Reflection Question- Is violence justified during a protest?

A) how did the use of AI assist you in developing this project

I gave up on the AI in the end

B) how did you ensure that the work you created was still you own, rather then just a product of AI

understand the material and put it into your own words of your understanding.

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

really it depends on the situation but for the most part yes.

Competency Reflection

My strategies for collecting relevant information for specific tasks include: looking up newspaper and magazine articles relevant to the task; looking up studies in journals that are relevant to the task; and looking at sources cited by the materials I already have. For all of these I evaluate the source itself to make sure it is a reliable source on the topic.

I am clear on the difference between simple “group work” and collaboration as evidenced by how my partner and I constructed our project. We worked for several hours, looking up and gathering information together and decided in a way that was fair to both of us who was going to take which part as neither one of us felt strongly either way at the start. We then worked on our own constructing our arguments from the work we had done together. Finally, we came back together to complete our project. At this point we were able to help one another with our arguments and put them together in a way that made sense both from the our own perspectives and as a conversation or disagreement on a topic.

1. The Frasier river was formed by the snow melting on mountains and flowing down slowly carving out the land. Hope being located by the Frasier river brings both tourists and fish to the city. Tourists come to Hope to see the Frasier canyon. The town of Hope and the camp grounds around it provide a place for new comers to stay.

Forests

large amount of forested areas due to lots of rain and productive soil creates a large logging and forestry industry.

The mines are another source of income with the valuable minerals that can be mined from the area.The cascade mountains were made by tectonic plates crashing into each other. This process provided a well developed area with lots of minerals and money to be made mining said areas.

Truism

The campground is located near a lake and when people go camping they are going to need supplies, which they can buy from the near by town of Hope.The urban foretasted area of Hope attracts hikers and campers from out of town and out of the country of Canada. Because of this the town of Hope profits off of “Canada merch”

Railway

The railway a key source of the city of Hopes income, transporting passengers too and from the area. But the dominant amount of income being made is the import and expert of raw martials.​ Such as lumber and raw minerals.

Climate

Heavy orographic rainfall, which is when clouds come in contact with mountains the clouds lose water in order to become less dense. letting the clouds rise over the mountain, this is also called the rain shadow effect. Because of this to this people are going to need umbrellas and rain jackets in order to stay dry.​ Creating a market for rainy outdoor gear. Warm temperature due to the tropical winds interacting with the artic winds creating the favorable temperature that in turn promotes better tourism and agriculture.

Core competency reflection

I can understand and share information about a topic of interest in a clear, organized way. I understood the information associated with this assignment and I was able to put it into an organized format to present to my teacher.

I can think about what I am going to convey and to whom I will convey it. In organizing and compiling the information needed for this assignment I was thinking about my teacher who is going to be the one who sees it.

I can give, receive and act on feedback to progress in my goals. After having my sibling look at this assignment I made some changes that will help me not only in this assignment but to make my future assignments better.

I can recognize my emotions and use strategies to manage them. I always have to contend with not feeling like I have done a good enough job and my general anxiety over handing in projects. I was able to overcome the anxiety and complete the project. I am working on asking for more help this year and I have probably asked for more help this year than all my other years of school combined. I’m still working on it because I still usually don’t ask even when I need to.
