The first thing we did when we created the studio is getting to know each other and dividing roles, to do this properly we wrote down our own strengths and weaknesses. This makes it easier to choose who gets what role. Underneath here are my strengths and weaknesses:

weaknesses

• I can’t explain my ideas well so that the other person gets what I’m thinking about.
• I’m not a big fan of coding
• Planning and time management is sometimes hard for me.

strengths

• I think out of the box
• I can come up with ideas that are original
• I like doing research and document it clear
• I like bringing a fun atmosphere

For this semester I’m writing down some more core values that I’ll be working on; these are mainly focused on my growth as an ICT Media student.

• Keep Learning– I want to keep learning and gain more information and experience in the world of ICT


• Use What I Know – I want to use the skills I’ve learned so far to help people close to me or need my help.


• Show Up Well – I want to work on presenting myself in a more professional way, both in the quality of my work and how I interact with others in a work or client-like setting.


• Go With the Flow – I want to stay flexible when things don’t go as planned, and be open to new tools, methods, or apps that I’m not.

Keep Learning: I’ve always been someone who wants to understand how things work especially when it comes to technology and media. Whether it's figuring out a new app, solving a tech issue, or exploring a creative tool, I enjoy the process of learning.

Use What I Know: I don’t just want to learn skills for school, I want to actually use them. Whether it's helping a friend with their computer, editing a video for someone, or designing something small for fun, I feel like the things I’ve picked up should be useful. My family and especially my girlfriends that said that I’m a huge help in their “tech part of life” for example making the website for my girlfriends Dad.

Show Up Well: This semester, I’m trying to be more intentional about how I present myself both in how my work looks and how I communicate with others. Some of my classmates have mentioned that I always give off a calm and respectful vibe, which makes it easy to work with me.

Go With the Flow: Things don’t always go as planned whether it's a group project or learning new things. I’ve learned to adjust quickly and look for solutions rather than getting stuck. Asking a teacher or a fellow student is also part of that.
