Self and Unit Evaluation

Self
1. I am most proud of my creation of a cell and the depiction of mitosis. I am also proud of my second compendium, I feel that it was thorough and I can look back on it later on and refresh my memory.
2. I could have used some improvement on my ethical issues essay. I will be managing my time better in the next unit in order to have more time to spend on the next one. I also could have used some improvement on my first compendium, although I spent quite a bit of time on it, it did not include all that it should have
3. I honestly feel that my overall grade should be a B. I have learned a tremendous amount in this unit and I will retain that information for a long time.
4. In this next unit I intend on managing my time better and also focusing more on the requirements for A level work and striving for that grade!

Unit

1. The most engaging portion of this unit for me was the section on cancer, I learned so much about cancer types, diagnosis and treatments.
2. I felt most distanced during the section on DNA and RNA relationships and functions. I will be reading over those sections again hopefully to achieve a better understanding!
3. I found it affirming to be able to look at other students blogs in order to ensure that I was on the right path.
4. I honestly can't think of anything puzzling that anyone else did.
5. The most surprising thing for me was the Pro-organic stance the authors of the book seem to have. I choose to eat mostly organic foods, non GM fruits and vegetables and as little preservatives as I can and it is nice to study a book in which the authors seem to have the same opinion.
