Stage 1 Complete

What are some of the things you learned about yourself as a student or a professional in Module I? Did you surprise yourself in any way? Were you proud of yourself? Were you at all disappointed in yourself? Why?

Self reflection hasn't really been a strong suit of mine; I tend to be rather hard on myself.  I feel like there are things that I should have done better on and don't always see the things that I did well.


One of the things that I feel I did well on, however, was helping others.  I have quite a bit of experience working with the things we covered in our Tech class and made sure that I was able to share that knowledge.  There were several times where I would finish my work quickly and went around helping my fellow students with their work.


I was very surprised when I got a certificate for being an "assassin" in our BC class.  I didn't think I stood out that much with my work.  But after hearing that it was also for my helping others in class, the reason made a little more sense.


Even with being recognized as I had been, I know there are still things that I need to work on.  One of the biggest things I need to work on is not putting my work off to the last possible moment, especially my homework.  It was a big problem for me in high school and soon spiraled out of control to where I wasn't even doing my work.  I've managed to get every assignment in for the module, but I could definitely have started on them sooner when I got home.  I also tend to be a bit quiet in a group, letting people give their input before I do, almost to the point where my ideas come a bit too late.
