CTS is a place where you are meant to become an explorer! As you begin a new one-credit course, it is up to you to gain control of your journey to success. The goal here is to answer the question: "Why am I taking this course?"
- Take a good look at the one-credit course you are starting. Review the AGR3000 Learning Outcomes.
- Choose one of the two following assignment options to demonstrate your work on goal setting and self-reflection.
Option 1: Checklist
Assignment
Based on what you know about the course outcomes, create a checklist with at least five course-related goals you intend to achieve during this one-credit course. For each item in your checklist, provide an explanation of why this goal is important to your future goals.
Option 2: Portfolio
Assignment
Describe your current career pathway plans and think about how you plan to use a portfolio to capture your journey through this safety course. What form will your portfolio take? Your portfolio will need to be able to house documents and assignments and a reflection for each assignment you choose to include. Let your teacher know what form your portfolio will take. You may use any form of digital portfolio.
To Do
Through writing, a mind web, an illustration, or another method agreed upon with your teacher, you will indicate your current career pathway and which three learning outcomes you anticipate will most support your journey on your career pathway. The Course Learning Outcomes for AGR 3000: Agricultural Safety will help you choose your three focus learning outcomes. This will be the first addition to your portfolio for this course.
Look at the Course Learning Outcomes: AGR3000 - Agricultural Safety to help you choose the learning outcomes of focus for your portfolio.
For each learning outcome you have chosen, be prepared to explain what elements of this course most supported your learning journey.
A final reflection will be completed at the end of the course. It will describe your learning journey and explain the elements of this course that you believe were significant for your learning journey. You may wish to include some of these elements as evidence to support your reflection.
A Fresh Start
You must complete one of the assignment options above, either constructing the Checklist or beginning a Portfolio. In your assignment, clearly identify the option you are submitting.
