My Learning of CPR

CPR Reflection

What was something you learned that you didn’t know or consider before?

During this unit, I have learned many things that I did not know about before, and one of them being the process, stages, and symptoms of diseases and attacks to the human body like heart attacks, strokes, and cardiac arrests.

What is a key takeaway from the Theory or Practical CPR unit? 

The key takeaway from this (CPR) unit is the importance of CPR. Learning how to perform CPR correctly can save someone’s life; however, even if you do not know how to do CPR on someone, do what you can and try your best because trying a little is better than not trying at all.

How does this unit connect to the nutrition unit learned previously?  

The CPR unit connects with the nutrition unit since they are both associated with health. A major factor of heart attacks is a bad diet and lack of exercise, and an unhealthy diet can also clog arteries.

Core Competency Reflection

During group CPR practice, I communicated instructions clearly to ensure everyone, including me, understood the proper technique. This helped I and my group perform CPR more confidently and correctly.

Learning how CPR can save lives made me realize its importance in real life situations. It motivated me to practice more and take the skill seriously.

I can use my CPR skills to help others in emergencies, which gives me confidence in making a difference. This learning has also made me feel more responsible and prepared.

Curricular Competency Reflection

To create my posters, I drew inspiration and gathered information from each brands unique identity and visual lifestyle. I researched high end car advertisements, focusing on sleek, minimalist aesthetics that highlight luxury and performance. To capture this, I used Adobe Photoshop and included images off google and used fonts and colours that matched the brands tone- elegant for Porsche and futuristic for BMW. The process included going over the posters many times where we adjusted the layouts and colour to make sure they fit the luxury feeling. After creating the posters, I looked at how well they represented each brand and asked my partner for feedback (vice-versa) to see what worked and what could be improved. A goal I have for future assignments like this are making the poster more eye-catching.

Core Competency Reflection

Communication Prompts:

I select images and words that make a strong impact on specific audiences, like aiming to highlight luxury for car enthusiasts or a relatable message for a general audience. I also gather information from various sources, like brand research and competitor ads, to ensure that my work is correct and done to my best ability.

Collaboration Prompts:

I understand the difference between basic “group work” and true collaboration, which involves everyone contributing ideas and working towards a shared purpose. One way I ensure our group is clearly aligned is by clearly defining our goals and making sure everyone understands their role.

Critical and Reflective Thinking Prompts:

I remain open minded as I explore alternative approaches, like when I included more exampled for the writing part assignments after getting feedback from my teacher for past assignments. Others find my feedback useful because I give detailed and informative feedback.

Persuasion and Advertisement Technique

Persuasion and Advertisement Unit Reflection

· Why is it important to remember who benefits from the advertisement when you view an advertisement?

It is important to remember who benefits from an ad you view because it helps you see the advertiser’s goals. Knowing who gains from the ad also allows you to think critically about the message and decide if you trust the information or if it is just trying to sell you something that you might not need.

· Choose one form of persuasion and explain why it is effective in persuading you/an audience: logical, ethical, emotional

I chose emotional persuasion because I think it is the most affective one when trying to gain consumers attention. It connects more with people and is also more appealing. I personally too, feel lured from emotional persuasion more than the other two form of persuasions.

· Choose an advertising technique and explain why it is effective in selling a product

The advertising technique that I chose was glittering generalities. Even though glittering generalities might not give much information, it still connects with emotional persuasion in convincing consumers to buy their products.

Core Competency Reflection

The two Core Competency Prompts that I chose were “This is how I selected images and words to create impact for my planned audience” and “One strategy or activity that stimulated my imagination on this project was…” “This is how I selected images and words to create impact for my planned audience” I selected my images, words and techniques based on what my advertisement was for and what attracted to me more. By doing this I could relate to my target audience and judge how effective my advertisement is and if I personally would buy the product. “One strategy or activity that stimulated my imagination on this project was…” There were a few ways that helped me become more motived to make my advertisement more creative. One of those ways was searching up different advertisements. By searching up different advertisements it became easier for me to brainstorm different ways to make my advertisement more unique and appealing to my audience.

