https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s A journal-like medium where I recorded information after every round of working on the service project. en-us 2022-02-16 13:23:31 UTC 2022-02-19 13:39:54 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f30a.png naishaluthra4 https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2050878713 Today, our group set up our first meeting to plan and discuss the SAA initiative. Together, we brainstormed an idea for our final product (a Twitter account) and formulated research questions in order to find relevant information. Advocacy is our chosen form of service learning as we can educate people on a wider scale, as a very large number of people have access to the internet. Additionally, Twitter is known to be a platform where opinions are discussed and debated on which is why we chose it to share our points of view on the issue of mental health misconceptions. Our agenda for this meeting was to finalize a concept for the initiative, devise a list of research question, and divide the research questions in a way that everyone would have to do an equal amount of work.]]> 2022-02-16 13:52:17 UTC https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2050878713 naishaluthra4 https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2050878977 Today we had a meeting to discuss what progress we made. We did not run into any major issues and had a fairly problem-free meeting. In this meeting, we discussed how much work we had already accomplished, and how much we had left to do. A strength I discovered today was how well I collaborate in times of stress. My entire group did a lot less work than we initially planned, and were apprehensive if we would be able to finish in time or not (consequently, a weakness I discovered was time-management which I solved using the same method as the prior reflection). I provided positive encouragement to my group and we all put our ideas together to come up with a more time-efficient solution; to finish the easy tasks first individually, then focus on the harder tasks together. ]]> 2022-02-16 13:52:24 UTC https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2050878977 naishaluthra4 https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2050879180 Today, we met as a group for the final time. We also met with our supervisor. In our group meeting, we talked about reflections and what information we would mention in them. We cleared each other's doubts and shared pieces of evidence. In our meeting with the supervisor, we were given advice about the reflections and were given comments on the success of our initiative. Overall, the feedback given was positive. ]]> 2022-02-16 13:52:30 UTC https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2050879180 naishaluthra4 https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2050945420 2022-02-16 14:19:30 UTC https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2050945420 naishaluthra4 https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2050946622 2022-02-16 14:20:00 UTC https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2050946622 naishaluthra4 https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2050947665 2022-02-16 14:20:26 UTC https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2050947665 naishaluthra4 https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2050948564 2022-02-16 14:20:51 UTC https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2050948564 naishaluthra4 https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2050949624 2022-02-16 14:21:17 UTC https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2050949624 naishaluthra4 https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2051017877 Communication/communicator: I practiced communication skills as we worked in groups and had to communicate
our thoughts and ideas well to each other in order
to reach our goals. We asked each other for
assistance when we needed it, and we shared our
ideas freely. We used verbal communication techniques to make the ideas we had for the initiative clear

Social (ATL): Because of the opportunity to work with a group, I was able to develop my social skills. My group and I practiced group decision-making and maintained respectful decorum in our conversations.

Inquirers (Learner profile): This learner profile attribute was adopted as we devised a list of research questions based on social needs and personal interests.  ]]> 2022-02-16 14:46:04 UTC https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2051017877 naishaluthra4 https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2051031787 My group and I defined this day as an SAA workday. We all spent a few hours individually researching and answering the research questions we created a few weeks ago. This process was very time-consuming because a lot of research had to be done and I wanted to make sure that it was very detailed. In the end, I feel like this was accomplished. Through this task, I realized that procrastination is a weakness of mine. I didn't manage my time well and only managed to get a portion of the work I planned to complete done. I overcame this challenge by working extra hard in the consequent days and using a planner for the next workdays. A strength I discovered was my research skills. I was easily able to pick out the most relevant sources and paraphrase the information with little difficulty. ]]> 2022-02-16 14:51:46 UTC https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2051031787 naishaluthra4 https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2051033850 2022-02-16 14:52:36 UTC https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2051033850 naishaluthra4 https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2051050188 Research skills (ATL): Research was the most prominent skill I applied today. Through a list of predetermined questions, I had to scour the internet for primary and secondary sources that presented relevant information to answer them. I organized the information in paragraphs and detailed bullet point notes, making them easy to understand.

Reflective: I developed this skill as I was forced to reflect on my self-management skills and had to make changes to my habits and behaviours based on this self-reflection. ]]> 2022-02-16 14:59:21 UTC https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2051050188 naishaluthra4 https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2056489068 Thinking (ATL): My group and I were faced with a challenge of not being able to come up with a viable solution for our problem. Because of this, I was made to use my critical thinking and problem-solving skills to come up with a practical and successful solution. 

Balanced (learner profile): I hadn't been putting much focus on the SAA tasks and had been spending my times doing other things. After an insightful group discussion, I was able to prioritize the tasks I needed to do, and could balance SAA with all the other schoolwork and recreational activities I wished to do. ]]> 2022-02-19 13:21:32 UTC https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2056489068 naishaluthra4 https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2056491656 Today was a very crucial day for the progress of our project. One of the team members created the account and gave the rest of us access. We all put down tweet ideas on the common document and searched for memes and infographics we could use. Additionally, we made a table to show how frequently we will post and who will be the one posting each of those days. A challenge I faced today was finding memes that were relevant and appropriate for the Twitter account. I overcame this challenge by applying my research skills and typing different keywords into the search bar. ]]> 2022-02-19 13:25:39 UTC https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2056491656 naishaluthra4 https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2056492622 2022-02-19 13:26:56 UTC https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2056492622 naishaluthra4 https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2056496434 Open-minded (learner profile): I had to search for interesting and humorous memes that had significant relevance to our service initiative. In order to do this, I had to sift through a variety of media and kept an open-mind to see how the memes I chose would look in different perspectives and contexts; I had to ensure that all of them were respectful and could not be seen as offensive in any context. 

Research (ATL): Since I had to look through a lot of content, i developed the research ATL as I had to narrow down my searches and choose the graphics that were the most interesting and funny.

Also, we created the SAA activity on Managebac last week (this happened a lot later because of communication problems). After adding the activity, we uploaded all the evidence we had. ]]> 2022-02-19 13:37:29 UTC https://padlet.com/naishaluthra4/unfk9vgvnq168t1s/wish/2056500220
