Cross Curricular Competencies in the NLC

1.What are the cross curricular competencies and why are they important
The Cross Curricular Competencies are...

• Cummunication
• Critical Thinking
• Creativity
• Personal Responsibility
• Social Responsibility

I think all of these are very important things and something that everybody uses on a daily basis. But, I think Critical thinking is a really big one because lots of the time people will be doing something, and then a problem occurs, and nobody knows hoe to turn a problem into an idea. Most people would just keep it a problem, and then somehow they let it affect their original idea. Which I don't think should ever be the case. I think problems should turn into new ideas, to make your original idea better.

2.Your goals for your learning throughout high school (and how it will be shown through your blog)
Honestly, I don't really set goals. I think that if you're setting goals then your missing out on other things that you aren't even aware about. I like to just let stuff happen. I feel that, that is how people grow as a person, is when they see and expierence new things. I thinkt that when you expierence new things it helps you realize what you like, or don't like.

3.Anything else you want to say about the purpose of your blog
Not really. This blog is so that other people can see the kind of stuff I do here in The Northern Learning Centre.
