I need to work collaboratively with people I don’t know well, i… try to be friendly, i introduce myself if we havent already met and i ask how their day was or at least i try to…

the reason I’m working towards this goal is because I get awkward around people I’m not used to or haven’t worked with yet, but I still try to say hello and we figure out a gameplan before anything else

Cirricular competency reflection

i understood, identified and explained the physical process that formed and shaped the area of the town i chose: i demonstrated this cirricular competency from the extensive research and information i provided on the physical aspects of oliver.

I learned how to put this on a powerpoint map and explain it: i demonstrated this cirricular compentency when i created a map that had all the corresponding icons for my physical , climate , and vegetation features for oliver b.c

i understood, identified and explained how those forms of vegetation created economic opportunitied either directly or indirectly: i demonstrated this cirricular competency from the research that i did to figure out the exact economic benefits of Ponderosa Pines and Antelope Brush which are found in my town.

Core Competencies Reflection

i asked and responded to questions to be an active listener and supporter: i demonstrated this core competency when i asked questions to better improve my powerpoint and meet the criteria. I also participated in classes when we were in the library for this project.

i worked with others in a time of research to acheive a goal: i demonstrated this core competency when i worked with my friend jayda to figure out the first steps into our projects so we could meet the criteria of the project.

i inquired into and presented a topic of interest and related to my studies: i demonstrated this core competency when i picked oliver as my town because it has a special place in my heart and i really enjoy talking about it wether its verbally or in projects like this one.

Is violence justified during a revolution or protest?

A) How did the use of AI assist you in developing this project?:  Perplexity helped me find information fast, which i could cite efficiently and correctly with the use of zbib.org which helped me finish my part of our project at the same pace as my partner.

B) How did you ensure that the work you created was still your own, rather than just a product of the AI: i took the information that i found and i cited it so that everyone could know where i got the information and i made sure to rewrite it in my own words only keeping 1 or 2 words out of the original information.

C) Did you agree with the position you had to argue? Why or why not? 

In hindsight, I didn’t agree with my side because I don’t think protests need to be violent. It just ends up getting you and a lot of other people arrested after the fact. And really, is it all that serious that innocent people need to be beaten up or killed just to make a point to someone who’s probably gonna brush off the protest anyway?

core competency reflection

Examples of where I communicate clearly and purposefully can be seen in my clear enunciation and confidence while delivering my script in the video attached at the top of this document. I think I had a good argument, and I acted well considering I don’t believe that protests or revolutions should be violent.

My strategies for collecting relevant information for specific tasks include: using Ai to my advantage but not relying on it, I only used the AI provided to us by the teachers, and i didn’t rely on it i independently went to the sources, cited the website and rewrote the information in my own words. It also includes independently searching through sources to make sure the website is credible and has relevant information to my argument to help my side and diminish credibility from my opponent.

my grade 9 year

Some words to describe my year are: fun, stressful, and challenging. I chose these words because although I had a lot of fun and I made new friends, the homework was smothering at times and was sometimes challenging. This year in textiles I learned that zig zag stitching can prevent fraying when you are sewing a seem. In socials I learned the causes of the French revolution and about revolutions in general. This year I really enjoyed musical theatre, this was my first ever theatre production and it was an unforgettable experience. This year I was most proud of the extending I got on my first French booklet, i chose this because this was the first time i had ever gotten an extending in school for anything.

A useful educational website

https://www.reverso.net/text-translation. I chose this website because it serves a translator and a dictionary. My French teacher also gave it to the class so its school approved. its very useful for any language class that you might need a translator for.

A useful educational video:

I chose this video because it is relevant to the grade 9 science curriculum of learning about atoms and different molecules. I also chose it because its a reputable source of information that teachers use to this day. it also is more interesting for kids then regular worksheets.

A useful educational photo:

i chose this image because it is relevant to the science 9 cirriculum. it is also helpful for studying if you have a test on atoms. it also is good to know the structure of an atom.

An Educational Quote:

” education is the foundation upon which we build our future – christine gregoire”

i chose this quote because it tells us that we need a good education to suceed in life. i also chose this because it is motivational for learning. i really like it in general.
