A specific skill that I have acquired in high school that I have used throughout my externship is organization and knowing what to prioritize and not. I learned that skill through the projects that I have done throughout high school, specifically the more longer projects. There have been times in our projects that there are times where the teachers isn't always available to guide and keep us on task, so in order to stay productive and on track, this is what I had to gain.
This externship has been similar to past projects because it is a project that has lasted a good amount of time, like past ones, but also has been planned out thoroughly beforehand. Before doing projects, that is what typically happens and doesn't start without it. This project has been different from any other because it is much more independent than anything I've done in the past. The teacher guidance is very minimal for what we are trying to accomplish and it is up to us to keep ourselves in check and on task. |
