Senior Project Reflection

Part I : (1) AP because I felt like i was repeating a lot when explaining my answers.
(2) I was most proud of my activities because they were both engaging and people were being respectful in return. I loved watching everybody plant a small flower in the campus pots and they had a great time trying to pick a flower seed out of the many varieties i provided them with.

Part II: (3) I felt like i really connected with the students in the room and that they understood the message i was trying to get around. I think what i could have done better is provide more interesting facts that might have the students go wow because sometimes when i try to get a point across i start getting blank faces, like they don't care.

(4) My eq is : What is the most important reason to start a community garden? My best answer would have to be the community because all my answers revolve back to the community. The reason most community gardens are started is because some organization wants to improve the life in a certain part of a city. All of my answers would not have made sense if it didn't come down to the community in the end.

(5) I felt like i took on an eq that was too much for me to take on and going through i-search and exit interview i felt like i wasn't enjoying the approach of my senior topic. Ogden, however, really helped me realize that my two hour would be more affective if i teach on the reasons on starting a community garden rather that just teaching them how to start one without them knowing why they should start one in the first place.

(6) I felt like every teacher had their own way of grading and i feel that when the students do their presentations it starts to be unfair because some teachers grade differently than the others. I believe that all the teachers should be on the same page.

(7) (AP) Like i said, i took on a topic that required much more work than i had required and in the end everything sort of fell apart. I feel like i deserve an AP because i did additional work when i chose to go on a different approach on my eq so that my 2 hour can be more effective.
