What questions do you have that haven't been answered about the senior project?

1. I've seen some of the teachers during the presentations tell the student that they've made the time. Is there a minimum time for talking?
2. Most of the presentations I saw were fantastic and engaging but some I could tell were rushed. How much time do they have to prepare for this presentation? (Not reasearch, but the presentation)
3. The presenters repeatedly cited their info (books, mentors). Is this necessary during the presentation?

What is the most important part of the senior project based on what you are seeing in the 2-hour presentations?

I believe that your answers of the Essential Question are the most important part of the Senior Project. The Essential Question is important too, but that is a driving-force that guides your answers and focusses the topic. The content of the presentation seemed to be the three answers; most of what they learned was put into them.

What topic are you considering doing and why?

I don't have an absolutely solid idea, but I've been considering Family Medicine. My Mother's Uncle is a family physician, and he's willing to mentor me if I'd like. I believe the most important thing in this world is our body. It's really the only thing that we have from birth to death, so taking care of it is incredibly vital. Learning about it and how to treat illnesses could help me for college!
