**During the past few weeks:** I have learnt about cyberbullying, the consequences and laws against cyberbullying, ways to protect yourself and how to be safe on the internet. I most enjoyed the Humanities class on working within a group, getting a set task and doing a presentation together to the class about the topic we all studied. My attitude has been good, I have attempted to complete all the set task given. My behaviour has been good, I have behaved well in class and listened to the teacher whilst he was speaking to the class.My interim report in the subject wilI indicate that I have met the requirements of the past few weeks and behave well in class.The hardest task I have had to complete was presenting to the class about the laws and punishments of cyberbullying.My workbook is organised and has no loose sheets in it, and tasks completed.Group work is easier than doing it alone and you need to complete your task given or the whole group will fail.My greatest strength is being able to complete set tasks.The two areas of my learning that I want to focus on improving are: 1. Presenting in front of the class.2. Completing set tasks.I am happy with my work efforts and my behaviour.The class wiki offers me the chance to join the Hall of Fame.The Hall of Fame is a group of people who have completed really good things and who are behaved well.

In terms of bring books and pens to class I am pretty decent. I may not always pay attention and have a good attitude in class. I don't put in a lot of effort into my classwork because I'm quite a lazy person. I may not understand some aspects at time, but I understand the majority of work. I finish more than half of the work on time, but there have been some work that I have not finished and/or handed in late. My work isn't the best that I can do. Doing more homework.
 * Preparedness for Learning (books, pens, attendance, punctuality, attitude, engagement in lessons)
 * Effort
 * Level of Understanding
 * Homework and Meeting Deadlines (including unfinished, late or tasks not attempted)
 * Quality of Work Produce
 * Areas for Improvement (outline two and the strategies you might use to improve)



1. Write a paragraph which provides an overview of your Semester 1 reports. In my reports it is shown that I am average in the majority in my subjects. I passed all the subjects with a satisfactory mark. It was noticed that many teachers said I was quite a lazy person and needed to fix that up to improve in my education.

2. Write a paragraph explaining how you feel about your report and the comments made by your teachers. I believe that my report that was pretty much true as I am quite a lazy person. My attitude towards my education isn’t as it should be and I should improve to benefit my own learning and wellbeing. Also it was stated I should put more effort into my work.

3. List the three main strengths evident in your Semester 1 reports (mentioned in two or more subject reports). Majority of my work has been handed it for subjects and understand an adequate amount of the work being done.

4. Outline any areas of weakness which have been mentioned and explain how you intend to address these areas in Semester 2. My laziness is quite a big problem with my education; I will try stopping this by attempting to do all my set tasks. Also I have been told that I do not put the best of my ability into all of my work and that affects my grades greatly. I will attempt to fix this by putting my best effort into it by being my time efficient.

5. Open your sealed envelope which contains the three goals you set yourself for Semester 1 in Humanities. Describe how successful you were at achieving each of these goals. (If you were unsuccessful or partially unsuccessful in achieving any goal, explain what steps you need to take in Semester 2) Of the three goals that I wrote down I only really achieved one. My other goals were to put my best effort into my work and complete them on due date and the last goal was to be more serious with my education and stop being lazy. I wasn’t successful with them but in an attempt to complete all my work I will try to be more time efficient and stop being lazy.

6. (Think carefully before you complete this task) Write a paragraph outlining the skills and attributes you believe you have demonstrated or possess which will enable you to succeed in VCE studies next year. I don’t have much good attributes or skills that will help with my learning into VCE subjects, but the only one I can really think of is that if I am committed into doing a task, I can do it quite fast.

7. Set yourself three goals for Semester 2 in Humanities AND explain how you intend to go about achieving each of these goals. Also outline how you will be able to measure / determine the degree to which you have been successful in achieving these goals.
