"Reflection"May.13.2011

1. 1. Considering the development opportunities available to you this year, how have you applied that you learned?

I've used Power Point and Microsoft a lot so I think that’s something that I have applied to all the classes and that I will use throughout high school and it think if I get a job as a lawyer I think that I might use that a lot mainly Microsoft Word because it’s something that everyone uses no matter what job they have unless their people that don’t need

2. What strengths do you possess that you can use at a higher level next year?

I think that I'm going to use Microsoft and Power Point a lot and what I learned in this class is going to help me a lot so I know I'm going to use it next year. Not also next year but also through the whole 3 years that I’m going to be here. Another strength that this class gave me is presenting because when we had to do some power points we had to present and that wasn’t easy for me but I’m not as shy as I use to be.

3. What obstacles must you work through so you can meet all your goals for this year?

I think turning in your work in time because I know that once you turned it in you like ok I turned it in but you don't really know that you’re going to lose points and that’s something that I had problems this year and it's hard to bring up your grades because that one late assignment can mess you up.

4. Discuss what you have learned during the class and how it will assist you in achieving further academic and work related goals.

I learned so many things in this class like how to use Power Point better, and Excel was the hardest because it took me a while to get the hang of it, I'm pretty sure that I'm going to use Power Point, Microsoft word and all the others so I'm really going to take advantage of what I learned in this class.

5. If you could do any assignment over this year, which one would it be and why? Any regrets?

One assignment that I would do over would probably be the all about me presentation because I wanted to put more Justin Bieber pictures<3.But I would've changed the animations because they were going too fast and made the presentation feel like it was rushing.

6. What are 3 words you would use to describe this class?

FUN, INTERESTING, and lots of MEMORIES

7. How did your computer skills grow or improve over the course of the year?

They grew a lot because there were something’s that I didn't know like Excel and now I have the idea of how it works. I know how to do things that some people don’t know and I like that because I feel like I’m a bit more aware what to do when it comes to power point or Excel and I know that I can help people out and it won’t be wrong.

8. What were your greatest challenges or lessons learned?

Excel was the most challenging because I was new to it but I was able to get the hang of it and it’s not as hard as I thought. I still kind of have some trouble with it but I can always look back at the work that we did with it and try it out step by step. The hardest part for me had to be when we had to add or subtract the numbers and you had to click a bunch of things and I really didn’t know what to do, but no I can either check back or ask people for help.
