PBL choice evaluation

1. Discuss whether you are pleased you chose your topic or whether you wished that you had picked another topic

In my opinion I think I would've picked another topic because the topic that I picked was Drugs and Alcohol (smoking in cars with children) and there's not much you could really do to improve the lives of others so it was a pretty hard topic to do but we did it.

2. Explain how you felt about working in your group

Working in my group was pretty good. We had fun but then sometimes we had to get serious. Even though some of us were helping other groups instead of helping with our presentation we still got everything done on time.

3. Describe what you thought about doing PBL

I thought it was alright I guess,I did get pretty bored doing the PBL and didn't really want to do it at all cause i´m not that creative person. I don´t like presenting in front of people or anything but I got over it and i´m glad that it´s all over and done with.

4. Explain what you did well

What we did well was we all co-operated all together. We did our different parts to get this video finished. We got all the work done to do our presentation which is the main thing.

PBL evaluation

1. Explain what your group did for your PBL, what was and was not successful, and why

My group did Drugs and Alcohol. We did it about smoking in cars with children. First off we tried getting some information about how many children suffer from parents smoking in the cars. We tried smoke free and other ones. It wasn't very successful because none of them really helped us with the information that we needed. But then we did a video about our topic and it only took one period,everyone was contributed and doing their own part. It was successful because everyone was laughing at our video that we made.

2. Explain whether your group achieved your goals and why or why not

I sort of think we did because I think/hope people will soon realise how much smoking in cars with children can actually suffer them and how much it can suffer yourself as well.

3. Describe and explain the impact your PBL had on enriching or improving the lives of others

Well we made a facebook page where people can like and share us. We put our video up on there and said how much it can harm your children and hopefully people will actually realise how it is affecting your children but not only them yourself as well. I hope we have improved the lives of others by making a facebook page but that's not really enough. I hope that some parents will actually/try to quit smoking for them but for their children as well.

4. Explain what you would do differently next time and why

I'm not really sure on what to do for next time but I would probably go into a different topic because that one was pretty hard and difficult to work out and what you should do.
