blog 11: Mentorship 10 hours check

Content:

1.   Where are you doing your mentorship?

I go and observe the working policies in place at Kaiser Permanente . I meet up with my mentor and talk about ways to improve the quality of work given to the patent. I also overseer that we get in the yearbook deadlines on time as well as establish what is going to be covered 
2.   Who is your contact?

Mimi Orth as well as Joan Pleta.
3.   How many total hours have you done (total hours should be reflected in your mentorship log located on the right hand side of your blog like your WB)?   I have done about 40 hours so far.
4.   Summarize the 10 hours of service you did.

Well on one occasion I helped out in the execution of the flu clinic at Kaiser. I helped make sure everyone knew their stations and had the equipment they needed to perform their job. For yearbook it is an ongoing progress of making the final decisions on stuff like what color the cover is or   what we are actually covering.
5.   Email your house teacher the name of your contact and their phone number confirming who they should call to verify it.

blog 10: Senior Project, The Holiday

1.  It is important to consistently work on your senior project, whether it is break or we are in school.  What did you over the break with your senior project?

I acquired the list of schools I am going to contact and their contact information. I wrote some rough drafts of the questions I am going to ask as well. I also did some  more research and  Cornell notes .

2.  What was the most important thing you learned from what you did and why?  What was the source of what you learned?

I believe it is important to stay on task even when no one is pressuring you to do so because then you will have less to do later. It is also very difficult gathering data. I learned to be on task.

3.  If you were going to do a 10 question interview on questions related to answers of your EQ, who would you talk to and why?

I would interview Mimi because I want to learn the importance of keeping on task as well as how to turn in deadlines on time.
