2.  (Need to know) What questions do you have that haven't been answered about the senior project? This can be about the senior project in general, any components or about a presentation topic you saw or what they said.  
Answer
I have only 3 questions that I have not had answered yet so here they are:

-What happens if we don't make time like we have 1 hour and 30 min., does this mean we must represent?

-Are we allowed to use videos in the senior presentation, like narrate it while it plays?

-What are the limitations as to what the topic can be and what we can put in the 2 hour presentation?



3. What has the most important part of the senior project based on what you are seeing in the 2-hour presentations?
Answer
- Aside the answers to the Essential question created, the most important part to senior presentations is basically knowing your information and presenting it with evidence. Like in Lauren's homelessness presentation, she was very professional and her subjects she covered where covered by stories and evidence, although her activities were not the best, she did a magnificent job. Although the activities help aid the presentation, but they don't make the presentation, it seems that you are scored time for giving new information rather than relapsing what they already said. I think what you have to do is know your stuff and then spice it up with activities and anything else to top it off.


4. What topic are you considering doing and why?
Answer
(NOTE i have listed 2 but Im most likely going to narrow it down to Engineering, and im using OBGYN as my back up plan)

- Im planning on doing Electrical (also electronic) Engineering because I've always been that kid that loves to mess around with wires and electricity, I like to know how and why things work with currents, I already spend time with family and a few people that have professional businesses in this profession. When I was a kid I'd always be destroying electronics that were broken pulling out the copper and other metals and I'd make my own little contraptions, once i made my door handle shock people that tried to enter my room by hooking copper wiring with a fuze box and 12 volt battery, and it worked, I have countless stories of stuff I've done.

- Im not sure if we are allowed to do two topics but if i could I'd also like to do OBGYN and nurse midwifery, my mom is in this profession and this also festinates me. I've worked restocking the rooms and have seen countless times of what it is like to work there.
