I think that the skill to inhale and exhale oxygen is pretty important. :)
Seriously though, I think that the ability research reliable information is pretty important.

The skill to inhale and exhale is an extremely important part of my life. Oxygen intake is extremely vital and by not knowing how, you could never truly live, literally! In fact, by reading this post, you probably know how to breathe! I hope that everyone will be able to learn this amazing skill.

[Yet another revision]
Like others, I think that the most important skill I learned is to know how reliable a source of information is.To me, it's like being a spy. I would need to know which information is correct and which isn't. I think that this skill is going to follow me through-out my life because of its importance.

I think that the most important skill I learned was probably being able to find very reliable sites because you never know who put information up.

The most important skill I learned this year was how to use prezi and weebly

Mr. Hong

6/11/2012 12:22:00 pm

@ Oreo - But what specific skills did you learn from using Prezi and Weebly? Organizational skills? Research skills? etc.

One of the most important skills I have learned is research skills. Before, whenever there was a project, I used to put any website and never checked it's reliability. But after learning about the C.R.A.A.P test, I was able to see the difference between a reliable website and a non reliable website.

I think a great skill I learned is how to improve my own work with the feedback from my peers.

Mr. Hong

6/11/2012 12:22:35 pm

@ Everyone - Peer assessments/feedback are both a huge part of the learning process! :)

In my opinion, the most important skill I have learned, is how to read. If I didn't know how to read, the world would not make sense. I couldn't write this right now, or learn anything because I wouldn't understand it, and I would probably be acting like a 2 year old.

Mr. Hong

6/11/2012 12:23:09 pm

@ Greg - Did you learn this skills this year? Do you mean reading strategies? :)

A great skill that I learned would be finding reliable sources. Before I knew the C.R.A.A.P test, I would always just go with the first website I found. Now, I'm more careful when I'm researching.

Knowing how to eat is another very important skill in life! You may be wondering "why is this skill important?" Well it is important because if we did not know how to eat you would not be reading this right know. If you are reading this I know that you can eat, good job give yourself a pat on the back! :)

Mr. Hong

6/11/2012 12:23:45 pm

@ Superduperman - I don't think you learned this skill this year. ;)

(REVISED)
In my opinion the most important thing that I learned this year was learning how to get reliable information using the C.R.A.A.P test. This test has helped me with reliable websites. When I am doing a project or even just a little research I can us the C.R.A.A.P test to make sure the site is reliable. Having this tool makes things easier so I know it is reliable rather than just going to a random site and getting my information when the information may even be fake.

I think the most important thing I've learned this year was how to find reliable websites because it's very important find correct information.

Mr. Hong

@ Mike - How do you test the reliability of a website?

@ Everyone - What does the acronym 'C.R.A.A.P.' stand for? Do you remember? Check your Google Drive/Docs and answer this question.

I think reserch skill was the most important skill I've learned this year. In high school, we have lots of research things to do than we do now. Luckly, we learned how to find a good info by using CRAAP test.

A skill that has helped me with my research skills is the C.R.A.A.P test. It has helped me know what website is right or has the right info.

Mr. Hong

6/11/2012 01:07:30 pm

@ Dragon - I want to commend you once again for doing such a great job on your 'LEARNING JOURNEY'! I think you are the only student to describe what you learned about circumference, area, etc. WELL DONE!

A skill that I learned that helped me the most would be my research skills because it helped me get the right info about any topic. Involving the C.R.A.A.P test.

Mr. Hong

6/11/2012 01:16:23 pm

@ Cole - What does the C.R.A.A.P. stand for? I wonder if anyone is reading my responses today?

A skill that was very important that I learned was critical thinking. Before I came into Gr.7, I didn't put much thought into questions, and wrote about a sentence or two. Since I've come to Mr.Hongs class, I learned how to make a deep thinking question, and than answer it while thinking really deeply. Get a good response and make it even better and deeper than before. In my opinion, to be able to think critically will help all though-out high school.

Mr. Hong

@ Ammit - I am really proud to be your teacher! You are so curious about so many different topics that we discuss in class and you always take ownership of your learning by searching out knowledge! Keep it up!

@ Everyone - I am humbled to be your teacher. All of you make me proud to have chosen the profession that I have chosen.

I think the two most important skills that i have learned is. Organisation-Ever since i found the internet and all the things that i can do to save stuff my organisation skills was really good I can find almost anything that i saved like the blink of an eye.
Research-my research skills have improved alot since i was tought the C.R.A.A.P. test i could probably find anything really fast if my teacher were to tell me something to search up.

The most important skill I learned this year was, without a doubt my research skills. The reason why is because before I actually thought that if you go on Google, and type in something you want to know information about. All the information on every website was reliable. But after I had learned the C.R.A.A.P test, I learned how to tell which information was reliable, not only information but also websites. With this skill I think it will help me in the future for many things. Ex. Projects, speeches, assignments, etc..

I think the most important skill that I have learned is year is how to find reliable websites using the CRAAP test. I chose this skill because in past times I was usually worried of finding the wrong information and handing it in, but now since I know the CRAAP test I can find better information.
