Brainstorm the items you want on your poster

My role in a team is the implementer and complete finisher, but the implementer got a higher score than the complete finisher, so my poster would be focused on that. On my individual poster, I would firstly put the title at the top. Then I would define what an implementer is, which means an organized person. I would add pictures related to my belbin role like some cogs or a folder. I would make my poster colorful and full of imagination. I would maybe write about why I am an implementer.

Belbin roles reflection

1. When I compare my actual Belbin results to what I thought I would be, it matched up completely to what I predicted. I thought I was going to be a complete finisher and an implementer because I thought I was a very organized person and I wanted to get things done easily. My third highest score was a teamworker which I think is quite right too. Because I can work well with a group.

2. Yes I agree with my results because it was what I predicted and I can relate to it. I agree that I am a complete finisher, implementer and a team worker.

3. Our group's results was all different so it was pretty balanced out. But no one was a plant and monitor evaluator, so we checked among the three of us to see who got a higher score in these areas, but it was a tie between me and another person, so we both agreed to share both roles.

4. We can look back at the team wheel and when we plan at the beginning of a project, we can divide the tasks into parts. We each have a different strength, so we each can focus on the part of the project that we would be most helpful to.

Belbin team roles

I would sort myself into complete finisher- gets things done and also the implementer- the cogs of the team. I can relate to the complete finisher because I sometime have an anxiety to get things done. In the back of my mind, I have the tasks I need to get done and due dates. In the last sentence, it describes them as having high standards, precise, dedicated and task- focused. I always set my mind on the task and focus on what part of the team I have to get done. I kind of have high standards, but mostly I aim for a good score. I also think I am the implementer because I have common sense, self- control and discipline. I know what needs to get done and do my part and I use common sense to get the task done. It describes the implementer as people who are not afraid of hard work and prefer to tackle tasks in  a systematic way. I would say that I am quite a hard worker, because I am usually focused and is not distracted easily. I am an organized person, because I like to do things chronologically.

I think I need to work on pulling the team together. Even though I have done my part of the team's task, I should ask people how far they are on the task. I might work with people who are distracted easily, and haven't gotten that far on the assignment, therefor I should tell them to keep working encouragingly and check from time to time how our whole team is going.

LI- to plan and undertake an enquiry into the causes, impacts and management of natural hazards

To undertake an enquiry means to question and research about the restless earth. We are trying to find Causes means to find out the reason behind what starts a natural disaster. Impacts means the effect and influence it has on the earth and the people. The negative and positive. The management is the aftermath of the disaster- what our society and community is doing to solve this disaster. 

-To research and organize into the reasons, effects, influence and aftermath of natural disasters.

Humanities self reflection- Basic rights

• What was the key question of this topic?

The key question of this topic was how does your issue connect to the human rights? 

• In one paragraph write an answer to the question, thinking about what you have learned.

My issue which is basic rights, connects to human rights because it is one of articles in the UDHR. It is number 25 on the list, but in our class, we ranked this topic no 1. It relates to it because it is something that the world is still struggling with. There are still third world countries like Zimbabwe which the majority of the people have no food, healthcare, education or a roof to live under. It is a right because it shouldn't matter where you're from, you should deserve to have the basic rights because without these rights, you can't live, which makes the rest of the articles on the UDHR unimportant because you can't live. In the olden days, only the king and higher class people got access to basic rights, but they could later on see that it is unfair and very important. They could see that the world was not going peacefully, so they decided that everybody deserved to have these rights.

• Why do you think this topic is important?

I feel that this issue is important, because without these rights, you can’t live. It is vital to have these rights and to me, it is the most important. Like how we discussed in class we put the basic rights as our number one issue. The UDHR states that everybody is born free and equal, so everybody should be allowed to have food, water, healthcare and shelter. It shouldn’t matter where you come from or if you’re poor, everyone deserves it. They are not wants, they are needs. We all need a roof above our head, we all need food and water to survive and we all need healthcare to cure our sickness and to stay healthy. But if everyone has these rights, why are there still people living on the street and begging for money to support their family? Everybody should have a right to live.

