Name of Assignment: Earth’s Geological Story Subject: Field Ecology Facilitator/Teacher: Ms, Cassie
Description of Work/Assignment: This is a presentation about a part in time, my project was on the Proterozoic Eon. In the end, we presented our projects and took a test.
Which 21st Century Skill do you feel this assignment addresses, and why? The 21st Century Skill I choose for this is Information Skills, I would say this because I applied relevant computer and handheld technology understanding across the curriculum, and I had integrated new technologies as well. I also read and understood a wide range of literary and informational texts for a variety of purposes.
What are you most proud of from this assignment, and why? I think this assignment was quite easy. After looking up my Eon and writing down key points the presentation just fell together. The test was easy as well, as long as you paid attention it was an easy A.
How did you develop and/or improve upon your 21st Century Skill with this assignment? Before I started this project I was unsure of what I was going to do. The idea of looking this topic up on my own and having no fact checker (the teacher) was intimidating. After I started though I got better at looking through the information on the computer to tell what was true and not.
What was most difficult about completing this task? It was quite difficult to get this project started, however after I got the first few words on the page, it became easier to write about it. Almost like telling a story.
How could you improve this work? If you could start over, what would you do differently? If I could start over I might start earlier, I felt the end product was a bit rushed. I would also take more notes on the presentations while they were being presented.
How does this relate to what you have learned in the past? This is a bit similar to presenting any project I’ve really ever done. Taking away important information on how to work well with your own schedule and time.
How can you apply this to future learning? I can apply this by taking away important information on how to work well with your own schedule and time.
