In Math 9, I was the group leader for helping others to understand their mistakes on a test. This is a great example of communication because I helped others understand what they did not. We had people with weak bases from our group write solutions to hard questions to prove they understood. I demonstrated alternative ways that people can solve problems, which proves that I can communicate my ideas with others, even if we have different perspectives on problems. In Info Tech 9, I did a PowerPoint presentation, which was an excellent example of creative thinking because the objective wasn’t to make just an ordinary presentation, it was one that you needed to engage people. You needed to find ways to make your PowerPoint look interesting while using different functions. During my presentation, I demonstrated that I could turn my imagination and ideas into reality since I had transitions that were very smooth and realistic. In Info Tech 9, I did a Scratch coding project demonstrating critical thinking. During the coding process, I needed to think logically about why errors were occurring. There were many different types of errors, which needed me to question, analyze, and apply basic knowledge on large chunks of code at a time. In Social Responsibility, I did research on an inquiry question about sports that demonstrated social responsibility. I wrote and researched about the benefits of playing a sport, which caught the attention of my peers. In Applications of Digital Learning, I did an “About Me” assignment, which demonstrated personal identity. I could proudly tell people what I liked and disliked, and what my personality is. In Science 9, I did a Bunsen burner project where it was in partners, which was an excellent example of personal responsibility because it was a bit dangerous, handling fire and different raw materials. I was a reliable partner as I grabbed the right materials, ensured the fire was not causing danger, and the testing process was correct.
