Name of the Assignment: Sell That Property Project Subject: Algebra 1 Facilitator/Teacher: Ms.Jeanie Description of Work/Assignment:
We had a project called the Sell that Property Project, we had to pick three properties and explain each one. We had to give a slogan, a description of the property, examples, and pictures.
Which 21st Century Skill do you feel this assignment addresses, and why?
I think that this project addresses the Financial, Economic, and Business Literacy 21st Century Skill. The Financial, Economic, and Business Literacy 21st Century Skill is knowing how to make appropriate personal economic choices, understanding the role of the economy in society, and using entrepreneurial skills to enhance workplace productivity and career options. This project doesn't really deal with economy, except for the name of the project. Although, we had to give a slogan to possibly give interest to customers, give a description that describes what the property has, and give examples and pictures that allows the customers to see what we described in the property description. This is why I think that this project addresses the Financial, Economic, and Business Literacy 21st Century Skill.
What are you most proud of from this assignment, and why?
I am most proud of the teamwork and organization of the project Dylan and I worked on. I have never worked with Dylan Morris and he showed great teamwork skills and organized work.
How did you develop and/or improve upon your 21st Century Skill with this assignment?
I developed this 21st Century Skill by being introduced to it and being able to recognize that I was using this skill.
What was most difficult about completing this task?
The most difficult thing about completing this assignment was the project itself. It was time-consuming because we wanted the assignment to look organized and professional.
How could you improve this work? If you could start over, what would you do differently?
Something that I could do to improve is probably more clear in the description of the property and put animations in the google slides to make it more creative and fun.
How does this relate to what you have learned in the past?
This assignment relates to what I’ve learned in the past by explaining how the math project relates to real-life situations. We worked on the different types of properties in 8th grade and a little bit in both 6th and 7th grade. So this project was different, although helped me understand and review the content.
How can you apply this to future learning?
I can apply this knowledge to future learning by knowing how to sell and explain what the property is. This will help me know how to be descriptive and be able to try to give interest to others by being descriptive.
