Commucation reflection:Coming up with our ideas for our invention, me and my partner had to communicate together to find out what we wanted to invent. We also needed to communicate very well when we where talking and answering questions from are peers and classmates. Throughout our invention fair I had to “Ask and respond to simple, direct questions”. For an example when we presenting are invention to our classmates so that they could fill out their sheets we had to respond quickly and have upright answers. Not only that when we had to explain a proposal to Mr Castonguay, we need to answer his questions and present are project very well and thoroughly. I think that I also demonstarted that “I can present infomation clearly and in an organized way”. As an example I think for our small poster that we made it was very organized and well put together. I think that it presented our information vert clearly because it had a drawing in the middle with labels telling what the parts did what and how they did it. It also showed how, when other classmates where looking at are poster they could fill it out easily with out having to ask any questions.

I think in our planning parts of our invention my partner and I did a very good job on “summerizing key ideas and ways we agree on it”. For an example are first idea was to creates some type of water proofing spray. But after we thought about it and how easy it would be to create and make we both agreed together that we wouldn’t use that idea. While we where also planning are idea for are invention there where “some ideas and different points of views that I didn’t always agree on”. For example when we where discussing about one invention that Josh may of thought was a good idea. But I did not agree on, I had to say in a respectful way why I don’t agree on it and why and offer what my suggestion is, or how we could improve on the idea. 

Although there were many good things I did demonstrate from this activity, there were some I also need to work on.  I think for next I do a partner project I can work on “I can take roles and responsibiliities in a group”. For an example I did all the poster for our project but Josh did the write up and the proposal. Even thought the poster is more important it took a-lot time less. I think next time I could help josh more by helping with the write up because I did take a-lot more time and effort. I also think that I can work on my time management. For a example I kinda blew off the poster until the night before. I think I should have done parts of it before the last night. By leaving it to the last night I think that it affected are poster because I think I could have spent more time colouring the poster because it wasn’t the most exiting poster but it got the job done. In conclusion I think I did a good job demonstrating the core competency communication but I think I could have done a better job doing some small things.
