Section V
Final Reflections
















We have been doing a lot of improvements on our presentation skills. Instead of using paragraphs, we started using bullet points. Starting to connect one slide to another, how it is connected and created a chain reaction on the topic.
        Our biggest struggle is the preparation and mental readiness. We sometimes feel that we hadn’t prepare enough even if we did. Sometimes, we also go off topic and got a bad grade for doing that.

We started off improving our responsibilities. A lot of us like to put things off in the last minuted such as a LDL. A lot of our members only do it in the morning of the LDL. They didn’t even prepare it at night. So we implemented Kaizen in our life. We kept rushing ourselves to do it now and not later or tomorrow.

     We also started to connect the things we were suppose to do in the presentations. For example, if we were suppose to talk about the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, we connected why and how the black hand assassinated him. And not just copy paste stuff from the internet. Instead we read the articles and reflected it on ourselves and made our own reasons on why they did it.

We were late on implementing Kaizen on our lives though. The last Portfolio we did wasn’t a five month project at all. It was a 3 week project. We crammed everything in 3 weeks because we were soccer balls and inexperienced.

Bloom Notes



In History, it shows that the pyramid above that we need to use this concept to have a higher order thinking. It shows, that we have an active class to order to interact and learn from each other about the topic. We are formed to groups and needs to apply the “Bloom’s Taxonomy” in our portfolio and we need to remember this important concept for the next level.
