Lee Katz 12th grade Ms. Harris MITA Portfolio 2014 I have been going to MIT since 6th grade
ELAH evidence • Francisco Jimenez • Book chat-” The circuit” • group and individual, PR project • Learning about literature • The final product was: • Book chat to classmates • Authors favorite food • Shared food with class
ELAH reflection • Presentation skills • Learned how to interest classmates in reading the book and sharing the culture • Read the book • Met the author and spoke with him • Listened to author talk about his book • It was cool because I got to hear a different story from another world
MATH evidence • String art project • Geometric shapes and equations • Individual project, PR project • Final product-the actual board with string, construction based on math instructions.
MATH reflection • Carpentry skills, algebraic problem solving • work independently stay on task • Buy all materials, doing the equations, construction • Big investment of time • Finishing hard work and getting it done. • Earning a good grade
DC evidence • Destination DC project US capitol • Government in the united states and how it proceeds, research and presentation skills • Individual work • Long term semester project • DC brochure project • DC research paper • DC presentation
DC reflection • Presentation skills, writing skills, research skills, editing and citation skills, creativity, technology skills. • I didn’t feel comfortable with presentation skills for my projects but it helped me not become nervous • Research skills improved • Process- picking a site, note taking, writing a paper, editing and finalizing using information to create a brochure and presentation
Science evidence • Physics project, marble roller coaster • Movement and friction • Individual project • Semester long project • Final product, design a roller coaster to make a marble go in a cup • Grade based on if coaster was effective
Science reflection • Construction skills, visualizing skills • Taught me about friction having a slope track led to less friction and more movement • Process: analyze designs and choose one of your own and create it, test it, got grade • Taught me to manage time and work
Robotics evidence • Programming a robot • Programming software • Group project • Year long project • Final product-construction and operation of a robot
Robotics reflection • Programming skills • Teamwork skills • Process: look at instructions, building the robot, using the software correctly and programming it, test the robot, demonstrate • A lot of speaking and listening skills, challenged me at math • Future career applications
Interest assessment • Results • Artistic, social, realistic • Job families • Installation maintenance and repair • Building and grounds cleaning • Personal care and service occupations
vocational interests • Not attending university, pursuing vocational track • Vallejo program • Solano career technical education and business • Automotive technician • I have applied to the Solano program • Toured automotive Fleet facility and made a contact for a job
