Another Week, Another Point :D

Week 5 

This weak was a good workout for the me and the club. First let's start with the club. From the last week's change to the format, this week's games were even across the board. I believe this is an indication of effectiveness of team making, not forgetting about the 1st 3 week's data collection process. 

 

The format is the same one, because it was easier to used the template which I have constructed last week. 

All the data has been updated through excel and word processing. I have learn those skills from previous years in ICT classes which are very handy when it comes to data analysis.(Thanks Mr.Bailey and of course Vlad :D)

Behind the scene

Now I want to show you some of the data processing I have done in my worksheet. 

Formulas such as SUM function and IF function are used to automatize the calculating process. In this case the member's score will be added together and then using the IF function I can sort them accordingly for the High score.

Here is how the program calculate the points for win/tie/lose. The "I" column is hidden usually, because it is not necessity to show the column but it is essential to the calculation. 

 In conclusion, I want to discuss about my personal growth in playing basketball. From last week's 2 points to this weeks 6 points, I have improved in my accuracy, but not by myself alone. Before this week started, I asked my teammate and good friend Johnny on some tips. He told be that the long shots are not for me, at least for now. I should shoot close range, near basket shoots. Lay ups would be good as well if there is a gap in defense. Following those tips I scored more, but there is still a long road ahead of me. Now I should focus on my strengths in basketball and look for potential places that I can grow, of course never forgetting to collaborate with teammates and pass as often and as accurate as possible. 

 My goal for next week is to score 8 to 10 points for my team. As for the Club, I will add a section on my worksheet to accumulate the weekly points to a table. 

 At last, a few food for thought: the road to passionate life starts from doing what your are interested as often as possible and still be able to continue.How do you imagine your passionate life?  

Some personal evaluations :D

After yesterdays success in making a weekly plan, I thought to myself, how can I understand myself better? Suddenly, an idea came to my mind: a personal evaluation.This would a good place to rest and evaluate my relative weaknesses and strength across subject and even some personal issues.
Without further ado, here is some screen shoots how does this file looks like:

This is just the front page and the beginning of the file. I started with my academics which includes 6 subject plus TOK and CAS. In each subject I assessed myself as objectively as I could. As you can see, the blue text represent what I currently doing well while the red text means my weaknesses within the subject.

In addition, you would ask what is that in green text then? Those are some my personal recommendations for myself on how to improve my weaknesses. Each recommendation should directly tackle each weakness.

Finally, those are some of my personal weaknesses in general. I may follow my own recommendations but I also may combine them with my present cas activities to make little changes at a time. This should a gradual process because people can't change that fast, at least I can't.
I conclusion, I have showed sufficient evidence of self-evaluations which reinforces with one of the cas objectives: increase awareness of personal weaknesses and strength. Furthermore, I have shown my commitment by making it a proper document(PDF file) and committing to improve upon my weaknesses. I feel that this activity give me a better understanding of myself which would be very useful tool in future because self critic is a quality employers look for.
