Throughout completing this interesting project, I definitely demonstrated some core competencies. Most of them being in the Personal/Communication categories.

Communication

I inquire into and present on topics of interest and topics related to my studies– The “media source” that I chose for this project was the movie “Split.” Therefore, I presented and inquired into a topic that relates to my Psychology class. “Split” is a movie about a man who suffers from DID, relating to our unit on disorders.

I can understand and share information about a topic of interest in a clear, organized way– Completing this project shows that I clearly understood the assignment as well as the my “media source.” My powerpoint was well organized, everything was easy to understand , and there were many good visuals. 

Personal

I can show a sense of accomplishment and joy, I take pride in my work and myself– The self assessment shows that I have a sense of accomplishment and joy in myself and my work. I said that my powerpoint had good visuals, and was organized and easy to read. Additionally, I am proud of the work I did for this project, and of myself. 

I can identify my strength– The self assessment also shows how I can identify my strength. I was able to identify around four positive things about my end project. 

I work with others to achieve a goal:

I was able to easily work with Kyle and Brandon to achieve our goal of an “A”. We split the workload equally, reviewed each others sections and ensured that our data was clear and readable. We ended up achieving full marks on the assignment.

I find it easy to be a part of a group:

Being a part of a group is pretty easy for me. I always listen to other’s opinions and input and always include others during the assignment. This ensures that no one is left out, and there are no arguments or disagreements within it either. This is exactly what I did during this assignment, so everything went smoothly.

I take on roles and responsibilities in a group; I do my share:

Never have I once not done my share of a group assignment or project. I wouldn’t want any of my group members to not finish their part of the assignment, so I ensure that I always do mine. If I didn’t, that wouldn’t be fair to the others within my group.

I give, receive, and act on feedback to progress in my goals:

While we were completing the assignment, I completed my section and I had my group members look it over. They found some grammatical errors, so I was able to act quickly and fix them. I am able to receive and act on feedback.

I can reflect on my thinking:

When completing my paragraph, I really had to reflect on my experiences and thoughts of each of the apps that I tested. I was able to identify the app which was the best for efficiency and effectiveness. It ended up being Adobe Express, and I was able to reflect and articulate all my thoughts about it within the paragraph.

I can persevere over time to develop my ideas, and I expect setbacks and failure, but use that to develop my ideas:

When doing the Flyer portion of the assignment, I had a couple setbacks. However, I was able to learn from them and create and even better flyer. Initially, my poster looked very bland, the fonts were awkward, and the background didn’t fit the theme. After developing my ideas and learning from that setback I was able to create a vibrant flyer that looked clear and fun.

I can understand and share information about a topic of interestin a clear and organized way:

Before even starting my Carnival Table, I had to do some research one Carnival games and food, as well as how many tickets it usually costs for each of them. After looking through different example tables, and looking at different websites, I was able to successfully share the information I had learned. I believe that my Table is very clear and appealing to look at. It is simplistic and easy to read, but it also has some cool pictures and colors to keep peoples attention.
