Communication, Future

Hi everyone welcome back to my blog, today I am going to be talking about communication. This week I have been doing the 3 c's and in my other blogs I did collaboration and creativity and now I'm doing communication. We have to communicate in our groups for PBL because we need to practice communicating with everyone.

Why is communication important for our future?
I think it is important because we need to be able to talk to people socially so they understand what we are saying and what they need to be doing. We need to be communicating in sports, work, school and activity's that involve many people. We need to communicate within our daily lives because it makes relationships and friendships.

What are the different ways we can communicate messages?
We can communicate them by cellphones, socially, another person and more. I think socially is the best option because it is coming from your perspective and not anyone else's. We need to be more social because in our days everyone is on electronics when they need to be going outside.

Do we communicate in different ways compared to 10 years ago?
There is a lot more social media these days so most people use cellphones now days. Back then there wasn't that much social media so people communicated through letters and talking. There isn't much of a difference because people talk, but they just use a bit more social media to connect with each other.

What do you think? Has communication changed in the past 10 years?

Creativity n.o 1

Hi everyone welcome back to my blog today I am going to be talking about creativity. For our PBL we had to be creative and get ideas for our fair games. For creativity we had to be creative for my fair game and how we were going to plan the game out.
What kind of thinker am I?
I am a creative thinker, I had to think about what materials we needed for this project, and how we were going to plan our project, and what colours to use and what wood to use.
What creative thinking skills do I have and which could I work on and why?
My thinking skills is when I have so many ideas that I can choose from but I narrow it down to one and then collaborate on that idea. I need to work on listening to everyone's creative ideas and maybe making all their ideas in to one so we can make it really creative.

Tell me ways that you have been creative?

Collaboration

Hi everyone welcome back to my blog today I am going to be talking about collaboration. For my PBL we had to talk and collaborate. Because the teachers put us in PBL groups with new people so we all had to work on collaboration and working with each other. I have collaborated in my group by helping with ideas for the fair, and ideas of what paint colours we could use. Overall I think my group does really well collaborating, my whole group finished our game and we did so well working together.

When have you collaborated?
