Blog 27: Self-Reflection


(1) Positive Statement

What are you most proud of in your 2-Hour Presentation and/or your senior project? Why?

I most proud of pulling off the plan I put together in full with the exception of not having the time to show a few videos.  I also like how interactive the presentation was.   


(2) Questions to Consider

a.     What assessment would you give yourself on your 2-Hour Presentation (self-assessment)? Why?

AE            P +           AP            CR            NC

I met the requirements on the contract presenting for 30 minutes, running a few activities, and decorating my room.

b.     What assessment would you give yourself on your overall senior project (self-assessment)? Why?

AE             P            AP            CR            NC

I stood out in a number of ways.  For example, I researched more than expected, did additional formal and informal interviews, worked over 110 hours at El Monte Hospital and took two college courses related to preparing me for a future in my project. I also did well on the exit interview and the components like the science fair.

(3) What worked for you in your senior project?
  • 2-hour
  • Science Fair
  • Volunteering at a hospital
  • Finding a skin cancer textbook
  • Interviews with a variety of people
  • Knocking two birds with one stone by having similar research for Model Assembly and my senior project
(4) What didn’t work for you in your senior project?
  • I didn't have an opportunity to work at a place like the City of Hope or Children's Cancer Hospital in Los Angeles
  • Three-Column
  • Towers

(5) Finding Value

How has the senior project been helpful to you in your future endeavors?   Be specific and use examples. 

I think it gave me more confidence that I can be more competitive at the next level. I also have a real interest in helping patients with cancer in the future.
