...As apart of our senior project we have dedicated a special part of it to raising money strictly for Special Olympics by hosting events. But another major part of our project is charity links. The idea of charity links to most people is simple but much more thought and effort will go into this part than you would expect. We have previously explained in our essay plans why we are doing the charity links but the information we have lacked to present to you is how we will put this on. we have a commons area in front of our cafeteria and it is common that clubs and events sell products out there so this just what we plan to do. We will set up a table out there and sell links between lunches and even possibly classes. Just like all good fund raising stragies we will advertise that we are selling these charity links for a good cause and explain briefly why and how. We plan to make announcements during lunch and hang posters around the school and even possibly get in contact with the media kids to make an announcement for us. That’s how we plan to raise money by using our charming charity links in school so we can make a reasonable sized donation to Special Olympics through BPA we hope to raise at least $100. Senior Project The point in a senior project is to relate back to your tech area, we have taken BFM for the last 4 years starting at the end of our freshman year and ending in may of our senior year. To understand BFM you have to understand how far we have come...

... January 17, 2014 Senior Project Committee 10200 East Brookside Drive Baton Rouge, LA 70818 Dear sirs: My whole life I’ve had a fascination with learning about cancer. I knew when we were told about senior project, I would I pick something to do with cancer. I have always gone and visited cancer patients. Every time I went to visit, I found myself being interested in learning about the children and how they face cancer. I have been learning ways that help cancer patients cope with their sickness. My community mentor works at several hospitals. He helps children by doing different therapies and also setting them up with therapy sessions. I have spent over twenty hours job shadowing him. For my product, I made a flyer describing the insights they’ve learned and challenges they’ve faced as they’ve lived through cancer. This project is a project we have all dreaded since we heard that we would have to do it. But little did we know it was actually the best project that I have ever done in my life. I am so glad we got to do senior project. It has taught me a lot, and not just about cancer. It has taught me how to care, appreciate the things in life, stay positive, and never give up. Thanks to this project and my senior year, I’ve never appreciated life as much as I do now. I always have felt weird being around a “mentor”, this project has helped me gain confidence in job finding and being around a mentor asking questions. I feel like this project has prepared me for the...

...Senior Project is designed to have you reach out beyond the classroom to explore your own area of study, and to combine skills you have learned at Mineola High School in a significant demonstration of your skills. But beyond the hours you will spend on your project, there is a larger lesson here. At the heart of your Senior Project experience lays the answer to the question What really matters to me? You may not even hear your answer until later sometimes our passions sneak up on us and don't fully show their faces until we are old enough and strong enough to contain them. Some students discover that they care deeply about social justice or global issues. Others find talents for arts such as photography or teaching. Some learn the important lesson of what they don't want to do with their lives. Whatever the discovery, students walk away from the Senior Project with a clearer sense of who they are and who they are becoming. Good or bad, the experience teaches us valuable information. A senior project can help you find what you would like to do in college and what you would like to do in life. Researching and talking to people that are in the field that you were interested in can show you a glimpse of what it would be like to work in that field that you are doing the research in. A senior...

...Senior Project 1 Senior Project Eva Marie R. Short Victor Valley College School of Nursing Senior Project 2 Assessment The responsibilities of Class Vice President include organizing, leading and documenting student/faculty meetings, as well as offering support to the yearbook and graduation committees respectively. Student/Faculty meetings are once a month meetings where the students and faculty can get together and the students can voice their concerns, suggestions and clarify any rules or regulations they feel are not entirely clear. The bulk of the attendance at these meetings are representatives who are elected from each clinical group from processes one, two and three.

...By contributing in the Senior Project, I have learned more about my topic and myself. Since I was very young, I have always dreamed of getting married. Just the thought of matrimony made me giddy inside. Around the age of four, I was always the flower girl at all of my relatives’ weddings. Over the years, I had discovered that children, in some third-world countries, can be forced into marriage against their will. Even though I love the concept of marriage, I would never had been ready for that kind of commitment at such a young age. I have learned that I am so privileged, and I should be grateful for many instances in my life. I could have been forced into marriage, however I am able to say that I can dream about matrimony in the future. Throughout my high school career, I have made a long-lasting impact on myself. I have learned more about myself in the last four years than I did in my entire lifetime. Since freshman year, I have always desired to obtain a 4.0 grade point average or higher by my senior year. I can proudly say that I have reached this goal successfully. When...

