More specifically, using my research, I will be able to help educate K-8 students on water ecology! It can be said that last semester I learned how to conduct different types of research such as interviews. I will be continuing that learning by meeting with both educators and organizations to cultivate lesson plans for K-8 students. Midterm Introduction Throughout the semester, there are many things that I have achieved! With that being said, I was able to plan and conduct interviews for my group’s upcoming water fair. I learned how to properly cultivate interview questions to investigate the community’s involvement in regards to the lack of education k-8 students have. Ultimately, I plan to share the interview results with the rest of my team in preparation for the water fair. Final Introduction Ultimately, I was able to achieve many things that I set out to achieve this semester. With that being said, I was able to help cultivate a water fair using engaging strategies! This semester I learned the imporatance of creating a plan for all projects. This one of the main strategies that kept me organized throughout the year. Ultimately, I enjoyed carrying out a fair that helped students learn about postive water sustainability practices. Course Goals Choose five goals from the CODES Student Learning Outcomes that you\u2019d like to work toward. Choose goals that are relevant to the scope of this course, select artifacts\/examples based on activities assigned for this course, and explain characteristics in a way that illustrates how your artifacts\/examples demonstrate your progress toward the goal. Skills for Lifelong Learning (20%)Based on b. and c., I will pursue educational experiences beyond the classroom while reviewing prior knowledge What will you do to learn the content\/ develop the skill? What examples will you add to the portfolio to demonstrate your learning? What characteristics of the chosen examples demonstrate you have met your goal? Applying knowldge from material found in\/outside of class Identfying the perspective of stakeholders involved with the research Reflections– Generate organized document of recorded thoughts during site visits and group meetings Presentations-Presenting our findings by demonstrating different perspectives Notes-Illustrates the thinking behind our objectives and goals for research (can be attained during site visits\/ discussions) Provide in-depth evaluations and evidence that demonstrate a critcial understanding of material Incorporate learning when working with outside intities such as JJK and Heartlands In Reflection #2, I was able to create an agenda that helped guide me through the interview process. This was proven to be effective because I was able to reach my target audince and gain the perspectives of first-hand stakeholders in the community. Here, I have provided a excepert explaining my process for thinkning and organization. It can be said that creating a agenda before certain tasks are essential for producing organized and detailed work. Here is my Content Analysis Outline which was critical when working to cultivate a informational. Here was a guideline that dmeonstrated some key components. I was able to incorporate this to my work reagarding the I held interviews with the National Great River Center to help find engaging water strategies. The third piece of evidence demonstrates my ability to be able to identify different stakeholders such as the National Great River Center. Here I created a overview of the work that I conducted throught the semester. Here you can see that I have anaylzed the impact that our project has while being able to highlight local organizations in our community that are encouraging positive water practices. Reflection 2 In Relection 2, I spoke brefiely on the topic of crictical thinking and how that made an impact on the questions I decided to ask staff at the National Great River Center. I remember revising the order and language of my question to get answers that will will help shape my future objectives. Intercultural Knowledge and Competence (30%)Based on b. and c. I will illustrate Intercultural Knowledge and Competence through investigating cultural factors and elements What will you do to learn the content\/ develop the skill? What examples will you add to the portfolio to demonstrate your learning? What characteristics of the chosen examples demonstrate you have met your goal? Demonstrate a compelex understanding of underepresentated groups Construct solutions to community problems through vetted research Reflections-Illustrate complex understanding community problems and underrepresented groups Presentations– Presentation shows correlations to problems research Notes-Demonstrating thinking on organized set of documents Provide strong evidence that demonstrates socio-economic differences Disect and evaluate potential factors and stakeholders invovled with research My implementation plan for my reearch demonstrates a complex thinking and while showing an organized set of documents. Here i’m identifying the problem, context and method which ensures a sucessful interview. The second piece of evidence listed here are my revised edits to my interview questions. I found that these edits helped touch on every topic specifically and made them clear. Here is an uncoded excerpt of my second interview that covered an organization role reagrding the question. I was able to gain insights as far as their involvement with water school, project wet, teacher workshops, and their annual water festival. Here is the Thematic Analysis that I was able to create using the interviews that I conducted. It demonstrates my ability to construct a complex understanding by identifying common themes throughout the interview with the usage of codes. In Refelction 3, I was able to showcase my efforts to learn about how teachers incorporate water conservation into their curriculum. I learned that local organization provide school districts with material and trainings. Here is the informational Poster I was able to create with the information given at the interview with the National Great River Center. This poster was created in inspiration to engage the public with ways to benefit themselves and the community. Goal 3 Ethical Reasoning (20%) Based on 3. A. and B. I will successfully analyze the impact of ones\u2019 core belief while recognizes the connections among them. What will you do to learn the content\/ develop the skill?
