Reading

For this weeks reading blog we had to create a dlo on our learning and here is what I made and what questions i thought of.

Notes on what words mean.  

1. Challenge 

Challenge means that you find something difficult, and you're challenged.

2. Establish

I think that Establish means that you are learning something new.

Creativity

Hi welcome back to my blog today I will be sharing with you my learning on creativity.

Self:
What kind of thinker am I? I think that I am a thinker that comes up with good ideas but is scared to share than because most of the time people dont think they are good ones. Which creative thinking skills could I work on and which ones do I have and why. I could work on sharing my ideas out loud and I have some good ideas but again I need to share them. What assets of creative thinking to I find the hardest? I find thinking for ideas hard when im under pressure or I can hear a lot of people talking because it puts me of my work.

Team:
What kind of thinker did I bring to my pbl group this year? I think that I thought very long and hard for this project to stand out at the fair and I was proud of myself for doing that.
What are my creative strengths when I work in a team? Agreeing with my group and thinking of what we can do to make the project better.

Communcation

Communication.

Over this past week we have been learning about collaboration, creativity and communication.
We have been learning about communication today and for this task we to copy and object without looking at it, the other teammates had communicate to us what the object looked like. I think that when your working with a group communication is key because without it the outcome of the project will not be what was you are hoping for.

Do you think that communication is key?

Pbl

This term for pbl We have been given a group of four people, 2 boys and 2 girls. Our group has been working pretty well together there has been a few ups and downs but overall were getting it done. In this reflection I will be talking about What I think I have collaborated well in.
work highly effectively and interdependently, identifying and using each other's strengths and skills. I think this is a goal that we have definitely been using throughout building, carrying and painting. Like for lifting the object that we have made they always tell Mostyn and I or Steve and I To lift it. With the painting thats definitely something that we can all do which is great. In our group we really need to focus on communication because most of the time we don't even know what one of our group members have done and what to do next.

Thank you for reading this blog

Have you ever done a collaborative task with anyone?
