Blog 8: Independent Component 1 Proposal



As usual, include a visual, and copy #1-4 with your answers in your own blog entry.

 What is it?  Independent Component 1 is an opportunity for you to add a dimension of creativity and/or an additional outlet for research.  The goal of the component is for you to explore your topic in more depth with this component.  On February 6, 2015, you will be turning in the following to your blog to prove completion of this component:

  • Section documenting hours for Independent Component 1 in Senior Project Hours link (this should be documented regularly and can be spot checked throughout the year).
  • Evidence of the 30 hours of work (e.g. transcript, essays, tests, art work, photographs) as digital artifacts.
  • Blog reflecting on the work completed

To get your idea approved now, please answer the following questions:
1.  Describe in detail what you plan to do for your 30 hours.
2.  Discuss how or what you will do to meet the expectation of showing 30 hours of evidence.
3.  Explain how what you will be doing will help you explore your topic in more depth.
4.  Update your Senior Project Hours log.

To be approved, your proposal should be supported with details and examples for the senior team to understand what you plan to do.   

1.  Describe in detail what you plan to do for your 30 hours.
          For the thirty hours that need to be completed I intend to spend time gathering information on every single vaccine necessary for children and adolescents. This information will be recorded and presented on a presentation board for all patients to see. The information included on the board will be the name of the vaccine, it's purpose, when it's suppose to be received, and when it can be received if missed. The information will coincide with a schedule for every vaccine and an image for each vaccine.

2.  Discuss how or what you will do to meet the expectation of showing 30 hours of evidence.
            As I have stated previously, I will creating somewhat of a presentation board with every single vaccine and in its information in pediatrics. The board will have the vaccine, its purpose, the time period of when it should be received, and when it should be received if missing the initial time frame. I will document my progress through photos and the Senior Project Hours log.

3.  Explain how what you will be doing will help you explore your topic in more depth.
           The topic for my senior project is pediatrics. From what I've learned so far during my time with my mentor is there is a lot of memorization. One of the main pieces of material to memorize for any forms of medicine are the multiple vaccinations required for each and every patient. Even then, it's difficult to remember every single vaccine and its information. Therefore this informative board will provide information on every single vaccine for pediatric patients. Not only will I learn about these vaccines, but the board will be there as somewhat of a reference sheet for the patients, their parents, and even the medical staff.

4.  Update your Senior Project Hours log.
          It is possible to locate my Senior Project Hours log on my blog under the Links section of the blog.
