What I learned In Lab 20C

A Titration is a method used to to find the concentration of a known acid or base through the use of an indicator. In lab 20C we used a titration to find the concentration of HCL using NAOH and Phenolphthalein. The endpoint of a titration is when the acid and base have an equal concentration and have therefor neutralize each other. The end point in lab 20C was when the Phenolphthalein turned pink for fifteen seconds after a drop of NAOH was added. We found that the concentration of HCL was approximately 0.129 plus or minus 1.6 percent.

Core Competencies Reflection

My strategies for collecting relevant information for specific tasks include following the procedure for the lab carefully and thoroughly.

I use evidence to make judgements or decisions as demonstrated in this in my calculations after the lab was completed as I used evidence from it to find the concentration of HCL.

my goal is that when I need to boost my mood or re-focus, I want to do so calmly and quickly. I will do this by counting to ten in my head.

Reflection on my career research report in CLE 10

Curricular Competency Reflection

The three careers that I have chosen are Aerospace Engineer, Supply chain analysis, and a lawyer. I chose these jobs because I find all of them interesting and have high education requirements which I feel I can meet and put my talents to good use. After I finished my research I now see that many jobs require lot’s of work and money to pass the courses needed to apply for these jobs. I also now understand why many people attend years of university just to achieve a certain career. After I had completed this assignment I know that out of the three I want to be an aerospace engineer as it is the job which uses the most creativity and allows me to create planes or equipment for them. The program I am most interested in is the Aerospace engineering course at University of Concordia. I am not yet ready to pursue this course because I do not yet meet the requirements nor do I have the money to pay for the tuition, also I am not yet out of high school. In order to be ready I think I will need to study the requirements for the university and meet as many as I can so I can start the course as soon as possible. I will also need to get a part time job to pay for the tuition and the schooling.

Core Competency Reflection

This is how I select images and words to create impact for different audiences, I look at the image and think to myself is this image interesting funny or does it help prove my point and if the answer is yes to any of these and it is appropriate for the presentation then I will add it to the presentation.

I seek, develop and weigh options as demonstrated by my ability to research and choose three different careers in this project. I had to do light research on several different careers and then pick three that had enough differences to offer a good insight to the variety of careers available now.

An example of something I have spent a lot of time learning about is aerospace engineering I learnt a lot about this subject as I had to give a presentation to my class. I spent several days gathering information on schools and programs I could do and the job in general.

Core Competency Reflection

My strategies for collecting relevant information for specific tasks include searching for a good reliable source reading it and putting the information in my own words.

One of the ways I ensure my group is clear on the common purpose is to Check in on what they have done and offer advice to them.

I want to be clear on the difference between simple “group work” and collaboration

I am working on this goal because I feel I need to work with my group more as I tend to not communicate as much as I should. I plan to accomplish this goal by talking to people who I don’t know more often to get better at group work and communication.

My Learning of CPR

CPR Reflection

The four R,s are risk, recognize, react, resuscitate.

I believe it is important to to learn the four R,s because it is a good way to remember what you need to do in case of an emergency. In my life this will help me to help people if they have a heart attack and will allow me to save a life.

Core Competencies Reflection

Examples of where I communicated clearly and purposefully can be seen during the practical test for CPR when I clearly vocalized what I was doing as I preformed CPR.

One lesson that stimulated my thinking about the importance of CPR was when we had a guest speaker come in and tell us about his experiences, it really opened my eyes to what cardiac arrest actually looks like in the moment it happens.

When I need to boost my mood or re-focus in a classroom for PHE, I try to stay calm and focus on the task I need to accomplish. This allows me to focus on the task at hand and complete it to the best of my abilities.

SS Midterm Reflection

Core Competency Reflection

This is how I select images and words to create impact for different audiences. First I look at what the feeling of the presentation and find images and text that will reflect that feeling in the best way. I showed that I did this through my choices of image I put into the power point.

If I notice that we have an incomplete part of the project , that’s a sign that my group needs help and we can get support by asking our teacher to help us and reestablish what we need to do. I showed this by getting my teacher to explain to my teammate what a monument was.

