Thinking and personal skills
ACLC has greatly increased my thinking and personal skills. As senior about to graduate I am able to think about my actions before I act and I am also able to work with people with all different ideas. When I transferred to ACLC as a 7th grade I was not able to think about my actions and I could only work with certain people. Without ACLC I would have not been able to raise money for child soldiers in 3rd world countries a project which made me work with many people with different ideals.ACLC has taught me that there other people in this world with different perspectives and I should respect everyones out look on the world. There are many people on this planet with all different lifestyles and that to truly understand that "culture" you must live in there circumstances. As a 7th grader I would never have dreamed about these ideas but now as an older learner I am able to see things that I would have never thought of without ACLC. Staying at ACLC is one of the greatest
decisions of my life.
Technology
My years have taught me how to become proficient with Microsoft Word and Microsoft PowerPoint etc. These skills I have obtained through my career at ACLC are necessity to become a successful for career in a society that circles around technology. As socity progresses there will be a larger focus on technogly to communicate with the larger community. ACLC has helped me learn how to use technology to my advantage. Learning new softwere programs is second nature to me because when I first came to ACLC that was one of the first things I learned. An example of learning new technology is this site. Everything on this site is written by me and the pictures to the site web layout is done by me. I had no prior knowledge of how to use the softwere but, I was able to learn quickly and I was able to make this site.
Collaborative Ability
ACLC puts a high regard to working in groups. As a senior in ACLC I am able to work in groups effectively regardless of how many people and what there background is. If the people I am working with is in 6th grade or 12th grade I am still able to work though it and finish the objective. This skill is very important now because modern jobs require people to work together to achieve an end goal. When I first came to ACLC I was not able to work in groups effectively I would normaly just do all the work or I would not be able to do any of it. As a older learner I am able to transcend the groups age and or how they work together. I am able to work in a group doing equal amount of work.I still have many things to learn about working a groups but without ACLC I don't believe that I would have a strong understanding of teamwork that I have now.
Personal qualities and work habits
ACLC has helped me improve my work habits. When I first came to ACLC I was not used to having so much freedom which caused me not to do any work but years at ACLC has helped me improve my work ethic which will help me when I enter college.As a 7th grader my work habit would be all over the place some weeks I would work hard and other weeks I would do no work.As I got older my work habits be came more consistant. I still am working on it but for most of the part I do my work before it's due in class.My personal qualities have also changed while at ACLC. As a younger leaner I was really aggressive and did not have a real understanding of people feelings. Now as a senor I have become more mello and I have an understanding that my actions affect the people around me and I should act
accordlying.
