I will demonstrate this skill in my reflections and labs. I will address information properly in order to complete my assignments.

I will demonstrate this skill within my reflections and also when annotating articles. I will show a deep understanding of texts in order to complete this skill. I am okay at this skill, but I would like to improve, especially on my annotations. I typically don\u2019t do annotations well, so I would like to improve on this.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>12C: Works independently towards goals by contributing and meeting deadlines.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This section will be worth 25% of my grade for the semester.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my words, this learning outcome means that I will work by myself in order to complete my work on time. I will demonstrate this by always turning my assignments in on time (unless there are unforeseen circumstances). I will strive to do my best work. I will make sure I turn in my reflections, ePortfolios, and labs on or before the due dates. I tend to be very good at this skill and it is something I would like to keep strengthening. This will force me to not procrastinate on my homework.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>13A: Demonstrates a thorough understanding of context, audience, and purpose.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This section will be worth 20% of my grade for the semester.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my words, this learning outcome means that I can understand conditions, audience and motivation of readings. I will demonstrate this skill through showing my understanding of these points. I will do this within my readings and labs. I would like to improve this skill in order to further my knowledge within CODES. I believe that professors give us readings and information for a reason, so I would like to fully comprehend our readings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>13C: Uses language to skillfully communicate with clarity and fluency.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This section will be worth 20% of my grade for the semester.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my words, this learning outcome means that my language will be clear and will flow smoothly will demonstrate this skill within my SA\u2019s, Lab Analysis\u2019, and when being a discussion leader.
