Reflection:

This lab wasn’t to hard to do but I had fun doing it with my teammates. It was an easy way to show our knowledge on the laws and ways of physics while collaborating together. Our hypothesis of when weight was added to our rotocopter, the time at which it took for the copter to fall decreased (fell faster) was correct. If I were to do this lab again I would be more exact with the placing of the weight (paper clips),more exact with the height at which the copter was dropped as well better time management. Over all I think this was a good lab to do.

Career Life Education projects

 

Reflection:

For one of the early assignments or projects in this class we were instructed through practice and preparation for a mock job interview. We had to dress the part, look professional and prepare possible questions the interviewers could ask. I have to admit I was quite nervous that I would mess the whole thing up, and finally when I did take my place with the interviewer I felt pretty good. I was asked about my passions and with that my mouth just started to run. I rambled on about horses and I guess what I said created a good impression because in every criteria box all that was written there was the word wow.

for an assignment later on in the semester, we did Youth Philanthropy Initiative (YPI). This was a pretty huge assignment marks wise, but I had such an awesome diverse team and I am so proud of how we did. We chose the charity Pacific Riding for Developing Abilities which is a therapeutic horse riding facility for those who have disabilities. Going to visit the charity was so amazing to see how they personalize to each client and being a horse person myself it was so amazing to see the beautiful nature of horses helping those who need it.

Habitable extrasolar planet video

 

response:

The questions of weather there are other planets, other habitable planets, and a second big bang occurring in the universe has fascinated me throughout my hole life. I love the sci-fi genera of futuristic societies, exploring space and other worlds, as well as the possibility of finding life outside of our planet. This was probably one of my favourite assignments to do as I got to do something that fascinates me and I am interested in learning about. I loved that we had free rein on this project as it gave us a lot of flexibility on our topic as well as our content. Something that I feel went well on this project was the equal amount of work my partner and I did on the project as well as our execution in conveying our topics, information, and theories. Something that could have gone better would have been how we dealt with our technological difficulties to avoid doing double the work. But in the end, I am quite proud of this project and I really enjoyed my time making it.

Novel Study: The Curious Incident of The Dog in The Nighttime.

 

Response

In this project, I wrote an extra chapter to the book, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime, as well as a letter in the perspective of the father to the main character. Some things I think I did well would be how I stepped into the shoes of Cristopher – the main character – and really got inside his mind to wright a chapter through his eyes. For the letter I wrote in the perspective of Christopher’s father, I really tried to get a grip on his side of the story and get a sense of why he did what he did. I also tried to think about all the difficulties Christopher’s father had to endure with his son having a disability, Christopher’s mother leaving the two of them, hold down a job, making sure Christopher is supported in school, paying the bills, putting food on the table, and so on. Although what Christopher’s father did was wrong, I do think that there was more to the story and that he didn’t just kill the neighbors dog because he felt like it. Something I think I could have done better on this assignment was to make sure that every aspect of the criteria was fulfilled so that I could receive top marks and to make sure to title and name my documents on the computer so that it looks more professional.
