Core Competencies Reflection 

Core Competency: _______Critical Thinking_____________ 

 

I think I did well on the Biography of James Cook, I was focused on finding details about who he is, what he is doing, and why he is exploring to begin with. I put his early life in England and his passion about navigating. Then I added of few of his early voyages during the seven years’ war. He got a few assignments by some rulers to do some astronomy. He did a few voyages around the pacific which changed the world as we know it. When he was doing the third voyage, he was murdered by natives. It effected a lot of people because we would not be here in Vancouver if it wasn’t for them. I think a few people were interested about James Cook in this class, I was. But I added a lot of answers on what James Cook is about. I tried my hardest to research him and put lots of facts about him.
 

Ways I want to improve are… 

For making the poster because I did not have the time to make a poster, but it does not really matter, it matters if you put a lot of information about the explorer and his life.

Reflection:

  • Social responsibility

As a Kodiak in high school, I learned how to work well with others. Helping out my partners is a big improvement after finishing middle school. I was glad I was sharing my ideas to the others, and I think I work well with everyone on audios, script, and planning. I probably should improve on editing the videos with my partners, but I understand my partner Kyle Vestal got it under control. I should respect other people on who they are and there personalities because sometimes, I always doubt other partners on how they treat assignments when I was in the first and second semester. When I was working with them, I was more confident we will work well together. I tried to sound like I was an anchorman and an enthusiastic voice actor. We all tried to get an A on this an assignment, but I am ready for a B or a C. I know My improvement should be trustworthy to my partners and classmates.

Student Reflections:

1. Give three reasons why you would like this job (be specific):

a) I like it because there are no bosses.
b) No one has to work all the time doing this job, and there is no paperwork.
c) People look out for things when needed.

b) I would have to clean parts of my house that I would never like to do.
c) That job is harder than I thought it would be.

3. Is this job for you? Why or why not?

No, I would like a different job so that I can earn a lot of money. I don’t know what job I want, but I want it to be a good job.

4. Explain the value of the TYKTW experience in relation to your ideas about your post-secondary (after high school) plans (education? training? travel? work?).

The experience of TYKTW shows that whoever works at home could sometimes think it can be really hard. I don’t think this job will help me in anyway for my future career, I never thought what my mom does is a real job, but I appreciate the fact that she does many things and sometimes there is a lot of pressure. I would not want to be a home maker but I it sounds interesting that you do something like that.
