Blog 23: Senior Project Reflection

(1) Positive Statement

What are you most proud of in your block presentation and/or your senior project? Why?

I am very glad that my lecture content time was well over the thirty minute mark. I was very worried I wouldn't make time. I am also proud that my viewers asked lots of questions even after I met the time limit. The fact that they asked lots of questions after I met the time requirement made me feel like they were genuinely interested in my topic. I am also very happy that the audience was really engaged during the activity.

(3) What worked for you in your senior project?

I felt my activity worked very well because it dressed my best answer and the students were very interested and eager to complete the activity.

(4) (What didn't work) If you had a time machine, what would you have done differently to improve your senior project if you could go back in time?

If I had a time machine, I would go back and make sure all the technology was working properly. I had a minor technical difficulty, but I was still able to perform my activity and achieve my intended results. I also did not talk about my mentorship as much as I would have liked to. I feel I sort of rushed over that. I also felt that I spoke very quickly and should've slowed down a bit, but I am over all very happy with my presentation.

(5) Finding Value

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

This project has made me aware of all the crucial steps required in making music available for leisure. It also has made me more interested in music and becoming a entrepreneur in music. However, I feel the best part of this project is working with a mentor. My mentor has taught me a lot of useful information as well as organized performances for myself and motivated me to make my musical ideas become reality. This project overall has made me want to pursue a career in music.
