Critical Thinking Reflection:

The average amount of people in a group was around 4-5. However, our group had 6 people. This was a problem, as we had to make sure everyone had an important role in the making of our project. We couldn’t allow someone to do too little, or too much. This was when our critical thinking came into play. We looked through the poem book to find a poem that had a lot of characters. As a result, we found the poem, “Aunt Sarah Died One Summer Night”. There were enough characters and enough opportunities for each member to contribute. Some people did not want to play acting roles, so we decided to incorporate other supporting roles such as video editor, director, and a manager of the miscellaneous things required for the project. Overall, our group ran into several problems, but we overcame them through logical and straightforward thinking.

Core Competency: Critical Thinking

Anchor was a new app/tool to me. Beforehand, I mostly used my phone’s camera to record my audio, and never a podcast tool such as Anchor. As a result, figuring out how to operate around was tricky at first. However, because I was able to use my critical thinking, I solved many problems. An example of a problem I had was I didn’t know how to record segments as well as undo or keep recording after pausing. But because I’ve had past experience with recording audio (through my camera), I knew there was a button to delete a segment, re-record, etc. An another example of critical thinking was when I didn’t know how to add music to the recording. Instead of painstakingly searching online or through the app, I just put on some background music while I was recording, which probably works just as well.
