My process for creating this project was fairly simple. Upon being informed of this assignment, my gears started to turn. I asked my parents for possible ideas on my Multi-Genre project. After consulting with them, I determined my project would be dedicated to my late grandmother.
Upon deciding this, immediately, different emotions were present. I started off very optimistic and elated on the calming effects the project would bring. While writing my five original pieces and working on creating the website, I often felt waves of sadness and even began to tear up as I presented pieces of the project to my peers and even the students in my class. Upon completing the project, I began to feel at ease and felt as my grandmother were alive, she would be very proud of the life decisions I am making. The time has come to now present the final project to my father and my father’s side of the family. I am apprehensive of the different emotions that will be presented. Yet, at the same time, my continual hope is that my family continues to find comfort and solace even though we continue to mourn the loss of our matriarch.

Transparency can lend itself to different sides in life. So, being able to clearly express my feelings and be completely open aided in helping to heal my heart. Firsthand, as a teacher, I often tell my students as they write, be completely honest with yourself and let the ideas continue to flow. At the same time, I realized I was not taking my own advice. This project gave me the chance to implement some of the same strategies and guidelines suggested for my students. At the end of the project, I was really amazed at how vivid my writing had been due to the fact that I was able to be open with myself concerning my
I wrote everything that was true, but my feelings were smothered by strong words and arrogance. Personal essays point out the flaws,
Guidelines are created to ensure a success interview process. Setup meeting time with the individuals, which will be interviewed and be prepared and on time.

On May 11th 2013, my grandma passed away due to pancreatic cancer. A little later that year on September 25th, my mom received a call from my aunt in Guam that my dad had passed away in his sleep. Then on May 14th 2014, my grandpa passed from complications of an allergic reaction to a medication. So within a year, I was left to deal with three immediate family deaths, one right after another. Losing such important figures in one’s life could leave someone depressed and unmotivated to move on with their own life and to rise above those challenges is difficult, yet possible. During this time of hardship, I grew discouraged and saddened, but over time I became motivated to set aside these struggles and make a change.
Jeff’s immediate reaction and desire of reassigning Tyler to his new project indicates that not all employees have bought in to or have a functional understanding of the organisation’s matrix
The Macro Field Project that I will be implementing is the Strengthening Families Program at the Department of Social Services. The purpose of this project is to address the issues related to high risk families. The program will provide instruction on parenting skills, communication, and tools to decrease their risk of out of home placement of the child while improving their quality of family unity (“Strengthening Families Program”, n.d.). The goals of the program are to decrease child misconduct in the home and school, delinquency, substance abuse in children and to improve social competencies (“Strengthening Families Program”, n.d.). The last goal is to improve the relationship between the parent and child and to increase bonding in hopes that child abuse will be prevented (“Strengthening Families Program”, n.d.). The goals/objectives of the project reflect the goals of
Throughout this semester I think I have learned a lot about myself through my writing. I opened up to the class about who I actually am, or who I think I may be. I think over the course of this class I have developed truthful writing. What exactly makes writing “truthful”? I think what makes writing truthful is the emotion it makes the reader feel. Are they feeling what you felt when you wrote your piece? Are those feelings raw? These are all questions I ask myself as I am writing.
Our class is filled with students who all have different personalities and interests, so it would only seem fitting if the Crossdisciplinary Projects varied from person to person. These set of presentations were very interesting and entertaining to watch. From Danielle’s “Sweet Little Babies,” to Tyler’s demonstration on “How to Slay a Dragon,” they were all great. However, only one of the projects really stood out to me and it was James’ song based on John Donne’s sonnets. I am a person who really enjoys music, so it is no surprise that I would choose between Kaylee and James’ projects. Kaylee did a wonderful job setting Shakespeare’s sonnet to music, but I had to choose James’ project as my favorite because it sounded like the type of music
Watching my grandmother lay in the hospital and dieing was one of the most painful feelings I have ever felt in my life. I felt many different emotions when she passed away. I felt sad, angry, shocked, and many more, but all those feelings made me stronger as person mentally. I knew that one day everyone would die and no one could control that. Her death affected me in both a positive and negative way. My dad regrets many things that he did to his mom, so I know now that one day my parents will die and I should respect them and let them know I love them every day. The death of my grandma also made a negative effect on my life. Ever since she passed away my family been breaking
The way society shapes the way that individuals see people who have a disability is what my Personal Interest Project is about. It is on the way that individuals see people with a disability and whether or not this is base around other people in society’s ideas. People often come to conclusions based on family expectations and their views towards something, views within the community for example peers impact thoughts and values and play a major role in each others views. The reason for this topic choice is due to having a huge interest in this field and wanting to do something that was different and that would relate across a broad number of my subjects.
Reflect: I can relate to you in so many ways. I just wanted to say that it is great that you chose your mother for this project. I can see that you dearly love her, and she is your world. I really enjoyed watching this video. It has a lot of great imagines of your mom and what she does on a daily basis. I love how your mom looks in the third imagine where we can see how beautiful she looks.
At one-hundred years young, my grandmother passed away. As the matriarch of our family, we felt both saddened and relieved to see her go. She was an independent, educated, hardworking woman who cherished her family and friends. Stories she shared about her youth and her numerous life experiences supported me and guided me. Much of my personal identity formed in connection to her. My grandmother’s landscape, traditions, and identity lives on through me and my family. We, as people, construct identities to both give life meaning and to make meaning of life.
The first project we will look at is a proposal by Book scape to add an online book ordering and information service. Although the impetus for this proposal comes from the success of other online retailers like Amazon.com, Book scape’s service will be more focused on helping customers research books and find the ones they need rather than on price. Thus, if Book scape decides to add this service, it will have to hire and train well-qualified individuals to answer customer queries, in addition to investing in the computer equipment and phone lines that the service will require. This project analysis will help illustrate some of the issues that come up when private businesses look at investments and also when businesses take on projects that
However, I must admit that it took me some time to accept that I can be transparent in my writing sessions. I was worried about how I should direct the sessions; how much I should advise them
As a writer I often write from experience and make my writing very intimate and personal. My writing process involves writing down feelings as soon as they are felt. I jot down how I feel wherever I
I don’t consider myself a very good writer. I write when I am made to or when I have something that I need to say that I can’t just tell someone. I keep a diary. Usually my diary is just a record of what I have done that day. It’s not so much about my feelings. I don’t really like talking about my feelings, usually because most of the time I am confused about what exactly I am feeling. I tend to keep the feelings that I do have to myself, to protect myself from getting hurt.
