Reflection:
In this science project, I not only learned how to measure ones heart rate, properly draw a graph and learn many new facts about the heart, but got to meet new people in my group and collaborate with others. I was most definetley able to use the competencies of taking on roles and responsibility’s in a group, being able to produce ideas, and being a respectful and open minded member of my group. For roles and responsibilities, I took these in by tracking our data while doing the experiment, putting this data into a graph form, and finding many facts about the heart. Nextly I produced quite a few ideas for my group such as how we will track the heart rate, the excercises etc. That being said though, I was an open minded member of my group accepting all ideas and trying to make sure that everyone got what they wanted. I was respectful to my group members and was co-operative and easy to be around. Overall, I am very pleased with this project and the end result. I learned many new things about the heart as well as believe that I showcased the core competencies. My group and I worked very hard on doing this project to the best of our abilities and I think that this project was a great way to start out the semester in science!
