Thinking core competency

The above artifact is a photo from a flame lab done in class. The lab consisted of putting a chemical on a Q-tip then putting it to the flame to see the flame colour change. We recorded our observations of each reaction the flame had to the chemical. Afterwards we got unlabelled chemicals and had to figure out what they were based on the flames reaction. I used the thinking core competency to determine what the unlabelled chemicals were. We then had to complete questions relating to the lab. Some questions allowed you to analyze your knowledge from the lab. Other questions required you to think deeper by gathering information from the lab and apply previously learned information to come to conclusions. I used thoughts from myself, my partner, the lab, and the classroom to respond to questions and participate within the lab.

My Advertisement

Persuasion and Advertising Learning Reflection

A) The advertising technique I used was the “special offer” technique. In my poster I showed the laptop would only be 50% off for that day. If this was a real advertisement, people would feel more encouraged to purchase this product. 50% off is a very big deal, and since it is only for one day, people are more likely to purchase the product.

B) I thought all the colours in the advertisement were appealing and would draw more people in to look at the advertisement, if it were real. I used fonts I thought would be eye-catching. I didn’t make the text overly-long. People would most likely come across this while doing another task online, so it’s best to have something simple that gets your point across written.

C) They should know the tips to draw people into there ads. Colours, fonts, and overall appearance of the ad are crucial to have your ad be successful. No one will take the time to read something if they don’t think it will be beneficial or worth their time.

Core Competency Reflection

One strategy or activity that stimulated my imagination on this project was looking over the examples on the PowerPoint. Seeing the various advertisements helped me get creative and generate ideas.

Some skills I have developed to make my creative activities better is using tools given to me. I can use materials and information given to me to improve my creative activities.
