Preparing For My Final Presentation
Since I'm done researching for my senior project, I decided to make my April blogpost on how I'm preparing myself for my final presentation. I enjoyed researching on my topic, Pediatrics, because it's the career I want to be pursue. At first I didn't know I was going to be doing my essential question on autism. The reason why I decided to go into autism was because of the link people are saying there is between vaccines and the disorder. Researching was awesome because I learned things I didn't know anything about. For example, different vaccines, what some vaccines hold, and the different kinds of PDD's. Autism is a great topic to research and I enjoyed it so much. I could say that I'm ready for my final presentation. I feel organized and excited. I've already talked with my mentor, Dr. Chen, about how I'm going to do it and I'm going to do a mini presentation with my elective teacher and to her class a week before my actual presentation. I really hope it goes as planned. :-)

Blog 19: Independent Component 2
I, Leslie Luna, affirm that I completed my Independent Component which represents 42 hours of work.
The book that helped me a lot with my Independent Component 2 was "Asperger's from the Inside Out" by Michael John Carley. Mrs. Yelverton recommended me that book. The reason why he helped me a lot with my Independent Component was because this book contained so many stories from a person who has Asperger's. John talks about how he was diagnosed and what it was like to be treated and/or surrounded by others.
What I completed with the 42 hours that I did for my Independent Component was shadow my mentor, Dr. Chen. I would shadow her every now and then and I would collect questions from that day then have mini interviews with her so that she could answer all the questions that I have. I will be turning in those question and answers this Friday to my advisory house teacher. I would also help the medical assistants with their medical lots and I would also check patient's vitals.
My work demonstrates the 42 hours that I completed because I will be turning in questions that were answered by my mentor, Dr. Chen. Like I said before, I collected those questions by shadowing my mentor.
Independent Component 2 helped me with my essential question in so many ways. The reason for that is because some of the questions that I had for my mentor were questions that would answer my essential question. My mentor answered every question with so much detail that it helped me with the answers to my essential question.
