Reflection # 6
Career Inquiry
Reflect on how you went during your inquiry. What did you learn?
How was your start to this year different to last year? (Look back to your Ancestry Inquiry reflection)
Explain how you worked toward your goals and how it helped your learning. What worked? What didn’t? What will you do differently next time?
Write your reflection here...
My first Inquiry of the year went well but I didn't get as many things as I wanted to during the first week I think this was because I was readjusting to the inquiry process.
The Career Inquiry was really useful as it made me aware of what I wanted to do in life and how to get there
How do I feel about my second year of Inquiry now that I’ve spent 1 term in it? Well I have to say I am adjusting well back into the feel of inquiry.
It was a different start for me this year because I already knew how inquiry went and I had far more student agency
One of my goals was to come into class more refreshed and ready to learn by working on this goal it helped me to improve my learning because it taught me what I should do to avoid feeling tired or burned out less often
The goal I did the best with was: "I want to stick to long-term projects and interests more easily" the reason it went so well was because I toughed it out and saw the great rewarding feeling of sticking to something for a long time.
I was a bit frustrated with how one goal went because I was adjusting back to the inquiry process and was very slow during my first week.
Next time I will try to eat and sleep more this will help me because They are the most essential variables in efficiency
Evidence of Term 1 goals being met.
Copy and paste all relevant evidence in the form of screenshots or written explanations of what was done to achieve your 4 goals for Term 1.
e.g. Test results, teacher feedback, parent feedback, peer feedback, your own explantion of things you did etc.
I have found it easier and more straightforward to stick to something and be direct with long term projects.
I have figured out strategies and formed routines to feel more refreshes and with less burnout
I did not meet my goal of being efficient in the first week of inquiry because I was adjusting to the inquiry process
I did feel myself asking more questions and making sure that I was on the right track during week 1 & 2
