Week 12 (4/28/17)

Well, hello there. It looks like this may be one of the last weekly blog posts that I will make. In one week, I will be giving my presentation and I am really looking forward to sharing my research with those of you able to attend.

However, as an update, I have been editing and practicing my PowerPoint this week with my project advisors. So far, they have liked it and have given me some great ideas for improvement.

Week 11 (4/21/17)

Each week brings us closer to presentations! In order to prepare for them, I have been editing my PowerPoint and my Research Paper. I have also been working on my presentation script so that the presentation will be full of information while being 12 minutes or less. I am planning on practicing my presentation with my Faculty Advisor, Mr. Estes, next week so I am looking forward to see how it goes.

Week 10 (4/14/17)

I'll make this blog entry quick and simple. This week, I have been working on both my research paper and my PowerPoint presentation. So far, they look quite nice, but I still have some more work to do on them in order to finalize them.

In case you are interested in reading my research paper, I will include a version of it on my blog (hopefully) after I finish the edits and making it look nice and pretty. However, you will have to wait to see my PowerPoint until my presentation on May 5th (it will be the first SRP presentation too)! Afterwards, I will also post it on my blog.

Week 9 (4/7/17)

This week, I have been writing my own research paper. You may think writing a 10 page paper may seem boring, but it actually isn't. It is very cool and satisfying to recap all that I have worked on for the past 9 weeks into a paper and seeing all the progress I have made. By the way, I have about 12 pages done so far and I am just finishing up the Results section. I will also be writing a Discussion and Conclusion section to review my findings from other researcher. As a result, the paper still has some time (and pages) to go. I also made some cool graphs from my collected data and they look pretty fancy if I do say so myself.

Anyways, I still have some more work to do on finishing up the paper and I plan to begin designing my PowerPoint presentation next week.
