French Revolution Radio Broadcast

Reflection:

Here is evidence I can generate ideas with my friends to make the video interesting for the listeners.  I can build my friend and I’s ideas onto of each other to make a more interesting video.  I can develop ideas through learning the French Revolution and take evidence from that.  I can use my writing and express what happened in that time period.  I can take risks with adding ads

I can further this by, creating more ideas, have more speaking roles, have more time in the video or more facts included

Core Competency Creative Thinking:

Here is evidence that I can…

Generated ideas with my friends to come up with an invention, I built upon each others imaginations of the jacket to make it nice and have a general idea of what it would be.   I developed ideas for what the invention would be.  I used setbacks to advance my creative thinking in creating the jacket with my friends (The jacket didn’t work well, something went wrong).  I took risks in creating the jacket by trying to add more or make some of it myself.  I communicated with my friends to create the jacket and we gave each other roles in the process.  We helped each other out and made creative thinking ideas together.

Ways I want to improve are:

Taking as much as I can do  Finding more gateways to make things either creative and easy and not more than I can chew.  Communicating more about ideas and what we could add on (not the jacket i.e. if we did another project that could have been more creative than the original idea and maybe better than the jacket).  Helping out more outside of school and working more together rather then at home where we don’t have each others opinions (if we each had enough time after school).

  4. What qualifications do you have for this job in the following areas.

a) Training?  Because you work with several dogs at once you need lots of experience with dogs, with like training and how to deal with them.  Watched and went to some seminars but its mostly experience that you need.

  1. (5) Some things you like about this job?  You get to spend a lot of time outside, which Carolina loves taking the dogs out for a hike in the forest.  You cant be lazy so it takes up a lot of time for walking/hiking with the dogs to tire them out.

  3. (7) How do you anticipate the job changing in the next 5 years or so?  Getting some help (Like Abby(me)) to get more clients and to grow the business.

Student Reflection:

  1. 3 reasons why you would like this job
  • I love dogs, they are my passion and I absolutely love working and being around them
  • I love the outdoors and I love hiking as well and its a way to stay active
  • You get to explore on the hike and enjoy being outdoors and its also a way to talk to other dog owners/lovers
  1. (2) 3 reasons why I would not like this job
  • The cleaning part is kind of icky but I mean I wouldn’t enjoy it its just something that you have to do in order to have this amazing job
  • Sometimes on the hikes it starts to rain really hard or just when your getting started on the hike it starts to pour and that makes me uncomfortable
  • Sometimes the dogs can be really energetic and/or not that well trained so you have to be really patient
  1. (4) after high school I would love to go into zoology, dogs I don’t think have a huge part in it but I love being around animals.  I would also love to be part of PawTrakz because I’ve been volunteering there for around 3 years now and I absolutely love being around the dogs.  I feel like being with the dogs is good because I’m not loosing interest in animals and I’m around all sorts of different personality traits in the dogs.
