Reflection Format: Use this form to brainstorm your ideas to revise your ePortfolio. Think about
the pillars youve met and how youve met them.
1. Describe how your academic skills have grown through the projects youve
completed and the book work we have done on this unit.
I have become a lot better at graphing both online and on paper. At first I struggled a lot, but I
eventually got the hang of it.
2. Describe the Leading Edge Pillars applied in the projects listed above.
a. Tech Savvy: We created two graphs using Google Sheets, the BMI practice graph, and
the Cell phone plan graph.
b. Critical Thinking: All of these projects involved critical thinking, because they were
graphs. You had to enter the exact data in order to create a perfect and correct graph.
3. Now go to your ePortfolio. Insert one project that you brainstormed above, along
with this short written reflection.
