Blog 15 – Lesson 2 Reflection

~I was proud of the amount of props I had for my presentation. The honeycomb structure was one of them. It is used in order to stiffen/strengthen laminates/panels from things such as aircraft wings to car components.

1. What are you most proud of in your Lesson 2 Presentation and why?
1. I was most proud of my hook activity (ice sheet vs. ice sheet composite). It was a nice seeing everyone’s reaction to my activity. Moreover, my activity was well thought of and required a lot of preparation/planning. I am proud that it was both fun/engaging and relevant to my EQ answer.
2. -
1. What assessment would you give yourself on your Lesson 2 Presentation (self-assessment)?
1. I would give myself a P+/AE
2. Explain why you deserve that grade using evidence from the Lesson 2 component contract.
1. I believe I deserve this grade because I was able to meet all of the requirements and did not have any problems with any of them. I wouldn’t give myself a full AE because I was very close to going over time and had to cut the activity debrief short.
3. What worked for you in your Lesson 2?
1. My activity and my hook worked well for my Lesson 2.
4. What didn't work? If you had a time machine, what would you have done differently to improve your Lesson 2?
1. Timing was definitely very awkward for me. If I could have done differently to improve my Lesson 2 I would have tried to remove some unnecessary points in order to help my timing.
5. What do you think your answer #2 is going to be?
1. For my answer 2, I think I am going to try to expand upon composite materials and structures. I want to go to a completely different direction with my 3rd answer, but for now, I would like to expand upon composites.
