About the Activity
For this project we were given a scenario where our class’s plane has crashed on a deserted island. Furthermore, we had to create our own legal code to govern the island. The legal code we create must include, laws, a legal system, a way to enforce the laws, and etc.
Core Competency Reflection
I can ask and respond to questions to be an active, supportive listener. I chose this one because I asked my partner questions on how we can improve our code. Also, if he had any questions I would listen and always try to respond to solve his question.
I can understand and share information about a topic of interest in a clear, organized way. I chose this one because I understood the past legal codes and systems. Doing so, I used the knowledge to help create the legal code for our project. Then I shared the information in an organized way.
I can form new ideas to create new things. I can also build on the ideas of others. I chose this one because this project helped me develop this Core Competency. After understanding the past legal codes, I tried to create new ideas to be included in my legal code.
I can reflect on my thinking. I chose this one because when we were making our laws I had to reflect on my thinking. This project helped me develop this Core Competency by helping me rethink my decisions on what laws we should create.
I can ask open-ended questions to gather information. I’m working on this goal to help me gather much information as it will help with future projects. To achieve my goal, I will listen to other people’s questions and think of ways to create an open-ended question to gather the information I need.
