1)
Tell us about a time this past semester that you failed -- whether in this
class, or outside of this class. Don't spare any details! It'd be even better
if there was something you tried several times this semester, and failed each
time.
Earlier in this semester, I was
unable to finish some assignments for this course, resulting in zeros. The
thing is, I had finished one of them in time but failed to submit a link. For
the other one, I let the due date pass before I could submit the assignment.
2)
Tell us what you learned from it.
I learned to prioritize these
assignments and not waiting until the very last minute to complete these
assignments.
3)
Reflect, in general, on what you think about failure. Failure is hard, isn't
it? It's embarrassing, sure, but it also means that we have to change something
about ourselves. Talk about how you handle failure (emotionally, behaviorally).
Finally, talk about how this class has changed your perspective on failure --
are you more likely to take a risk now than you were just a few months ago?
I believe failure is a natural
experience that everyone encounters. The way that I handle it is by reflecting
on the main reason why I wasn’t able to successfully complete a task. Then, I
make a plan on how to prevent myself from undergoing that mistake again.
Hey Nathan!
ReplyDeleteIn general, I believe you were very straight forward with the assignment. Your answers in complete form which is rare with these posts. I had a similar experience with the “cupcake” assignments. Since normally, assignments are usually due at 11:59pm and in the beginning of the course it threw me off how he made it due at 12pm.
Hey Nathan! I think you did a great job with the assignment. I liked how you integrated a part of this course and something that we all can relate too within this assignment. although it was a rather smaller failure, I still think there is something to take out of it and apply to your other courses that you take now and going forward. Taking a step back and finding what mistake you made so that you don't make the same one again is how you can grow to be wiser.
