1. What piece of work and learning are you most proud? Explain.
I'm proud of my great nation, as Canada is quite obviously the best country in the world, I think that the piece i'm most fond of is the city presentation, in which I explain what lead to the prominence of Nanaimo (My actual hometown is Qualicum Beach, but the limited information led to a change). I'm proud of it because I love my second home, and it was relatively challenging to find such copious amounts of info about Nanaimo.
2. What were your greatest challenges? Explain.
I've always had a problem when despite loitering on a point of an hour, somebody still doesn't get it, this has been a frequent occurence for me, as perhaps my explanations are a little too high minded for some people to comprehend, not helped by the fact that I can speak at a million miles a minute.
3. Reflecting on your growth this year, what did you learn about yourself as a learner?
I might be patronizing at times, and that could hinder my collaborative results, but I thought that I've improved upon that and my collaborative skills, though there is still work to be done.
