Personal Artifact
Future career interests (if known): Writer

Targeted soft skills you chose for this year:

1. Self Management
2. Study Skills

Description of Artifact: The 2 photographs I submitted to the Citrus Fair in February

Why did you choose this as one of your artifacts?

I picked this because it is my first year of taking photography. And I have always wanted to learn
how to take good pictures with an actual camera

How did your experience with this artifact change or impact you?
It impacted me because when I first started taking photos I wasn’t very good at it. But I have
improved a lot over the year. I feel like I can take some good photos now and I know about some
camera settings

Did you see growth in your targeted soft skills through the course of working on this artifact?
Explain.
Yes because in order to get better at taking pictures I need to study certain photo techniques. I
also used self management because I need to find time to edit my photos to make them look
better or touch them up. Study the techniques and editing my photos were critical in getting a
good outcome.

Provide an example of how the skills you practiced or the knowledge you gained via this artifact
may also be used in a career in which you are interested.

The skills I practiced will help me in the future because I will not always be good at something
when I start off. And I will need to practice to get better at it. I will need to learn how to the
things. I will need to be able to manage my time to get those things done on time.
