Assimilation is the process where individuals or groups of differing ethnic heritage are absorbed into the dominant culture of a society. A good example of assimilation is first nation kids in residential schools because in the residential schools, the kids are taught only European culture and were never able to express their own culture. this was enforced so hard that after the residential schools, a lot of the kids who are now adults have forgotten how to speak their language. When looking at this image, I see that on the left side the kids are very dull, sad, and not lifely, I feel that this shows the kids during residential schools because they look very sad and like they lost apart of themselves which I think is why they look grey in the picture. On the right side, the kids look very happy and full of life. This is because there are no more residential schools and they are free to express their culture and you can tell by seeing that they have gotten back what was part of them which is their color in this picture

 Self-Reflection 

Describe how the artifact you selected shows your strengths & growth in specific core competencies. The prompt questions on the left – or other self-assessment activities you may have done – may guide your reflection process. 

 

Tell me about one of your learning goals. (Prompt: Something you want to get better at or learn how to do.) How did you come to that goal? Tell me about something you are doing to help you work on that goal? 

 

One of my learning goals is to get better at French, I could do this by spending free time if I have any on French vocabulary and memorizing it. 

 

What do you do to help yourself when you are feeling a bit discouraged about your work? 

 

I usually take like a 30 minute break away from the assignment just to give my brain a short break, because I feel that when I am feel discouraged about my work, my brain is just usually tired and I need a break to get my mind focused again. 

 

How has creating that personal plan affected your mental health? 

 

It has made me more mentally aware because ever since the end of last year, I feel that my mental awareness went down, but since making that and reflecting on my personal awareness, I feel that my personal awareness has increased since then.
