Core Competency “I can” statements

  • I can take on roles and responsibilities in a group, I do my share. I demonstrated this by doing my part in making the script and to check if it reaches the project requirements.
  • I can form new ideas to create new things. I can also build on the ideas of others. I demonstrated this by giving ideas about finding ways to incorporate things we learned in class and on the project criteria into the script. I helped build on some parts on the conversation to include stuff we learned in unit 4 of our Intro Spanish course such as vocabulary, sentence structuring, and new communication methods.
  • I can work with others to achieve a goal. I demonstrated this as I worked with my partner to make our script and present it to the class while working along the criteria.
  • I can develop a body of creative work over time. I demonstrated this as I was able to in collaboration develop our conversation script with it being under criteria. I also gained experience from this on a social aspect with presenting.

One goal moving forward

I want to improve on asking open-ended questions to gather information. I want to improve on this because asking questions can help get a better understanding on my tasks rather than doing the wrong thing because of not getting the answer to my problem. When I do ask questions and get answers I find to get a better idea on what my plan is for whatever I am doing (assignments, projects, tests, etc.) which can help me succeed in the future.

In the circuit playground unit, we were required to create a project where we would utilize adafruit circuit playground features that we would discover on our own. My project utilized features such as the accelerometer and touch sensor, 2 board features that we did not use in our other assignments therefore I had to search up how to implement these into my code. At first I thought this would be a nightmare of a project because I didn’t think I was going to be able to execute my project. I eventually did and succeeded as I stuck to my project plan and got it done. My project is a gravity wave program where using the circuit playgrounds accelerometer, touch sensor, and neopixels, it would simulate how water would be affected by gravity in real life based on how the circuit playground was held, and if the touch sensor gets input it will create a splashing affect on the water. I thought I did good in sticking with my plan and executing my project successfully as well as problem solving.

I can statements

  • I can make my ideas work or I change what I am doing
  • I can use my experiences with various steps and attempts to direct my future work
  • I can experiment with different ways of doing things

Core Competency

I belive my work above demonstrates the “Acquiring and presenting information” core competency as I had been able to present how the lab was done through the diagram at the top of the lab. I was able to present my calculations I got in this lab by labeling each material/surface combo and display the how I got the answer for each combination. I used tools such as a table to sort the friction for each material/surface combo to show what I first got from my lab before I jumped into the calculations. The diagram demonstrated what I did in this lab and how I got my information so that it can be repeated in the future. Everything was organized in a way the reader can view the work easily and efficiently as everything was in order from the diagram, to the lab results and then to the calculations which led to my final results.

Core Competency Reflection

My strategies for collecting relevant information for specific tasks include… staying on topic because it is important as it helps me collect the information to my task in not just an easier way but a faster way. I also just get the work done faster so I can work on other things that are important.

When I need to boost my mood or re-focus, I… take a small break from my work so I can take some time to just think about what I will do next instead of imminently thinking without planning. It also gives me a chance to look at the whole thing and fix anything that could help improve my work and get a potentially higher mark.

I make ethical choices such as… prioritizing my work in order to… get scores I want so I can succeed and not get stressed out if anything is due or overdue and have to rush it.

One goal I have for myself going forward is My support network is helpful to me because they… I want to improve on this so I can get a more broad support network so I can get help with my work faster. I also will explain in depth what I need so I can be successful.

My Advertisement

This is our advertisement for a Asus laptop on sale for 20% off.

Persuasion and Advertisement Techniques

This project is to advertise a laptop on sale that would appeal to people in Panem. We used an eye appeal technique to grab attention of the person looking at the ad that this laptop is on sale for 20% off. We highlighted the 20% off in yellow due to the brightness of the yellow which overtakes the other colours in the picture to grab every person’s eye. Our ad is a plain folk ad as it would appeal to anyone in Panem as its affordable and a valuable item to buy. The final thought for the reader would be to look into the laptop and buy it since its on sale only for a limited time.

This presentation helped me in group work in social and skill as I got more involved than past recent work with my contribution to this project. The second thing that it helped me in was the feedback as I in cases where I didn’t agree with a thing on our project told what could make it better in some cases. The third thing would be asking help, I asked help when really needed unlike the past where I would try to do it on my own which was a huge problem. The last thing would be building upon someone’s idea, I took criticism and suggestions from my group members to help make my contribution better as well as do the same thing with my other group members.
