MY ARTIFACT

MY LEARNING

While reading the book, “Catcher in the Rye,” by J.D. Salinger I completed three projects all with different goals. The first project was creating a mind map with different quotes from the book, the second project was picking one character and discussing their personality, and the third project was creating a book cover, synopsis, and a recommendation. Before this project I already knew how to integrate quotes into a paragraph. After this project I had more knowledge on how to convey criticism respectfully in the form of a book review. I also learned more about how to create a synopsis without giving away major spoilers but still enough information to make a person want to read the book.

CORE COMPETENCY REFLECTION

An area of writing in which I feel confident to develop new ideas is in creative writing. I enjoyed the creative writing portion of the course a lot and I felt like I came up with my ideas fairly quickly.

When faced with ambiguity or setbacks I take a break and do something else to advance the development of my ideas. If I get stuck and don’t stop to take a break I get really frustrated and that is never fun so I take a break and come back to it later.

My Learning of CPR

CPR Reflection

Something that I learned that I didn’t know before was the difference between having a stroke and having a heart attack. Having a stroke effects mostly your brain whereas a heart attack effects mostly your heart. My key takeaway from the Theory or Practical CPR unit is the knowledge that I can save a life if it comes down to it. Knowing that I know what to do if a situation comes up if really cool to think about. This unit connects to the nutrition unit because you need to have good nutrition to reduce your chances of having a heart attack.

Core Competency Reflection

Examples of where I communicated clearly and purposefully can be seen when I have been practicing CPR. I had to come in and yell for help and that is a form of communicating purposefully.

I can describe how learning about CPR relates to my life because you never know who’s going to have a heart attack and when. I can help people if needed and you never know when people need help.

One of the ways I can see using this learning to help others is if I see someone having a heart attack, I can help them and hopefully help them to survive. I can use this to also help others to know what to do if they are ever in a situation where they need to know.
