Capstone is a project that consists of research and questions. There were challenges and exciting things during this project, it was also an opportunity to learn lots about a topic you have rather interest in.

The challenges during this project were finding websites, because some repeated information and it was hard to find exclusive information other websites didn’t repeat. It was also a challenge to come up with a main inquiry question, both/most of the challenges occurred during the beginning of the project, supposing the question was either too broad, too narrow or doesn’t have the best wording. One of the other worries was if there was absolutely no information that matches your main inquiry question, so you would have to re-do it. The reason I picked a movie is because I would be nervous to stand up, memorize the script, then present it in front of parents and kids. The exciting part was getting an interview. It might have been stressful with the time limit but it was fun to contact a professional and get information that is specially qualified by professionals. 

I chose Astronomy because I have interest in this topic, I had many questions and have studied this topic in the past. Because I studied this in the past, I would have a head start on the information and research. I had broad and narrow questions which I changed in the process of Capstone researching and sub questions. The challenges when I chose this is because choosing between many topics I had lots of interest in was hard, I had to choose between researching an interesting type of music and astronomy, because I had more information for a head start on astronomy, I chose it.

Overall, Capstone is a fun and interesting project.
