It’s hard to believe we only have a month left of this program! I finally feel like I know exactly what I need to accomplish in order to meet all of the requirements. I just have 3 main things to complete: the poster presentation, the website and the executive summary. There are all huge tasks that I have only gotten a small start on. Today I have been struggling through what to include on my poster and in my executive summary. I had a bit of a difficult time because I changed my question part way through the program, and a lot of my research paper is relevant to my new question, but not the entirety of it. It is also a challenge to be concise in a way that meets the expectations of the summary. I have a lot to say about my project, but I am trying to save those words for various locations within my capstone website if they are not appropriate for the summary. I struggled with the wording of the summary as well, since I believe it is supposed to be formatted/ phrased academically, in the same way our research paper was while the website is more of a general teacher audience and can sound a little more conversational. In all honesty I am looking forward to seeing what my peers have done and getting feedback from them and my professor of what I have done so far, because I’m feeling a little bit lost and like what I have done so far may or may not be correct!

I feel excited about how close we are as well but our last two projects are proving to be a challenge for me. The poster and the capstone website are making me cut out information and reword it and I am trying to keep up with the different ways we are supposed to deliver our information as well. I just hope I get it down correctly so I don't have to change it more than once. I'm looking forward to seeing your video and all our posters.

I feel the same way... hoping I am completing the assignments correctly. I am trying hard to reword my thoughts from research and having a hard time. Combining it with my new ideas is the hardest part!

The three major assignments are time consuming and at times repetitive. I find myself changing the wording around so it does not sound the same all around. I am looking forward to the completion of the program and the poster presentation!
