, economName of Assignment: The Power of Compound Interest Subject: Junior Seminar Facilitator/Teacher: Ms. Kepler
We read Oedipus Rex then discussed it over the course of a week. The 21st Century Skill I think this assignment addresses is financial, economic, and business literacy because it uses my financial skills to understand interest and how it works. I am most proud of the grade I got on this assignment. I improved my financial, economic, and business literacy skills with this project by learning how to calculate compound interest. The most difficult part of this task was trying to decipher the questions meaning because it was worded in a way I had not encountered before. If I could start this project over, I would do the extra credit assignment at the end for more practice. This relates to what I've learned in the past by using my calculating skills built up over math classes and logic to understand what the question is asking me. I can use this in the future when I need a loan for an apartment, car, or house.
