How have you used one of the above ATLs while working on your project?
Give examples.
Self-management within my project works as an interaction of prioritizing the goals and decisions that we will carry out, where the necessary actions that we must take have to be carried out and also have to work hard in what way, mainly by carrying out the raising money, services outside of class and mainly how we can manage our time to see if we can solve all the needs we have.
We will carry out:
-Talking with teachers from boston
-Talking with the kids' parents that will be attending our project.
-Fundraising money
-Visa Acceptance
-Babysitting after school
-Looking forward towards the activities that we want to do in the US.
Social
The collaboration within our project is based mostly on the communication we can have with Diego who is in Thailand, with Steph helping me here to get money and brainstorm really good ideas to raise money, and mainly that our collaboration is based to have everyone in our class together and have them give us good advice so that we can find ways to get money
In addition to that, the collaboration also requires a lot of time within our project since we make sure that many people from outside the school find out what we want to do and mainly using their resources to make innovative ideas.
How has your experience in this area enhanced your ability to learn in other classes or prepared you for life in general? Explain.
I think that my experience within these areas to learn in each class have better-said the actions necessary for me to really get involved physically, mentally, socially, and spiritually to understand everything that clings to these areas, since I mainly want to prioritize what I want to get into within this year. Besides that, the collaboration and social activities are mainly based on how many classmates have been in projects with me, we get along and we finish everything and they have helped us to cope with things and also the teachers. So I really think that every step I take is mainly in all classes since not only one of these areas is required, but all are required to
