Name of Assignment: Teach and learn project
Subject: Field Ecology Facilitator/Teacher: Ms.Cassie Description of Work/Assignment: For this assignment I was given a topic or powerpoint slides to teach the class or dementration . We got to choose from making your own food webs or animal adaptations to their habitat and I chose to do Polar bear adaptations. On the project I had to answer these questions , "what is it", "how does it relate to what we have learned", and "why is it significant". Once I answered those questions on a google slide I demonstrated my project through a clay model . I used clay, popsicle, sticks, paint ,and a lot of hot glue . Also I used fake snow to show the real effect since we don't have real snow on hawaii. Once I completed my project I presented to the whole class and taught them how polar bears adapt to different places, while humans affect them. Which 21st Century Skill do you feel this assignment addresses, and why? I feel Communication skills addresses this assignment because I communicate towards a variety of audience . Using my voice to communicate while presenting to my class , they got to ask me different questions and I answered. Also Communicating through my google slides I have made , my classmates could read off and ask me anything. What are you most proud of from this assignment, and why? I am most proud of my model I have made because I wanted to challenge myself if I could create a similar model of a picture I used for reference . Also making 2 different models was really fun to do and learning how to keep the polar bears standing up without falling down because it was made out of clay. How did you develop and/or improve upon your 21st Century Skill with this assignment? How I developed Communication skills is usually I get nervous and it shows in my body language but practicing over and over in front my friends helped develop my confidence. Also when it comes to talking to others I've learned to think before I speak , so I have a more knowledge of what i'm saying. What was most difficult about completing this task? The most difficult was creating the one model because having to cut each popsicle with scissors . Also having the right length was really hard because if it wasn't the right length everything will fall down. How could you improve this work? If you could start over, what would you do different? I wouldn't do anything different I am very proud of my outcome and the way I presented to my classmates. How does this relate to what you have learned in the past? This relates to when I have learn architecture my freshmen year with Mr.Hazlet . He taught me different measurements in building and using different websites on building . How can you apply this to future learning? I can apply this to future learning using my research skills towards other presentations . |
