21st Century Skill: Information Skills
The Assignment and Why I Chose It:
Students were assigned to watch three videos to find and review multiple Chrome extensions. Mr. Hazlet provided videos for students to watch and find extensions to review and possibly install. Students then needed to write a summary of the look and functions of the extension. It was also optional if for the students to watch more than three videos if they wanted to. I chose this work sample to share on my portfolio because it is one of the many assignments I liked. I was also fairly proud of this assignment since it helped me in and out of school. I also think that this assignment demonstrates this 21st-century skill well. How I used Information Skills:
I think that this assignment addresses 21st-century skills: information Skills. For this assignment, we had to use multiple media sources. Some of these include YouTube, Google docs, and chrome extensions. We also had to use multiple research methods to find the best chrome extensions. We also used and integrated new technologies because of this assignment. |

Strengths and Current Growth:
To get the information we needed students had to use multiple forms of media. Learning about these extensions furthers our information skills and teaches us how to use information better. I was proud of this assignment because it referred to a lot of useful extensions for my laptop. I’ve also never used extensions on my laptop before this assignment. In all, I learned how to use my laptop better and I learned about an extension that can help with school work in the future as well.

Weak Points and New Growth:
If I were to improve or do this assignment again I’d probably choose different extensions to review. This would advance my knowledge on the topic and I’d find more use in more extensions. The most difficult task of this assignment was deciding what extensions to review. It was also difficult to navigate the extensions at first use.
