                   Core Competencies  

Strengths: Personal Awareness and Responsibility 

This year I have demonstrated personal awareness and responsibility. One of the examples of this is staying on top of my schoolwork (for example getting ahead and doing extra work). Another example of this is I also always try my best and put my best ability into my work.  

Growth: Personal Awareness and Responsibility 

This year I have improved on my organization, with this I’m able to stay on top of my homework. Being more organized has helped me get my work done and know what needs to be done. I can also organize my work better, for example, when writing an essay, making sure it’s organized and easy to follow.  

Goal: Communication 

One of my goals is communication to achieve my goal; I want to be more involved in clubs, school activities and speaking up.  I find I can be very quiet when I don’t know anyone. I want to be able to speak up more to my classmates and share my ideas. I also want to join some school clubs so I can be more involved in my school community. Lastly, I want to be more involved in school activities, for example being part of leadership. This will allow me to help my school community and being involved as well.

My Paragraph:

Green house gasses play a huge role in our earth’s atmosphere, which can lead to a lasting impact on our planet, as well as negative affects to our health. Green house gasses are gases that increase temperature in our earth atmosphere in order to regulate it. With more human activity like fossil fuels, and industrialization it has increased the levels of carbon dioxide in our earths atmosphere. This causes an energy imbalance which leads to extra heat near the surface causing the atmosphere to heat up. These levels has been increasing through the past decades and is only getting worse. This affects our planet and there have been increasing amounts of heatwaves, weather events, diseases spread and more. Greenhouse gas not only have an affect on our planet but our health, we need to take action before it becomes a crisis.

ChatGPT:

Greenhouse gases (GHGs) are atmospheric gases that trap heat, contributing to the greenhouse effect and warming the Earth’s surface. Carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and fluorinated gases are primary greenhouse gases emitted from human activities such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes. These gases have intensified due to anthropogenic activities, leading to global warming and climate change. The consequences of increased GHG emissions include rising sea levels, altered weather patterns, and impacts on ecosystems and biodiversity. Mitigating GHG emissions through renewable energy adoption, energy efficiency measures, and sustainable practices is crucial for addressing climate change and preserving the planet’s health.

Questions:
1)  What was your experience in using AI?
My experience was very straightforward and was easy to use.
2)  Was the paragraph the AI generated accurate? Fact-check any new information and see if it’s true.
I fact check the information from the AI generated paragraph and it was true. I found the AI generated paragraph was more complicated and could use a bit more explaining.
3)  Was the exercise useful? How can this help you with your learning going forward? Were your results expected? Yes or No? Explain.
I think this was very useful, because I never knew to use AI before. I think this could be useful if you are trying to learn something and need a quick summery of the topic. It would also, save you time because you don’t have to look through the internet. The downside is your don’t know if the information is correct. Overall I think AI could be used in a helpful way by explain or collecting information, but not being used to do the work for you.

For take your Kid To Work Day, I went to my Dad’s work. He is works for the VDP, so they had organized a day for kids to do activities. This was a very unique  experience and I will also remember it.

 

  1. What did you hear, see, smell, and feel in the work environment on Nov. 1st? 

We got the opportunity to shoot guns, do I heard the banging of the guns.  At lunch we were able to eat pizza and I could smell the scent of it. I saw police officers, animals, and various gear. I could also feel the police gear, and how the material felt.  

 

 

 

  1. What about the environment would motivate you to wake up every day to attend work? 

How friendly the people were and how polite they were. I would also look forward to helping my community. I would also be motivated to see some of my co-workers, and that I would work with. 

 

  1. What about the work environment would discourage you from waking up every day to attend work? 

That fact that you would have to deal with crazy people, that would attack you. And I would not like to respond to violence. And how you may have to work nightshifts and wake up early. 

  1. What is ONE thing you found interesting about your workplace visit?

I found it interesting how the police train the dogs, and how they are used to detect bombs, detect people’s scent, and save people’s lives.
