Project-Based Learning Reflection

Class in which you did the project: ​Key Club at the senior center up on cherry creek
Brief project description: ​Sent our overseas military care packages of anything they all asked for
such as wipes, food, toothbrushes, etc.
Your role for the project: ​I was the chairperson the one in charge
What did you do, personally, to contribute to the overall project? Be specific! ​I went out
shopping to get all the necessary items for the care packages, I made sure we were able to send
the care packages out, and I made sure we had people to make the care packages.
What did you learn about yourself in terms of time management, personal responsibility,
problem-solving, collaboration, or other soft skills via this project? ​I learned that I am good at
problem-solving, that I can manage my time well, and I can take responsibility pretty well.
If you had an industry expert or mentor who assisted with this project, what are some things that
you learned from this person? ​I learned how to bring so many people together to help in any way
that they can. For this project, we had some help from the residents who wanted to help and they
sat in stations and they put in specific products in the boxes of the care packages
How has this experience helped prepare you for college or careers beyond high school? ​I am
unsure of what career I want in the future considering that I am really good at so many things
such as art, drama, dance, science, biology, planning events, and videography so this project has
helped realize that I can handle a lot of problems that come from any job in those fields.
