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 really well, because I managed to get my highest mark ever and really enjoyed looking into something I might want to do one day
The Career Inquiry was really useful as it made me aware of the steps I needed to take to get me to becoming a football analyst
How do I feel about my second year of Inquiry now that I’ve spent 4 weeks in it? Well, I have to say it's going extremely well, the only thing is I am unsure how I will transfer back over to mainstream next year
It was a different start for me this year because...
One of my goals was to get top 5 at futsal nationals by working on this goal, it helped me to improve my learning because it taught me that what you put in is what you get out ( the more you put in, the more you'll get out of it)
The goal I did the best with was I can plan and managing my time effectively, independently, despite missing a week due to futsal nationals
The reason it went so well was that I was able to manage my time enough that I didn't ask for an extension
I was a bit frustrated with how one goal went because we got 7th
Next time, I will try and get better; this will help me because the better I am, the more I can contribute to my team.

6M. A very comprehensive and detailed inquiry and report here George. Your timesheet was a 6 because you personalised more into a daily dairy than just a “I did this and I did that” basic response. Great use of your expert and a strong level of research meant that your conclusions were well supported. Your did go into the workplace by playing some Futsal and by working with the statistics and interpreting them in your report and presentation just like an analyst would. The only part you could have improved in the report was explaining your school timeline more within the body of your report but your conclusion addressed most of this anyway. The presentation was interesting and may have gone over the heads of some of the boys, but you did well to try and explain a complicated job. For a 6E down the track, work on using footnotes in your report that link to your bibliography (inquiry website has a section on this) and work to include some reflection on how feedback has been used from previous inquiries to improve the next one.
