Core Competency: Critical Thinking Here is evidence that I can… strategize, analyze, reason, estimate, model, be creative, visualize, reflect and revise, connect, use mistakes to advance learning, use technology or other tools, extend, reason logically, adapt my ideas, etc.

I used my critical thinking skills when I wrote my reflection, by analyzing and demonstrating my knowledge of the three revolutions we were learning about.  I supported my ideas about how they related, with examples from the text, and multiple other sources/online tools. In this assignment I extended my knowledge by comparing and contrasting the English, French, and American revolutions. Something that I learned from this assignment was how to reason logically and adapt my ideas,  when it came to how I thought the revolutions were similar.

Ways I want to improve… Some things that I could have done better for this assignment, was organize/structure my work better. Next time I reflect on a subject that I learned about, I will also take more time to reflect and revise my work.

Industrial Revolution Infographic

Here is evidence that I can… generate new ideas, build upon my ideas, build upon or combine ideas of others, develop ideas through experimentation or writing, use setbacks to advance my thinking, take significant risks with my thinking.

In this assignment I used my creative thinking skills, by demonstrating my knowledge of the Industrial revolution in a new/creative way with pictures. I generated new ideas by finding different ways to represent my points without using many words. During this assignment I had a few setbacks, that later advanced my thinking to form my final product. One of my setbacks was that I was unsure of how I was going to show/create my project. At first I was going to use a poster, but I realized that I could not get everything to fit how I wanted, nor was it an ideal strategy to finish the project efficiently. In the end I decided the infographic would work better digitally.

Ways I want to improve are… choosing an efficient way of showing my work, and sticking to a plan to get it done.
