End of  Quarter March 2009	Please answer the questions fully in the spaces below.
Name	Yejun Lee
Module	video and Green foot
Has the atmosphere in the class changed since the first half of the quarter? How has it changed?	um... no I think the atmosphere is the same. It is very calm and nice to work
How have your experiences been different in the second half of the quarter? Are you more or less satisfied with your progress? Are you doing more of less work out of class?	yeah I am less satisfied because I didn't get to do much or finish the Google project
What advice can you give to students who are about to start on the module that you are just finishing? What can you say that would help them have a more effective learning experience?	I think telling to set up a goal would help a lot in class. And spending time outside class would also help much in learning experience.
What will you have achieved by the end of the module? What will you have learned? What projects will you have completed? What have you learned about yourself as a learner.	I fee like I didn't do much because I didn't have a goal that I wanted to achieve.
Imagine that you want to employ a person with the kind of information technology skills that you have.  Write one paragraph describing the skills that you (as the employer) are looking for. Start the paragraph like this.. Our company is looking for someone who…..	Our company is looking for someone who... knows how to work with a team. We also are looking for someone who has enough skill to teach employers.
Have you contributed in any ways to the other members of this learning community?	Um... yeah I guess. I had a lot of help from Anna for projects like the Google mystery. She helped me writing a script.
What module would you like to take in the second quarter? Please explain your choice.	I want more for Green Foot. I feel like I need MORE time for it.
Your teacher will be entering a grade-in-progress in PowerSchool for end-of-quarter (mid-semester). He will be considering your performance in terms of the assessment guidelines. At this stage he will be asking about the extent to which the statements below apply to your performance in the course.	Highlight the word(s) that you think describes your performance. Look at the statements in the left column. Comment on your performance in each area. Use the questions as guidelines.
Typically this student makes effective use of class time by increasing his/her competence and confidence using software that he/she has chosen. Are you using your time effectively? Are you learning each time you come to class? Are you becoming more competent and confident?	inadequate adequate good outstanding (highlight and comment) I try to increase my confidence. But I have hard time working 'in class' because I am a type who prefer to study alone during night when there are no sounds or anyone around.
He/she attends all class sessions, coming and leaving on time, making sure to make up missing time by working during free periods or at home. Have you missed class this quarter? How many times? What have you done to make up lost time?	inadequate adequate good outstanding (highlight and comment) I haven't missed any class so I am outstanding in this part.
His/her oral communication during class is focused on the learning tasks that he/she is engaged in. Are your conversations in class focused on your learning tasks?	inadequate adequate good outstanding (highlight and comment) well sometimes I talk about other things with Anna but I feel like I don't talk much... (right? :P)
His/her written communication (logs, e-mails, and reports) are done according to deadlines and contain enough information for the teacher to understand what he/she is doing, what kinds of problems he/she is facing and how he/she feels about his/her learning experiences. Are you consistently doing your blogs? How does your BLog keeping compare to the first half of the quarter? Are you providing more details of your learning? Do you take care to express yourself clearly and use conventional grammar and spelling?	inadequate adequate good outstanding (highlight and comment) This quoter, I wrote all my blog post so I think I am outstanding. I also try to write and write in details.  and yeah I indeed am consistently doing my blog so YEP :)
During class he/she remains focused on the task at hand and generally respects the integrity of the learning environment for all students. Do you stay on task throughout the block? Do you effectively resist temptations to use the computer for unrelated activities (other homework, e-mail, facebook, youtube, sports results, music etc.)? Do you resist temptations to takes unnecessary breaks, arrive late, leave early?	inadequate adequate good outstanding (highlight and comment) I don't disturb others and I think I am pretty focused on my work. Well yeah I go to Youtube to listen to music. But I don't watch any videos. I go to Youtube for music only and often for tutorials for softwares. I also have never been late or leave class early. So I think I am outstanding!
He/she has positive attitudes towards acquiring technology skills, and makes a conscious effort to acquire new skills and apply them in meaningful ways. Have you found ways to apply your skills beyond classroom exercises?	inadequate adequate good outstanding (highlight and comment) Well I am not outstanding because I don't learn like 'tons' of new skills every class since I have a hard time to be 100% focused in a open environment. Um. Sadly, not yet. But I think I will be able to apply my skills in the future.
He/she is an independent learner, who tries to solve problems by himself/herself, but finds effective ways to overcome problems using a variety of other resources. Have your become more independent as a learner? What resources are you using to learn effectively?	inadequate adequate good outstanding (highlight and comment) I try to solve problems I find. I usually just read the text again and again to see if I am right. If I still don't get the problem, I ask the teacher. I don't know about this class making more independent as a learner since I pretty already am a independent learner. The resources I use is mainly the paper that Mr. D gives me.
He/she is respectful of all members of this learning community and his/her behavior is in compliance with all school policies, in particular the AUP (Appropriate Use Policy) and Academic Honesty Policy. Are you respectful, appropriate, honest?	inadequate adequate good outstanding (highlight and comment) I don't say any swear words to people and am respectful, appropriate and honest.
Your grade will take into account your performance in the above areas and also..  The amount of documented learning time that you have spent in and out of class. The amount and/or depth of material that you have covered	ok
If full attendance, coming on time, being on-task, and leaving on time (not including any work outside class) represents 100%. Estimate what time percentage have you put into this class? (take into account any documented work that you did in school outside class time, or at home)	100% I really believe that I am outstanding those.
To what extent will you have completed your module by the end of the quarter? How far did you get? What chapters did you cover? What projects have been completed?	I covered very very little on Green Foot. And am disappointed myself that I didn't get to do much as I wanted to do. Like the Google project, I was disappointed because it got crashed... because of many obstacles.
What was your last grade-in-progress (see PowerSchool) To what extent does this grade reflect your overall performance A - (95) - Outstanding B - (85) - Good (the descriptions above apply to me) C -(75) - Adequate D - (65) Inadequte	I think I am more of a A-
This is an appropriate course for this student and the performance of the student is such that it can be said that the student is meeting the standards well. His/her work, on the whole, is good. How would you rate your overall performance during the quarter?Please explain.	inadequate adequate good outstanding (highlight and comment) I think I deserve a 93 because I have been acting very well but just the fact that I wasn't able to finish the Google thing and not being much a head in Green foot
What could you do to improve your performance in the second quarter?	GREEN FOOT FO SURE
What module are you interested in doing during the second quarter?	GREEN FOOT FO SURE
Is there any other information that you would like to provide your teacher to help decide on your grade-in-progress for the quarter?	Um... nope.. but the fact that I had less than two weeks of Green foot so... that I am not that behind in Green foot.
