Indicators:
A. Observe and evaluate situations in order to define problems.
B. Frame questions, make predictions, and design data collection and analysis strategies.
C. Identify patterns, trends, and relationships that apply to solutions.
D. Analyze, evaluate, and synthesize evidence, arguments, claims, and beliefs.
E. Generate a variety of solutions, use evidence to build a case for best responses, critically evaluate the effectiveness of responses, and repeat the process to generate alternate solutions.
F. Identify opportunities for innovation and collaborations.
G. Use a range of tools, including technology, to solve problems.
H. Persist in solving challenging problems and learn from failure.
Start with the enduring understanding, and describe what it means to be a responsible and involved citizen.
Where have you used these skills?
Reflect on your completion of the power assessment (Service Thesis Project).
What have you learned are your strengths and weaknesses in this domain?
These things remind me about what happens in science. Needing to analyze a problem, think about how to solve the problem, using different technologies to solve the problem. Creative and practical problem solving is a way to think creatively to solve a problem.
I did not do the science fair, because I didn't do the science fair I decided to just take a science class. I have take through the years: Chemistry, Earth Space Systems, Bio for the Med, and Living systems. Having to do multiple labs in each, dissections'. The document on the left is a lab about Newtons second law. The one on the right is a lab about Spectral lines on Hydrogen & Helium.
The evidence that I have here is from group project. This was our baking project of 2021. The baking project consisted with a lot of problem solving. When not all of us were there we needed to figure out how to get all the orders done. Marketing, baking, budgeting to see if we made a profit.
I made custom Heelys. Making custom Heelys came with it's fair share of challenges. I needed to figure out how to use a oscillating saw, as well as when using the new tool there was a problem with it not cutting all the way through. When cutting the hole in the sole, I was unable to get it out so I had to figure out a way to get it out. It was a project on doing a lot of new things. I had a lot of ideas on how the final product was going to be.
This is a mini radiation lab that was done in chemistry. We needed to investigate different heights of radiation and one piece of a radioactive sample. The way the lab was described by the teacher was a little a lacking but asking for him to clarify. was well needed We needed to do graphs, show our evidence, and write a conclusion to show that we did the experiment and understood.
My strong suit has never really been in science and a lot of the proficiencies look like things related to science. There are a lot of times when there is a problem and I need to redirect myself. Someone can't do an interview with me, than I try to find someone else. I'm not able to cut through a shoe, I try to figure out ways that I can. I use technology to help me solve certain things that I am not always certain about, it's a way to use your resources to your advantage. My weakness has always been planning, I sometimes try to wink it and see how it goes. That or I don't really worry about the right things when it's needed, I think about the outcome but I don't think about it too much.