...Final Report Team B: Legacy Consultants Ian Byrne, Darcy Cafiero, Sierra Collins, Tim Downen, Alvis Ford BUS 460 Senior Project Professor Maureen Lockwood DeVry University October 20, 2011 Executive Summary A comprehensive look into CanGo has led to a number of conclusions and recommendations by Legacy Consultants. A SWOT analysis of the company shows that there are good opportunities for expansion into other markets and that the threats and weaknesses that exist can be overcome or managed by an already dedicated senior staff with some additional training and direction. Product delivery and customer service can be streamlined by utilizing updated technology such as an AS/RS in CanGo’s warehouses. An online customer support and service center will improve customer experiences. A competitive advantage can be expected with state of the art product delivery and improved customer service. Strategically, CanGo needs to expand in order to stay ahead of growing competition. Legacy Consultants recommends purchasing Webjouster as the way to enter into online gaming. CanGo should stay away from offering violent games in order to maintain brand integrity. Server capacity should be increased in order to accommodate expansion demand with minimal down-time.

...Project Course Exercise If businesses/organizations are to succeed, it is imperative that there be definitive and attainable objectives and results. The organization will define objectives by looking at the marketplace in which the organization is competing, the core competencies of the organization, recognizing how these can be applied to the goal of success, and then applying the organization's skills and competencies to accomplish the successes. This also means that the organization needs to identify areas it will not pursue – those that are not directly related to the core elements and competencies of the organization. As an example, if a company were focused on developing and manufacturing sporting equipment, it would need to determine if this includes all sporting equipment or a selection of products. Further, the company would need to determine what would be the various levels of support it would provide to its customers. For example, would the company take its equipment directly to the consumers for demonstrations and lessons on how to gain the optimal results with the equipment? All of these types of decisions would be the result of the organization developing a strategy for how it will conduct its business. All of this translates into Strategic Management with the intended result of gaining a competitive advantage in a business niche. Very simply, developing a Strategic Management Plan means having defined what is the best set of results the organization can attain...

...Overview of Firefighting Brandon Rodgers Centennial High School Abstract This paper explores the different aspects in living a firefighter’s life. The topics that will be covered are the various types of technology when being a fireman, the different tactics you see on a day to day basis, the physical abilities one must be capable of, and the types of equipment used. The technology used today to help fight fires is extremely progressed and different than it was even just ten years ago. If it were not for these new inventions, communication would not be as easy and complex for any fire station. Firemen face different obstacles every day and have to be ready to jump right in with whatever the circumstance may be. Tactics such as how to use ventilation tools, the proper way to handle forest fires, and the basic prevention techniques to stay as safe and efficient as possible. Becoming a fireman is not cut out for someone who is not athletically gifted. It takes a strong person; both mentally and physically, do complete the drills that one must see every day. The equipment alone is all extremely heavy and powerful. There are many things that most people are unaware of when it comes to the basic characteristics of being a firefighter. Overview of Firefighting When the average person thinks of being a firefighter, they usually imagine cute Dalmatian dogs, loud sirens, heavy clothes, huge water hoses, poles to slide down, and giant ladders. Firefighting...

...Although I finished my data collection a few weeks ago (hence the lack of posting), I've been continuing my work with YAA and the i.d.e.a. Museum. Over the course of my Senior Research Project, I've gained experience with research in a non-scientific setting, and I've also learned more about what makes outreach efforts successful. While my involvement with Young Authors of Arizona continues, the awards ceremony two weeks ago marks my last event as a Student Leader with YAA. I recently committed to the University of Pennsylvania, and I hope to apply what I've learned about writing outreach to similar efforts in Philadelphia. For now, I'm looking into future projects for YAA and searching for new student leadership to make those projects happen. I'm also helping the i.d.e.a. Museum to develop a more formalized summer program for teen volunteers....

...Senior Project People in the government offices and on the worksite work tirelessly to approve and solve many problems ranging from basic service fulfillment to catastrophic emergency contingencies. Cities are complex machines that requires constant upkeep and maintenance from many agencies that face a multitude of interconnecting and magnitudinal tasks in order to keep it a productive, efficient, and clean population center. Civil engineering and complex procedures keep a city in working order, and infrastructure is the keystone of concerns and problems that people in these departments face. In the city infrastructure is broken down into two categories, hard infrastructure, the physical manifestation of services such as transportation, energy, information, and sanitation. Things like roads, power lines, and sewers fall into this category. The other is “soft” infrastructure, things such as law, accounting/ finance. and business capabilities fall into this. Hard infrastructure is what really drives a city, and allows it to grow and...
