Senior Project Reflection

PART I: Two-Hour Presentation
(1) Two-Hour Presentation Student Assessment

AE

I believe I should get an AE because of the amount of work and thought I put into my activities. Also, I have worked very hard during my service learning and interviews to be able to give extra, anecdotal information that an article or book could give me. I believe I made my presentation as compelling as much as I could, and after talking to students in my presentation, all of them have learned a lot from my presentation. Also, I believe my delivery was well done, clear, and elaborate. 

(2) What are you most proud of in your 2 hour presentation and why? I am very proud of my delivery. I was very worried that I would not mention things or start stuttering. I knew my information, I spoke well. And that is what I am most proud of. 


PART II: Overall Senior Project Experience

(3) What do you think you did well on in the project? What could you have done better? Please explain.
I think I did very well on my second independent task. It was a great milestone in my musical career. It was a professional show, and it went off without a hitch. I wish I could have done much better on my science project and my research. My science project because, I think I could have planned it better so I would not run into so many inconveniences. Research, I wish I would have began earlier margin noting articles because I had a lot more than 62. Haha.
(4) What is your EQ and what is the best answer to your EQ?

Living Life on the Road
(5) How has the last month of culminating events (e.g I-Search, Two-Hour, Exit etc) affected your answer to your EQ? Has it changed? Why or why not? 
It changed a lot! At first my best answer was Logistics and Book keeping. But as I started reading through my articles, writing my iSearch, I decided that my answer should change to Living Life on the Road. While re reading my information, I was able to process it again, but in a different way. And Living Life on the Road made more sense to me as a best answer.
(6) What suggestions do you have in order to improve the senior project?
I really enjoyed the creative expression project. If it would be more organized, I believe it could be a very helpful and fun component. The creative expression allowed me to answer my EQ in a way that I couldn't with any other component. 
(7) Overall Senior Project Assessment

AE-
I think so because I have done very well in many components in my senior project. I have dedicated more time to my project than core, grudgingly. I know, that's not how its supposed to go. But I love my project. It means a lot to me and it has given me knew experiences, perspectives, and improved me as a person.
