Core Competency Self Asessment

Critical and Reflective Thinking

Creativity – I possess this leadership quality because I am very creative and I come up with lots of ideas. For example, I was working with a group during science class and we were working on how we could present our cell cycle project, and I provided ideas and plans to help all of us out.

Communication – I am very good at communicating with others which makes me a good leader because I can easily talk to others and demonstrate my ideas.

Work ethic – My work ethic is something I am working on throughout this course.

Decision making – I need to work on making smarter and more practical decisions throughout this course.

I can work with others to achieve a goal. 

I chose this prompt because I’ve always known that two minds work better than one and I love collaborating with other people and the feeling of working towards a goal with your peers because it’s a great way to connect with others around you and learn new things off of other people’s ideas and strategies. I especially love group assignments and projects because it feels refreshing to work with others.

Positive Social Media

Positive Social Media Posts

Reflection

I think positive social media posts are very important because your digital footprint reflects on you in the future and whatever negative thing you post will always be out there. Posting positive things not only make you seem like a kind person, they also reflect well on you when you apply to university. If there are images or videos of you participating in illegal activities, or if your posting things that are disrespectful to groups or people, than this can really decrease your chances of being accepted into colleges, universities, and even jobs and careers. This is why you should only post things that are positive and ideal, and don’t overshare.

Core Competency Reflection

I can inquire into and present on topics of interest and topics related to my studies.

I can understand and share information about a topic of interest in a clear, organized way.

I can represent my learning and tell how it connects to my experiences.

I can make choices that keep me safe in my community and online.

I can understand that my identity is made of many interconnected elements. I chose this one because my identity is important and I learned to make sure that my identity online is always positive.

I can identify how my actions affect the community or environment and I can make positive change. I chose this one because posting positive things will create a positive environment online and reflect well on myself and my community.

An example of an idea I developed that was new to my peers is creating a realistic looking fake instagram post, reel, and story.

I can analyze evidence to make judgements. I chose this prompt because this has helped me realize the importance of your digital footprint after seeing people post negative and inappropriate things online.

I can ask open-ended questions to gather information. I chose this prompt as a goal I’m working towards because asking open-ended questions will help me much more gather information than asking straight forward questions. I will work towards this goal by asking myself what I specifically am curious about.
