Self reflection
Global history 1 and 2 have both been classes which contained a lot of group work and group projects. With all the group work I have been able to receive many reflections on my work and ability to work as a productive group member. Based upon the peer feedback we received I have definitely grown as a more responsible group member and more helpful to others. Throughout the many class projects I feel as though my communication to the group as a whole has improved. This helped my collaboration with others due to the fact that my communication was very clear with my work. Although group work in not my favorite way to receive a grade, I definitely learned the importance of responsibility. Understanding this skill will not only help me with the rest of high school, but will translate to my jobs in the future. This directly correlates with work ethic in that it will be extremely important to also learn that skill now, before entering the real world. As for my writing skills, the last writing assignment, the research paper, was probably my best work of the year because it covered so many topics within one paper. It showed my ability to share a very confusing topic by making it easier to understand and relate to. Also, with the peer evaluations of the paper, allowed for me to once again take peer advice into consideration in order to make the paper the best it could be.
