Blog: 22 Senior Project Reflection

(1) Positive Statement

What are you most proud of in your Block Presentation and/or your senior project? Why?
What I am most proud of is seeing how my hook activity and my activity got each group really engaged, the activity brought out the creativeness of the students.

(2) Questions to Consider

a. What assessment would you give yourself on your Block Presentation (self-assessment)?
I would give myself a P for my block presentation.

b. What assessment would you give yourself on your overall senior project (self-assessment)?
I would give myself an AP for my overall senior project grade.

(3) What worked for you in your senior project?
What worked for me is actually playing a role as an advertising manager throughout my nine month process of the senior project.

(4) (What didn't work) If you had a time machine, what would have you done differently to improve your senior project if you could go back in time?
I would go back in time to my blog 14 which is the independent component 1 blog. I would go back to turn in that blog post in time, because that affected my senior project grade.

(5) Finding Value

How has the senior project been helpful to you in your future endeavors? Be specific and use examples.
Thanks to the senior project I got the experience with working with my mentor. He taught me so many things, for example the basics of what an advertising manager in the advertising industry does. And thanks to the senior project, who knows maybe I will study marketing and go more into advertising in the future!

Blog 21: Mentorship

Literal
  • Done.
  • Jose Murillo. (909)622-2086. Brothers Precision.
Interpretive
What is the most important thing you gained from this experience? Why?
The most important thing that I gained through this whole experience is, resposibility. My mentor gave me deadlines and budgets when he gave me an assignment. I was able to be responsible enough turn in my work to him on that certain deadline and I managed to not go over the budget he set. He gave me work that is actually what an actual advertising manager does. My mentor put a lot of weight on my shoulders but I was able to pull it off, and because of him he taught me the true meaning of responsibility in the advertising industry.

Applied
How has what you’ve done helped you to answer your EQ? Please explain.
The work that my mentor assigned helped me answer my EQ because it was actual hands on work. I had to create business cards, pens, and ads for the company. Being able to save money for the company with all of the products I created was really difficult. But I saved money and with the ads and business cards and I was able to bring in profit for the company. All of the work and experience that I have done really helped me answer my EQ with full on depth.
