For my last post is my FINAL SELF ASSESSMENT! I've worked hard over the time period that I have been here, I've also been away for sometimes, however the times that I've been here, I've worked my butt off to think more in depth about that days blog post. Also with the commenting on other peoples blogs, I've haven't been good at that, but towards the end I found myself commenting more and more.
For my assignment that I have worked on, I have done them to the best that I can think of. I have done all the blog posts that is on the assignment page on the wiki page, I looked though them and I matched them to the ones that I have on my blog page. From what I can see, I have done them to the best that I can do. In some of them I related to the post and I put some one my personal things. For example in my song blog post that I did, I used the song, One Life from Hedley and I said there that " I hear this song and it reminds me that life is short, and we only have one life, and we should just live it, and have fun" so this for me shows a bit on how I think of the song. The next post that I posted and which I also believe that I did to my best and that I thought about it in depth is the post about Hamlet, in this post I did connect to the character in which I said "I know the feeling of disappointment, and thinking that its not fair and just wanting to die." The whole post that I did for that day was something that I thought in depths and I said that I knew what he meant. From there the one that I like was the tattoo post. For all the assignments that I did, I put in a lot of effort to the post. I think that I did work hard over the semester, the ones that I did struggle with was the post about Hotel Rwanda. I feel that my writing is good, however I do believe that it can improve, and be even better. The quotes that I listed was the posts that I believe was awesome, however there was more. Again the posts that I believe that could of been better was the Hotel Rwanda. For my future goals, I will do even more of my best, I'll keep trying and putting in more effort.
For my comments sections I think that I have done 30-40 comments I know for fact that I haven't commented on everyone in class and that I could work more on. So I didn't comment on everyones blogs but I did comment for best in what I think is good. From the start I didn't do much commenting however I started to comment more in depth of that posts that others have done, I would read their posts and from there I would think about it and ask questions, I starting doing more to the end. I think that I haven't really answered back, I think only once or twice. I have learned that if we all share in what we know about a topic, we get more information rather then one person just says thing they know. My goals for next year is to get more involved, and share what I know about a topic. So again what I can change is for me to get more involved in the school and also the class.
For Self Regulation, for this class I know that I have missed a lot I have been away 31 time and for June it was 4. I have been away and the school know the reasons why I have been away, and all my teachers also know why, its been a hard year to start with. When I am away I would look at the wiki page and see if Neuf had updated the site and I would also work on the class from home. Also when I was here I would help out some of my friends to understand the post or the work for that way. I have learned that if I push myself to the best that I can, then I can get this done and to the best that I can.
For my Genius Hour project even though it wasn't for marks I think it was good, since I was able to show everyone what I did for it. Some people did comment on it and they seem to like what I did, just for to explaining it was to work on. From the comments I learned that I have to learn to teach something better, and explain it better. I came to school to learn, because its important for me to learn and for my future.
Overall I think that I deserve 65% to 75% between there. I really think I deserve 75% overall, and those are the reasons why I think that, my reasons are listed there.
Thanks for a awesome and fun second semester.
Fernando you are a great example of WHY I choose to do many of the online and social learning pieces. You have had a lot going lately, and you have missed a tonne of time. Is that a perfect learning scenario? No. But you used the wiki and blogs to try to stay in touch and keep completing assignments. Even better, you used the commenting format to bring our thoughts and opinions to others (even though you were away or too quiet to share them in class). Thank you for working hard on your own time, for using the tools at your disposal, and for finding things you wanted to learn about. You need to keep reading and writing to improve the technical aspects of your work, and you will do well to attend more... but I am proud of what you demonstrated for someone who missed so much. I am going to split the middle of your range of marks and say 70%. I hope you are happy with that. I hope you find peace and strength with your family this summer as you work through the difficult task of losing your grandma. Take care.
