Rational: Reflection is the basis for knowing about our learning. One of the ways that can help us reflect is to look back to where we
once were and see how far we have come. Over the course of this semester, there will be many important reflective moments. Let’s
begin with the end in mind. Today, as we begin the course, you likely have a vision for what you want to achieve by the end of the
summer. As we near the end of the semester, we will look back on this time capsule and reflect on the experience and the snapshot that
you create will be very helpful.
Please note: the grade for this will not be awarded until we open the capsule near the end of the semester.
Please answer the following questions in complete sentences and paragraphs. Please provide evidence for your discussion. If you add
additional information, please cite using APA. You may write this using first person as this is a reflective piece. Approx 200 Words.
What is your definition of success? How do you measure it? What are you goals for the semester?
My personal definition of success is when we surpass the expectations that we put on ourselves. It can be hard to physically
measure what success it. I can only “measure” it if I am continuously setting goals and expectations. I also think it is very
important to make sure our goals are achievable and maintainable. My main goal for the semester is to keep a healthy balance
in my school and personal life. I want to make sure I am learning in all my classes but also able to maintain my mental and
physical health that I have achieved over the past year.
What is your definition of learning? What will you need to learn if you are to be successful? How do you learn best?
Learning is when you have long term memory of something but you fully comprehend the idea or concept. If you have learned
it than it should be possible to explain it to others. Thinking learning balance in all aspects of life is how we are successful. I
need to learn what is important to me to decide if I am successful. I learn best by doing, even if I learn by doing something
wrong. I find doing something creates muscle memory and I find it easier to remember.
PART 2 – Artefacts
Now that you have created some beginning definitions of success and learning that are specific to you… now we can put together some
artefacts that represent you. Remember that time capsules are full of artefacts, objects, images, music, positive messages, funny stories,
etc. As this is a digital time capsule, you have the chance to gather some digital artefacts and deposit them here. You may put images or
links into this document. Some of the questions you may want to answer would be, who are you now, what do you do for fun, who is
important to you in your life, how do you feel? Use the artefacts to tell a story. Below are some ideas.