What are 3 core competencies you demonstrated with the Storyboard Assignment? 

The three core competencies that I demonstrated in this assignment were creative thinking, critical thinking and reflective thinking, and personal awareness and responsibility. I chose creative thinking because I can form new ideas to create new things. I can also persevere over time to develop my ideas while expecting setbacks and failure but using it to my advantage instead and improving my creation. I chose critical thinking and reflective thinking because I can analyze my evidence to make judgement and reflect on my thinking as well as asking open ended questions to gather information to make sure I am confident and know what I am doing. For my third core competency I picked personal awareness and responsibility. This is because I am someone who takes pride in my work and can show a sense of accomplishment and joy in myself.

My First Year

My Grade 9 Year

During my first year of high school, I had many new experiences and adjustments. From trying to find my classes to meeting new classmates, it was both exciting and challenging. I had many goals like achieving good grades, having some extracurricular involvement like joining clubs, improving my personal growth and building my confidence, and just keeping an open mind and exploring new things. While I have not been able to accomplish all of these goals, I will be working harder to do so. I have discovered subjects that I am enjoying, which has also helped me in those classes. I also realized I learn best by writing something many times over and over. I used this technique during Spanish while I was studying for tests and I got perfect scores for many of them. However, there are some things that I have struggled with or I am. When I am having difficulty with something, I usually ask my teachers to explain more or get help from my peers. Overall, I am the most proudest of being confident in myself and being able to talk to everyone without feeling extremely stressed.

A Useful Educational Website

https://www.youtube.com/

I chose YouTube as the educational website that has helped me learn. The reason for this is because throughout the years, YouTube has helped me learn many things like math, science, or any other topic.

A Useful Educational Video

A video that connected and reminded me of school is the Biz Kids on saving and investing for the future. The reason I chose this video is because our business teacher has shown us many Biz Kids videos on things like stocks, investing, and what is a contract.

A Useful Educational Image

This is a picture of a book that I am currently reading for English. The reason I chose this image is because this book has brought me to like reading more and has also taught me life lessons as well.

An Inspirational Quote

“The capacity to learn is a gift; the ability to learn is a skill; the willingness to learn is a choice.” Is a quote by American author Brian Herbert. While searching for quotes, this quote stood out to me. The reason for that is because lately I have been very drained to study making me learn less. This quote says that I always have the choice to learn.

In science this semester we had three unit’s chemistry, biology, and physics. We had many labs for every unit and my favorite Lab was onion lab. This is because I have never looked at a cell that close and seeing every stage was very intriguing. I also learned many things from the writing part as well like the calculations you have to do to get how much cells are in each stage. I also learned to speak up more like answering a question when no one else is and giving my thoughts and what I think it is even if it isn’t the correct answer.

Reflection Question- Can Violence Be Justified During a Revolution?

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

I used AI to help me make this project by searching up my question and arguments. I also used AI to help me cite sources.

B) How did you ensure that the work you created was still your own, rather than just a product of the AI

I made sure that the things I wrote were my own my wording it differently, as well as making sure that I put my sources.

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

I somewhat agree with the position that I was arguing for. This is because I think killing thousands of people is cruel and heartless but at the same time, I get what the people felt since they were living such an unfair life not having any rights.

Competency Reflection

One of the ways I ensure my group is clear on the common purpose is to ask everyone what they are doing and double checking.

When I need to work collaboratively with people I don’t know well, I communicate with them to get to know them better. Doing this can also help to find out what we have in common and our common interests so that we can work better together.

Core Competency Reflection:

Some of my preferred strategies for maintaining a healthy, balanced online presence includes making sure I don’t spend too much time on social media. I also like to search and learn more about current situation around the world instead of watching videos that won’t teach me anything, however that doesn’t mean not taking a break and scrolling on TikTok for a while. I also make digital ethical choices such as consider considering what others would think before posting something that will be personal in order to protect my privacy and others as well. I think my experiences as a digital citizen has influenced my choice of course, hobbies, and teams. that is because since being active online i have found many things that interest me.