• Which learning opportunities did I most enjoy doing?  Why?

 I enjoyed doing the biography because it was a topic I was most interested in which is the basic rights- food an shelter. I got to research about something I was interested in and it was quite fun. I like writing the story for my biography because writing stories is something I enjoy doing because you can use your creativity. The last part of the project was to present it in a format. I chose to present in glogster because I am familiar with using it and I like to scrapbook, so glogster is basically an online scrapbook. You can show your creativity and imagination by decorating it and making it interseting.

• Which learning opportunities did I least enjoy doing?  Why? 

I didn't quite enjoy doing the researching for my biography because it took quite a long time to find a story that was related to my issue. Even though food and shelter is still a major problem in the world, little of them get interviewed and share their story. I found a lot of stories about countries who were struggling, but not about an individual. Some of them had little information about the person who was being interviewed. 

• What skills have I used? Include 3 examples of work that show these skills.

-I applied creativity, by using my glogster not only as a place to show my biography, but I can also decorate it, and add tags to make it more interesting- http://www.glogster.com/faqeera/basic-rights/g-6lunn90sljdake6t9e9q0a0 
-I also used precise language, as you can also see in the link above in my glog. I took the information of my person in my mindnode, and shorten the story down so it can fit onto a page, while still explaining properly. 
-Another skill I use was plan and research. Before I started researching, I discussed with my partner what countries we should focus on and which sub topic of the human rights issue we should be independently researching about.

• How can the learning in this topic help me in the ‘real world’?

It can help me because now I know what countries are still living in poverty and need help. I can help by donating to the charities to supply food for the poor or make fundraising events to charities that need a house or shelter to live in. I could join an after school club like habitat for humanity. 

• What key idea do you think people should be aware of about this topic?

I think people should get an idea that even thought it is declared that everyone is entitled to getting these rights, there are still people who struggle with it everyday and don't get easy access. But we can help the others who are in need by participating in fundraising events or donate to those who need help. People should also know that without human rights, the world won't function properly. There were wars and riots going back then, and we should be grateful that we have these rights.

Knowledge- :)
Progress- :)
Enjoyment- :) 

What targets could I set to help make progress in my learning?
Try to link them to your humanities learning and the key skills you want to develop.  E.g. Try to use key terms in my answers, try to ask my own questions.
1.Improve my research skills
2.Pose and define problems
3.Apply imagination

Reflect upon your group's individual SC

For the first success criteria which was to have 5 slides on our topic, we changed the format we were going to use. We wanted to use power point but then we changed it to glogster, because we figured it would be more easier to view in a large audience and because it is easier to combine both of our biography into one format that can showcase our full stories. I have also decorated the glogster like a scrapbook to liven our stories up. Our other success criteria was to proofread our work, which we already did, and we peered review each other and got other people to check it too. Our final success criteria was to plan before we did our presentation, which we already did. We have planned everything on a mind map, and researched on our issue and collected it in a document. We have already met all of our success criteria for our group's individual biography.

Reflecting on my learning

ELP- b. how can i relate to this clothing?

 This hat makes a good statement because it says "I love human rights" which shows that you are supporting and caring for the human rights. It is a good example to use because it is nice and basic and is related to human rights.









I think this bag makes a good statement because it encourages people to support human rights and also the bag has blue people without faces to show that it doesn't matter where you are from and who you are, everyone deserves human rights and supports it.









I think this bag makes a good statement because it shows "I love human rights" which also shows that you support human rights. Another thing is that the bag is made out of canvas, which is a type of material that is environment-friendly, so when you go grocery shopping you don't have to use plastic bags which takes a long time to degrade and is making a bad impact on our earth.






This bag makes a good statement because the coloring of the word "human rights" goes from dark brown, light brown then to white. This represents the different skin color tone of everyone, it shows that no matter where you are from or what skin color you are, you deserve human rights and should not be discriminated.

This shirt makes a good statement because it says "I love human rights" which shows that you support it and is dedicated to it. It is a good example to use because it is a simple tee with basic writing which makes it convenient for both females and males to wear.
