In this workshop, we learned about our Career DNA. I don't really care about my career DNA but it does offer some insight into my interests. As expected, I got interests and career clusters centered around technology.

In this workshop, we learned about Child Labor Laws and Workplace Safety. We learned about the importance of our rights in the workplace and important measures to take when working during the day. For example, one of things to watch out for is getting into our employers personal vehicle.

In this workshop, we learned about writing resumes. A resume is usually a one page piece of paper that includes your qualifications for work. Due to the importance of your resume, it should be strictly formal; it must have consistent font sizes, proper grammar and spelling, and action language.

In our first workshop, we went over what would be going on with the rest of our workshops. We also went over our CTE requirements in order to graduate. Many of these requirements we have already satisfied over the years but there are still some left to fulfill.

In December, we took a trip to the Cornell Tech Campus on Roosevelt Island to present our work on our Shark Tank projects. Each of the groups presented both their projects and told us the timeline of each project. We got to listen to the design process of each group and see what went wrong and what went right for them. Afterwards, we got to have some pizza and go back to school to dismiss ourselves.

At CS Fair 2019, I was selected to take part in the Student Showcase where I showed my work and demonstrated my skills to people at the fair. In my case, I showed my Shark Tank Project to people and told them about the web design process and what things we considered throughout. I was able to meet a lot of people including industry professionals and students alike. I wasn't able to actually go around and take a look around the fair itself but I enjoyed meeting a lot of people that day.

The video talks about the importance of critical thinking and problem solving. In the video, one of the employees uses critical thinking to find a solution to a problem. When using critical thinking to find solutions to may problems, that is called problem solving. In the future, we will be approached with many problems in which we will have to use the skills to solve said problems.
