Self Reflection

1. How can my learning serve my community?

The goal for me- essentially- is to go to college. In order to do that, I will have to stay in school and study hard. And another person from the RGV to have gone to college will help better my community because it will diminish statistics and barriers that many have yet to overcome.

2. How can your future projects become better?

 Now I know that I am not limited to these tools, and next time I know that I have more options to chose from which will be beneficial because it will help me to expand and I will have more options of how to present.

3. What have you learned about yourself and what you will continue to do or not do and why?

In doing this project I have learned that I like working and presenting through my blog to my teacher. I think it ensures accuracy and it makes it easier to interact with the different tools and programs that my teacher has provided. Working with a blog not only allows us to be creative, but it helps to make sure that there is no miscommunication between teacher and student. And I thimk that even after this project I will continue to post to my blog because it really helps when you are trying to use the design cycle  when doing a project, and it makes it easier for the teacher to track my progress.

4. How do you feel about your final product? What would you rate yourself on the Rubric scale of 1-6 for each part of the Assessment Criterion?

I feel really good about my final product because I worked really hard on it and I feel that others will be able to benefit greatly from it. For the rating, I know that I would rate myself a 5 in the investigate step because I really did do the research and everything, but I was unaware of all of my options, and for that reason I would rate myself a 5. In the plan step I would rate myself a 6 because I think I did good considering the due date and how I was able to divide and plan out my time according to the due date of my project. In the create step in the design cycle I would rate myself a 6 because I was able to use my resources effectively in order to create a product that will be effective. In the evaluate step, even though I haven't  entirely finished it, I would rate myself a 5 so far because I am doing a good job reflecting so far.

5. What would you do differently in regards to your planning and execution of your plan?

I think next time I would try to be more time efficient and work outside of class in order to use my time more effectively and be able to accomplish more.
