Intramuscular and Subcutaneous Injections
During my week of thanksgiving vacation I volunteered at the pediatric clinic that I do my mentorship at. I talked with my mentor, Dr. Chen. She was explaining to me the different types of ways you have to inject a vaccine to a patient. If you are giving a subcutaneous injection, you will inject directly into the fatty tissue; meaning under the skin and overlying the muscle. If you are giving an intramuscular injection, you will inject directly into the deltoid muscle; meaning below the shoulder on the upper arm. I found these two type of ways very interesting because I knew of no such thing.

Blog 11: EQ
1. I reviewed the rule of three for writing an essential question.
2. What is the most important factor in healthy weight loss?
In my opinion, this essential question meets the rule of three criteria. This question isn't a yes or no question and it's easy to have three different kinds of answers for it. This question could also be broken down into sections. First, the person could talk about what it takes to be considered as eating healthy. Then they can talk about what is weight loss and after, they can talk about the several answers for this question.
What is most important to securing a conviction in a criminal investigation?
In my opinion, this essential question meets the rule of three criteria. This question is an open minded question and gets a person to wonder what could be the right answer to this question. There could be several answers to this question, which is why I agree that it fits under the rule of three. The question doesn't send out any confusion, at least it doesn't to me. It's well written and well understanding.
What is most important in creating a hairstyle that best satisfies a customer?
In my opinion, this essential question meets the rule of three criteria. This is question is very broad and doesn't confuse me at all. I know from the beginning of reading this question that they're trying to ask or answer what is important their customers. I believe this question is well written. It could also be written down into sections to when the person presents on this topic.
How can an anesthesiologist best treat chronic pain?
In my opinion, this essential question meets the rule of three criteria. This question could really make a presentation entertaining because first the person could talk about what an anesthesiologist is. Then the person presenting could have several answers to this question because it's quite broad and when a question is broad, it's easier to answer. This question would be perfect to have three answers then a best answer at the end.
3. After assessing these four essential questions, I still believe that my EQ meets the criteria as "the rule of three." My essential question, "What is the link between vaccines and autism in children?" could be broken down easily into three different sections. The first section would be on pediatrics. The second section of this EQ would be autism. The third section would be the links, this section would include my three answers and my final best answer. My question could and does have several answers to it. It's not a yes or no question and it is very broad which i state again, is a good thing. I believe my essential question meets the rule of three.

Blog 9: Lesson 1 Reflection
1. What I'm most proud of in my lesson 1 presentation was that I didn't rely on any technology throughout presenting. I went up there and presented everything I knew and discovered because of the research checks we have a week. I felt like I talked about everything I could under the 10 minutes we had. My favorite part of my presentation was my hook activity because I'm so amused by this little girl name Iris Grace. I'm amused of the art she can paint for the age she has. I feel like I did really good on presenting my topic and essential question.
2. The assessment I would give myself would be a solid P. The reason why I think so is because I did everything that was required. My stores and events was backed up with references from my research. I also broke down my essential questions into three different parts (autism, vaccines and links.) I had great stories that I told throughout my presentation. I also met the time requirement. I wouldn't give myself an AE because I don't believe I went above and beyond and the reason for that was because I only did what was required for the P requirement.
3. What worked for me in my lesson 1 presentation was how I broke down my essential question. I feel like the way I broke it down helped me a lot with reaching my time minimum. My essential question is "What is the link between vaccines and autism in children?" I broke it down by first talking about my topic, pediatrics, then I talked about autism then vaccines and then to my conclusion, the links; which is not true because there are no links between vaccines and autism whatsoever. What I think also worked was the way my presentation flowed. I feel like I said everything I needed to say for the class to understand my topic, my essential question and my answers.
4. I can't really say nothing "didn't work" because I met my time and did not go over 10 minutes. I know that when I present I tend to talk really fast; that's one thing I would like to change. Now that I feel more confident talking about my topic to the class I feel more prepared for lesson 2 presentation. The reason why I talk too fast is because I feel anxiety and want to talk about my topic all at once but I know now that all I need to do is slow down and feel calm; and if I keep telling myself that then I'll do better for the next time.
