This project addresses communication. I feel that this project demonstrates interpersonal skills because my partner and I needed to work together and cooperate in order too get work for this project done.
What are you most proud of from this assignment?
I am most proud that we got this project done in a short amount of time. We had a lot of work to do but
we were proactive and got it done before it was even due.
How did you develop and/or improve your 21st century skill with this project?
This project sort of showed me that I can do work before the last minute and that it's less stressful to get it done. My partner and I did this project way before it was due and we were able to give it more quality and detail.
What was the most difficult part about completing this project?
The most difficult part about finishing this project was communicating who's doing what, but once we started to talk about it more we were easily able to figure out who was doing what.
How could you improve this work? If you had the chance to redo it what what changes would you make?
If I had the chance to redo this project, I would do it digitally because the sharpie sort of bled through the paper, I would also do a rough draft before hand to ensure that it is ready for the final draft.
How does this relate to what you have learned in the past?
We've done various book projects in the past and for this one I got the chance to work with a partner and we made 7 math problems that were all about our siblings. We have also learned about solving for x in the past but this is a bit more complicated then it was before.
