Reflecting on My First Year

My Grade 9 Year

I have had a really nice first year at this school, and I have learned a lot. In math I learned about the basics of pre calculus. In science I learned all about cells, the periodic table, and did a bunch of experiments without blowing up the school. This year I learned that I work best on my own both in projects and assignments.

My favourite website

https://open.spotify.com/

Spotify is the most helpful website I used this year because it helped me get through long study sessions and relaxed me when I was stressed.

Favourite Video

My favourite video of all time is this masterpiece. It is an ad for salmon. It makes me so happy just to watch.

My Favourite Image

This is my favourite picture from this year because I took it when I was bored in science class and it was a funny picture at the time.

My Favourite Quote

My favourite quote was one from my friend that she told us after saying she used to collect peoples hair. “Geez i had their consent before they died” (TALKING ABOUT HAIR)

Persuasion and Advertisement Techniques

Persuasion and Advertisement Unit Reflection

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

If you forget that an advertisement is trying to make money and not help you then you will be more likely to get persuaded and buy things that you don’t need / want.

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

Ethical persuasion works so well because generally the people who are in the advertisement are trusted by the viewer, and that makes the people believe that the advertised thing is the best.

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

Snob shaming works on people because it targets there egos. It makes them think they are better then others because of the expensive soap that they use.

Core Competency Reflection

I knew my group was working well together when my partner and I each played to our individual strengths to go as fast as possible during this project.

One of the ways I ensured my group was clear on what we were doing was to go over multiple different ideas so we could get the best possible one, and then made sure we were both on the same page about it.

I sought, developed and weighed options as demonstrated by changing my original plan and over came the adversity of my own ignorance.
