Capstone 3

The Capstone project was long and we did lots of research. It was interesting interviewing people and I learned a lot about my topic. As a final project I had to use Screencastify and talk about my slideshow. Well, while it was running it took lots of tries to get it right. Then we put it into a YouTube video and made all of them one big video.

This unit was not very hard. The hardest part is writing blog posts. I liked that we would not have to spend the whole day on it and that we could do other things after working. 

I liked not having school also because I could take breaks when I wanted to and I did not have to do all the work at the same time.

I think that my interview was a big success and went really well. The first two questions I felt like I was in a script but then it turned into a conversation and it was interesting to talk to him. I interviewed Brett Hauser the CEO of the company Cision It was cool because I learned about his personal life and his job and company. The interview helped a lot because I learned a lot about my topic for example I learned that Cision is trying to spread awareness about electric cars. And now that we are writing scripts it’s helping me when I’m making the slides. The interview was very cool and fun. And it turns out that who I interviewed lived next to us in the city. And it was fun to talk to him because we ended up just having a conversation. I chose him to interview because he is the CEO and because we already new him.

In class, we are doing a project called Capstone. For Capstone we find a topic that interests us then we do research on the topic. For the first week, we chose a topic and started to research our questions. My question was what will cars be powered by in the future.  My topic is cars of the future. I made up five questions then researched and answered them. This is a fun project because we get to research a topic interesting to us.

For example, my topic is “cars of the future” and I’m very interested in that topic. Now I get to do research on a topic I’m interested in learning about. To help us organize your research we have a slideshow where we wrote down our sub-questions and answers to them.
