SS Midterm Reflection

Core Competency Reflection

Examples of where I communicate clearly and purposefully can be seen in the monument we made. Our monument has a lot of meaning and my partner and I put a lot of thought into building it. The parts of our monument clearly convays the impacts of the battle and its easy to tell what is going on. On the graves it has the number 6,500 and a Canadian flag next to it. This number represents the number of dead and injured Canadian soldiers who have fought in the battle. I decided to put a Canadian flag so people clearly know that its Canadian soldiers and not soldiers in general. The guy on the top is leaning away and has a cloth to his mouth. You can tell that he is trying to get away from something harmful, which is what we were trying to tell.

Some things I think about before dividing tasks among group members include thier strenghts and what they are comfortable with. I let my group memebers decide what they wanted to do before I could. I was fine with any task but I wanted to make sure that they were comfortable with theirs. Their strengths and comfort carry on to their work. We wanted to have the best work possible so thats why we divided our tasks into our strengths.

I can work on representing and adressing multiple perspectives in this project by asking my group members who were doing the writing portion what they thought of the monument. My partner and I created the monument on our own and didnt show our other group members what it was going to look like. I should have shown our outline before we built it and asked for feedback. They could have had good ideas to put in the monument and we missed out on that.
