Reflection on Learning And Global Context
This project has helped me a lot in understanding my topic and also my interest in discovering and creating new things. I always had a passion for using a computer from a young age. This therefore helped me to create one and then help other people who have the same desire of using and creating a Gaming PC. This project helped me to learn about different parts that I had no knowledge about previously. It helped me to research more about the process and functioning when built. Well, after creating one for myself I had learned a lot and was always ready to help people. The project also broadened my understanding of the global context of science and technological innovation that was best suited to my project. Focusing on this topic has helped me understand the various innovations that can be made in the world and how they can help the world. I really understand how the machine works and how to treat it.
Reflecting on the development as an IB learner:
Through this process, I think I have developed 2 IB learners profile in specific; inquirers and thinkers. First, I feel like I have learned the contour of an inquirer as the projects have made me research a lot on my products and parts. It also made me research a lot about how to go through and build a Pc. It helped me inquire and help the community. This skill I have managed to acquire now will be used at full potential. I had to research a lot on behalf of my product and I enjoyed it too.
In addition to this, I was a thinker where I had to think a lot about this huge process. I had to figure out every component used in this build and how it can be turned out to be effective. Thinking has always been one of my strengths as it has helped me in various things in my life. In my opinion, I could have done way better, if I could reach a greater audience and could help a lot more people. I believe I have articulated myself with the help of video but would have been perfect if I could get it to the outer world. To wrap up, I really did my best and could definitely have a lot more improvements here and there. I developed a lot more skills during this project and could implement a lot too.
During the process of analysis depicted that Communication and Social interactive skills are essential in my project because before starting, I had to ask for expert advice for the best parts I could get for my pc. I had to ask for the best fit for myself and a community that is focusing for the best bang for the buck product. Communication skills are also considered as essential in terms of research about the products. The project helped me to improve my social and communication skills as it helped me talk to people and get more knowledge about my project. I had to use the same skills when talking to my supervisor to reflect on the feedback. Talking to people will help you to think out of the box and be innovative. It will make you think differently from other people and will end up with a better solution to the problem. Talking to peers and my supervisor about the project helped me get more ideas about the project and make it a better one. Taking honest feedback and not being embarrassed or depressed in any way helped me in this project a lot. I also understood that communication is not just about taking and is also about listening and taking and respecting ideas from others as well.
My thinking skills were reasonable at first, but it improved as the product was manufactured and reached this stage. Critical thinking is an advantage for me because I like to think about what I want and be consistent. Choosing the right parts and using my thinking skills helped me find the most suitable computer for my purpose. I can successfully create the goals and plans necessary to achieve a quality product. This project has further improved my thinking skills, I explore and learn more. This project made me think out of the box as I went through a lot of obstacles while building it. I was able to make logical conclusions and some rational judgements. After all, I was able to apply my knowledge from my research to the personal project.
