Question 1: What did you know about the Core Competencies before this activity? What did you learn?

Before the activity, I knew a fair bit about Core Competencies, I knew that Core Competencies help you reflect on your work and the understanding what you have learned. I understood that Core Competencies is about a reflection on knowledge about what you have learned. I knew about Core Competencies before this activity because I’ve started completing them during the start of middle school and ever since. So I have a basic understanding of what Core Competencies are about and this activity just expanded my knowledge about Core Competencies.

Question 2: How can your knowledge of the Core Competencies help you in your school life? Personal life? Please also write about any thoughts, wonderings, or reflections that you didn’t get to write about.

Core Competencies can greatly help you in your school life, not only its a reflection but its also a way to look back at what you have done and always have a record of it. When you post a Core Competencies on your Edublog, it would be there and other people can check it. This would mean that people can see what you have learned and all the positive things you have done. People can also see how you reflected on it and your understanding of the information in your Core Competencies. It can help you in your personal life such as if you have a struggle or problem, you can use your Core Competencies skills to reflect on what you have trouble with and improve and fix it.
