Is violence justified during a revolution or protest?
How did the use of AI assist you in developing this project?
AI helped during the development of this project by helping me get ideas to add onto my argument and examples i could use that supports my argument. It also helped me get ideas for all my argument and starting them.
How did you ensure that the work you created was still your own, rather than just a product of the AI
I ensured that my work was still my own and not AI by implementing my ideas and the AI’s ideas. I also altered the AI’s ideas and worded how I would say it.
Did you agree with the position you had to argue? Why or why not?
I do agree with my position in the argument because i truly believe that there are better way to solve things rather than going straight to violence. As like i said in my rebuttal violence always only leads to more problems and getting yourself in more trouble.
Core Competency Reflection
I am clear on the difference between simple “group work” and collaboration as evidenced by
My evidence on knowing the difference between group work and collaboration is my partner and I split the work evenly and helped each other with each others arguments and rebuttal. But we both knew that we had to do our work evenly so its not one sided, where someone wasn’t doing more than the other.
One of the ways I ensure my group is clear on the common purpose is to
One way I ensure my partner is clear on the goal is to communicate when the things need to be done and what they need to do to be successful in the partnership.
Figuring out what my protagonists looked like in the story was quite difficult because the descriptions were quite vague. But through various quotes in the book, I made an educated guess on what the protagonists looked like.
I chose my plot points by bookmarking any event in the book and comparing them when I finished the book. I reflected on how major the event was and how important it was to the story and made a organizing sheet for the ones I chose.
I chose the settings by seeing how much time they spent in that area and how much conflict went on in that setting, for me it was London 2026-27. The setting is significant because it helps the reader understand all of the futuristic aspects of that time and what can happen to the world in a couple of years.
· Explain what the word mood means and how/why you picked the song that you picked?
Mood – a temporary state of mind or feeling that a reading can feel while reading a book. The song I picked helps visual the intensity of the situations and conflicts in the story.
Core Competency Reflection
When I need to boost my mood or re-focus, I make sure to finish a certain amount of work or reading then rest to stay motivated and do more my next work session. I find if I don’t do this my work starts to lack quality and I procrastinate for longer periods of time.
This is how I select images and words to create impact for different audiences, I specifically chose my images to help my audience imagine the events more clears. I find that a good image helps me imagine the situation a lot better and most likely goes for others.
I appreciate feedback on… and prefer it comes in the form of…, For me, I like feedback in the form of constructive criticism as it helps me work on my weak points and helps me become a better writer
An Explanation of why Internet Safety and being Positive is Important
Internet safety and being positive online is important because it can affect whether you get a certain job, get into a post secondary and being safe from blackmail. Being aware of what you put online is really important to keep your identity and personal information hidden. Browsers and search engines are constantly keeping track of what you put out online and what u do online. For example, what you post on social media, the things you write in the comment section of a social media post, subscriptions you signed up for and your banking information. These can all affect your digital footprint crucially because they can be lead to blackmailing or identity theft. A way people steal your private information is you downloading malicious malware, clicking random links and signing into fake websites. To avoid this is to look for clues in the links or websites. Majority of the time something will be off, whether the font or text size is different, the link being different from the real website or sketchy download sites. Another way to stay safe is putting your social media accounts to private or friends only so, you can decide whether you let someone see your post. So being positive online keeps your digital footprint cleaner.
Examples of unsafe and negative activities
Cyberbully is one of the biggest issue online because it causes many children to have emotional problems. This can heavily impact your Digital footprint. Being aware of how much of yourself you put online is really important because if you put too much of yourself on the internet you’ll be phished as and others may be affected from phishing such as a predator situation. Never share inappropriate photos of yourself or others, because it is impossible to delete those photos. Also doxing someone’s personal information is illegal and can be almost career ending if it goes on your digital footprint.
How To Stay Safe
Staying safe online includes keeping all your passwords and personal information safe and only with you. Which can include not sharing your passwords with friends, they could potentially screenshot and mess with your account, and minimizing how much information you put out about yourself on social media accounts.
Personal/Social Competency Reflection
I make digital ethical choices such as (consider commenting on others’ posts, thinking about what you put online) in order to keep my private information safe and digital footprint clean. As well as thinking about what I post on my social media accounts in order to not get phished as.
I think my experiences as a digital citizen, such as social media influenced my choice of course/hobbies/ teams because there are many videos out there of games, sports or potential interest that have inspired me to learn those things. One of the biggest things social media has influenced me to do is start playing volleyball.
My strengths as a digital citizen include helping others that are less experienced, They contribute to my classroom through simple helping people sign into a new website they’ve never used or helping a teacher with technical problems with electronics. I find this is the most helpful way to help a large group of people especially if the teacher is trying to start a lesson quicker.

After each lab, my understanding of the scientific method has improved greatly because after my first experiment (golf tower), I learned two things through testing and seeing. The first being in the testing phase, always seek out the flaws. In the golf tower challenge my partner and I encountered our tower sections were uneven. which made it lean and the golf ball just falling through the tower. The second being never get lazy with your design. This is because we got lazy in some parts of our design which made our tower have0 flaws in the part we got lazy on.
With my second experiment (ball launcher) I applied these things I learned from my last experiment. Although it wasn’t perfect and still had flaws, my group and I fixed majority of the issues to where we had good results. Our main issues being not being able to aim where the ball went and the consistency of the distance it went.
Core Competency Self Assessment and Creative Thinking
Why is it Important to Celebrate our accomplishments:
I believe its important to celebrate our accomplishments because it build confidence in yourself and classmates and pushes you to reach for a bigger goal next time. The Lab I’m most proud of is the ball launcher because my teammates and I had a better understanding of what to look for and do, which made us confident in our design.
What Strategies did you use to Overcome those Challenges:
Some strategies I used to overcome those challenges were using inductive learning to seek out the flaws of our design. Then used deductive learning to see if our solutions to our flaws worked. Another strategy my group used is brainstorming new ideas if our original planned wouldn’t work.
Describe your experience with understanding of the Scientific Method doing the 2 labs?:
my experience with the scientific method through labs bettered my understanding, through talking with classmates and teammates about our designs and hypothesis. This has helped me a lot with remembering each step and my general understanding of the scientific method
Tell me how you did the following:
A) I demonstrated that I can create new things when I my teammates during both labs were stuck on a issue and brainstormed new ideas and combined our ideas with classmates designs. for example, on our ball launcher we were stuck on how to plant the launcher onto the cardboard, so we took a look around the class and inspired our tape design off another groups.
B) I demonstrated that I can build on the ideas of others when my friend and I were doing the golf tower challenge. We both had different ideas on how to make it as tall as possible. But with lots of brainstorming and final tweaks, we came up with our design.
C) When trying new things, I expect setbacks and failure and use them to develop my ideas. An example of this from the Scientific Method labs would be when we did our golf tower. We expected setbacks because of the inconsistency of the tubes building up and the base leaning one way a bit more. But we resolved this problem by leaning the tower the other way to act as a counter balance. For the inconsistent tubes we just rerolled them until it was stable enough to gold the golf ball.
