on your new blog, create a new post called ‘01. Enterprise Skills’ and write about how you
have experience of using the aforementioned Enterprise Skills prior to this unit – either at
Sixth Form, or outside e.g., at a part time job. You can create a table if it makes it easier.
Using initiative Using initiative is doing things without being told,
in shot terms you act instead of reacting to work.
An example of me using initiative is taking on
extra work with my subjects such as extra reading
or preparing for the lesson ahead.
Working independently Working independently is being able to complete
assigned tasks on your own. For example,
planning for the unit 3 Digital Media exam unit.
Applying self-motivation to perform
tasks
Self-motivation is the ability to drive oneself to
take initiative and action to pursue goals and
complete tasks. An example of this is staring on
assignments and getting them done on time.
Self-evaluating ability to meet
demands
Self-evaluation is to evaluate oneself or one’s
actions or performance. An example of this is
having a clear understanding of what I am
expected to do during my lessons.
Working with others, delegating,
compromising
In Health & Social Care we tend to work in groups
and have class discussions and having to present
it in front of the class. When compromising we
take it in turns to speak when presenting to the
class. Another example of working with others is
when it came to filming in unit 10 and 20.
Applying communication,
interpersonal, written communication
skills
Communication skills is the ability to convey or
share ideas and feelings effectively. This is shown
when I actively listen during my lessons and get
on with the work that has been set.

2. Problem solving Problem solving is the process of finding solutions
to difficult or complex issues. An example of this is
correcting a mistake I have made in my work
whether it was made by me or someone else.
