An example of something I have spent a lot of time learning about is how to write properly and express my thoughts. The work above is the journal assignment from class, and I think it is a very good assignment that helps me to expand and improve my critical thinking. I can contribute to and work with criteria to improve my own work; evidence of that is that after every assignment returned to me, I will look at the feedback and try to do a better job next time. Also, I will book flex or cent time in English when needed to ask questions or do extra practice to improve my learning.
I can form new ideas to create new things. I can also build on the ideas of others. This skill demonstrated on that I can adjust the template in Canva and add in more my own ideas. I persevere with challenging tasks and take ownership of my goals, learning and behavior. It is challenged for me to organize the brochure well and easy for people to read. I add in some visualize pictures as a reference for the customer to see while looking at my brochure. I can show a sense of accomplishment and joy. I take pride in my work and myself. While I am creating my own food truck brochure, I consider from the view as a customer, and trying to do something different then the common food truck.
Evidence that I can acquire information about complex and specialized topics from various sources, synthesize it, and present it with thoughtful analysis can be found in this piece that I created. This piece that I created is very relevant to today’s popular topic, AI. I demonstrated my understanding of what AI is and performed the topic by drawing my ideas out. I struggle with the composition of this piece a lot, as I do not have a complete image in mind. By reaching out to other artists’ work, I slowly build up my ideas from various artworks. I chose to use the most basic and simple material for this piece. Since the value drawing can perform a strong visual directly to the audience, I am very happy with how my final piece came out.
The “a” value: In this equation, the a value is -1/3. If the a value is less than 0 (that means the number is negative) the parabola will face downward. This parabola is wider than the standard parabola because the a value is less than 1, as it is a function.
The “h” value: In this equation, the h value is -5. When the h value has been subtracted in the equation, it makes the parabola shift horizontally to the right.
The “k” value: In this equation, the k value is -4. A negativek value makes the parabola shift vertical down. If the k value is positive, the parabola will shift up.
Significance:a, h and k values give a different forms to the parabola. They can decide the parabola is facing down or facing up; shift left or shift right; shift up or shift down.
Self-Assessment:
1. Give an example from this assignment where you represented the same mathematical idea in three different ways? (for example, as agraph, an equation and in words)
The equation of parabola is written. There is a picture of my parabola and standard parabola graph by using the DESMOS. I explain in word about how the a, h and k values make the different then the standard parabola.
2. Give an example from this assignment where you used mathematical vocabulary to demonstrate your understanding.
I use the mathematical vocabulary like: shifts, parabola, vatical, horizontally to help me better describe in this assignment.
3. Give an example from this assignment where you used formatting to share the information in a clear and organized way.
First, I use two colors to distinguish the standard parabola and my parabola. Second, The explanation is clearly written in sentences and list. I also bold the important words.
I would like to set my first goal as the critical think in the first semester. Critical think is very important for our learning. It can help me better understand and learn. We need to have our own idea to solve the problem. This skill is practicing our analyzing skill for how to fine a way to solve the problem. We need to keep open mindedness, to look and understand the same question from a different side and different way.
Communication
I hope I can practice my communication skill as my second goal in the first semester. I want to develop my communication skills. As I am not a speaking person, I hope I can be more confident to communicate with other people. Can be able to use this skill well in a group work or group project. To communication with the partner is very important, so learn how to communication is very important too.
Creative thinking
The third goal that I set is creative thinking. Creative thinking skill is very important for me as I love drawing. I need to practice this skill to help me get more idea and be more creative when I am creating art works. This is very important. As a work of art can reflect what kind of person you are and what’s your personality be like. I need to practice how to find a way to help me get more and more inspiration for my creation.
Racism is a belief that humans can be divided into groups or races based on the color of their skin, language, religion, and culture. It also believes that some races are higher than others in some areas. Everyone is not equal in society in the racism. People will have different rules, views, and behaviors about the race that is being discriminated against. Black-skinned people, Jews, Asians, and Muslims are the groups that getting the most discriminated race. This is a hard problem to remove.
The story “To Kill a Mockingbird” shows how a Black man tries to prove himself innocent of not raping a woman, but not successful. Even though Atticus has the proof. Just because Tom Robinson is black, then he needs to accept the punishment. This is racial discrimination. White people discriminate against Blackpeople. Moreover, it shows that racism has become part of the system of justice and is difficult to put right. Is very sad and angry that Tom Robinson is dead at the end. He should not die;he does not do any wrong thing. He should win by the proof that Atticus has in the court. Tom Robinson must get out of the court and continue his life. All the results are caused by the white judges discriminating against black man Tom Robinson.
Nowadays Canada, there is still a minority of racism happened. In the past two years, racism has happened against many Chinese people because of covid-19. Covid-19 started earlier in China. When most diseases spread out from China, other countries started to call it the “Chinese virus”. Some Chinese living in other countries began to be attacked. There was something similar happened to my sister. She was called the “Chinese virus” by a classmate at school. the classmate told her to go back to her country and not bring the virus here. Just because my sister is Chinese and wore the mask. These people just believed what they saw on the internet. They did not accept the fact. They just believed what their beliefs are and what they thought.
Racism is a very hard problem to solve. It is impossible to control everybody’s thinking and beliefs. If people’s consciences cannot be shaped by truth but shaped by racial prejudice, then the system of justice will fail to protect those who need helps. Luckily, not all the people in the world discriminate against others. They would try their best to help and protect someone who is experiencing racism and Propaganda to stop this behavior. I believe there is no more racism happening someday in the future. It will be a more peaceful and loving world.
This is a horizontal line example with the point is (0,5), equation is y=5.
Horizontals line always have the zero slop, as there is nothing on the x line. Then 0 divided by any numbers Is equal 0. It can be seen as all the point on a graph on y-intercept has the same value.
This is a vertical line example with the point is (-3,0), equation is x=-3.
Vertical line always Is undefined. As no number can be divided by zero, so is undefined. It can be seen as all the point on a graph on x-intercept has the same value.
