Portfolio Assessment; Part 1



 In the beginning of this class I had one major goal which was to try and figure out what I wanted to do with life and where I wanted to be after high school. I also had little goals such as, doing my best, learning, and working hard on projects so that it could help me in the future. As a student, I just wanted to do well. As of now, not all my goals have been accomplished. I think it will though since we have not done a lot so far. In the near future though, I hope to do really well on our YPI project.

 I feel as if I deserve a G in this class because I get things done on time and when I'm supposed to. I feel like in this component I deserve an 86-88%.  I also work hard on any assignments given instead of just slacking off and not giving it my best ability. I also deserve a G because I'm always ready for class, and have not yet missed a day where I needed to catch up. For example, in my University Dean project located on my blog, I think I had a good amount of information and actually learned and taught myself a lot of things I did not know about the University of British Columbia. For example, I learned how much it would cost and what the benefits were of living on campus rather than at home. I also learned how it's so diverse and even though you could be at UBC for one thing, you can also have many different opportunities.

 Aside from projects, I feel like I also deserve a 86-88% in this component. I also learned a lot about myself and what I like to do through the many quizzes and tests we had done. This proves how much knowledge I'm getting about what I really want to do which ties in with me achieving my goal. I also think I'm great with helping my peers around me although I do think I lack helping other people that don't happen to be near me. I know I should put more effort into commenting and helping my peers out but never seem to do so, which I do want to change. I feel like because of this, I deserve a 76-80%.  I also feel like I should take into consideration about what people comment on my blogs but I feel like when people comment, it's mostly just stars and no wishes which does not help me improve in this class, although I'm hoping to work well on my YPI project and get a lot of feedback.

  Overall, I think this class is great and really does help me understand more things about jobs, schools and life in general. All in all, I feel like I deserve an 86-88% (A) in all the components.

  1. Kiran, are you planning on living on campus when you're at University? I agree with your point about commenting on more classmates blogs. What other ways could you enhance the learning of others? Continue to complete your assignments in detail adding more than what the criteria asks.