A goal I have for my self is to be able to communicate with my team better so I can understand what we have done and how we are doing on the project. I plane to improve on this by talking to different people more often so I can comfortably talk to other people.

semester Reflection

Blood Red, Snow White by Marcus Sedgwick — Reviews, Discussion, Bookclubs, Lists

ethical Judgment

This semester, I completed an independent historical fiction novel study by reading blood red snow white which was about a man named Arthur and his Journy through the Russian revolution. In my book Aurthur teaches himself Russian by reading children books and soon the newspaper, I believe his decision should be emulated because it showed that he is devoted to his dream of living in Russia. I also practiced using concrete evidence from a text. One of the best pieces of evidence I used for this project was the way the narrator described, and worded the story because it told me exactly what I needed to know and an easy way to prove it. Deciding whether or not to emulate this person’s actions matters today because, it is a good way for me to practice setting and using a criteria to judge other people based on their situation.

core Competency Reflection

I use evidence to make judgements or decisions, as demonstrated in my novel study project when I had to judge a decision that a character made. I had to then find evidence in the text to prove my statement.

An example of where I built upon someone else’s ideas is when we were having group discussion, and I made a contribution to elaborate on my classmates’ statement.

I remain open minded as I explore viable options or alternative approaches, like when I was doing a research project on the American revolution, I made sure that my evidence was correct and unbiased.

I have valuable ideas to share about the topics we discuss during class and do so by listening to others then presenting my own ideas.

4. PHE9 Reflection

My strengths are That I can help people when they need it that I am athletic, and I am always willing to improve.

I have one main stretch and that is the fact that I am not good at meeting new people.

I can improve by meeting new people and talking to them.

Core competency reflection!

I can work well with other people if I have to.

I can participate actively can in activities.

I can work to improve my abilities.

I work with others to achieve a goal. I chose this because i the dance unit I had to work in a group to create a dance.

I reflect on my thinking. I chose this because in the 12-minuet run, I reflected on my performance to judge myself on how good I did.

I persevere with challenging tasks and take ownership of my goals, learning behavior. I showed this during the fitness unit when I pushed myself to reach my goals in fitness.

 Is Violence justified in a Revolution?

A) How the use of AI assisted me in developing this project. In this project I used Ai to search google for me instead of looking for every tiny bit of information myself.

B) How I ensured that the work I created was still my own, rather than just a product of the AI. I made sure that I didn’t use Ai for everything only for searching google. I also looked at the site that the Ai gathered the information from to make sure I understood it and could put it into my own words.

C) I agreed with the position I had to argue. I agreed with the position that some violence in a revolution can be a good thing rather than a bad thing. I believe this because in the world we live in it is hard to make a huge change to the way we live without a little bit of violence.  I also believe that as long as the violence is useful and comes in the necessary amount, accomplishes what it was used for, and makes the lives of people better after the revolution, the violence was a good thing.

Core Competency Reflection 

My strategies for collecting relevant information for specific tasks include making sure I understand the information I am reading, check to see if the information makes sense and doesn’t undermine my other arguments or information, and if I don’t understand the information, I will ask somebody else for their opinion whether it is relevant or not.

When I need to work collaboratively with people I don’t know well, I usually get right to the point in a polite way to make sure we are getting off to the right start. I will check in with my group members to make sure they are doing their part well and will help them if they need it. In the end I make sure we have finished the project in a way that we are all happy with. basically, I make sure the work is done and move on.

Public speaking

I have learnt many things about public speaking this term. For example, when you are trying to get your audience’s attention you have to make what you are saying interesting or else, they will stop paying attention and stare off into space. When people are Presenting you have to be a good audience member by paying attention or at least looking like it, staying quite until the end of the presentation at which you should give some kind or supportive words. If you want to get people’s attention while you speak, I find it helps if you look confident and make sure your words are loud and clear. I have picked up a few things about public speaking over this term in English 9.

Collaboration Core competency Reflection

I show others that I truly value their contributions by listening to their ideas and using them in the project to improve it and make it better.

Some things I think about before dividing tasks among group members include, I think about how much work my teammates are capable of doing and, is the amount of work given fair.

I show that I value feedback from others in my group by listening to them and changing my ideas to suit their feedback.

I know the group is working well together when I see new ideas being created and active work being done. I also know when I hear people effectively communicating with each other.

My goal

I can feel comfortable when speaking in front of people I don’t know.

I want to be able to do this so that I can speak well in front of groups I need to talk to.
