what did you know about the Core Competencies before this activity? What did you learn? The things I knew about the core competencies prior to this activity was that there are several different types of core competencies (communication, creative thinking, Personal Awareness and Responsibility, Social Responsibility, Personal and Cultural Identity, and Critical thinking) I knew that they all meant different things with different questions attached to them. Over the course of this rap class we went more in depth of each one of the core competencies and I learned each one of them more in depth. Another thing I learned was how often we use each one of these competencies on a daily basis, and how the Canadian celebrities connect to multiple core competencies.

1. How can your knowledge of the Core Competencies help you in your school life? Personal life? My knowledge of the core competencies will help me re think my decisions at school swell as my personal life. It will help me when doing group projects (through collaboration, communication) In my personal life I fell as though it will help me   have good relationships with others, and learn from others.
