Still Working

Hello Everyone,



I realize it has been a while since my last post, so I'm just going to give you a brief update. I have finished my webliography, and I have a good idea of what I need to get done. Hopefully on Thursday I am going to meet with Mr. Duty to give me the information that I need technology wise.
I have been taking notes to answer my foundation questions, which is a lot harder than I expected it would be, I know their due this Friday but I'm worried I will not complete everything in time. I have written down my questions for different interviews as well. I am going to interview Ms. Wilds, Mr. Duty, Matt from CASE, and Amy, a Pitt student who studied abroad in Costa Rica. DeAnna informed me of Amy and I'm really glad she did because it would be someone from the outside looking in, and her experience. A lot of my notes have to be answered in the interview, but I don't really know how I'm doing my interviews yet, so I'm just going to have to put them on hold.

Update!

Hello Everyone,

It's been a while since I have blogged so now I figure I need to update to where I have been.

I finally got to talk to both Mr. Oliver and Ms. Wilds about the project and got a better grasp on what I'm doing. Mr. Oliver suggested that I had other students do the filming, and I be more of a director, so I'm going to soon announce my project to the rest of the class. I still want to do at least a little filming anyways though. Besides the film, I'm going to create a website that informs students, parents, and sponsors about the trip. Then, hopefully if I have enough time, I'm going to try to improve the curriculum for future years.

Now that I finally feel better about that, I keep getting overwhelmed with work in this class that i feel isn't useful to my topic. I would rather just jump in and see what I need than do all of this background information on things that can't really be researched. I'm just becoming frustrated because everything requires the internet too, and I don't have that at home, and I run out of time in class. Hopefully everything works out.
