Independent Component 1 Plan Approval (See Updated Version)


1.       Write a description of what you plan on doing for you independent study component.
I am going to continue my service learning and do an extra 30 hours for just the independent component. I would really like to see if there is anything else I could possibly do besides this but I still need to meet with my mentor to see if she has any ideas and if I do find something else I will update my blog.

2.       Describe in detail how you think your plan will meet the 30 hours work requirement.
Well since I am just continuing my service learning, I will be doing the same thing I do now. Making copies, filing, being involved in events and fundraisers put together by House of Ruth  and helping my mentor with anything else she needs. I will meet the 30 hours by going to her office more times in a week and staying for longer so I can get the component finished.

3.       How does your independent study component relate to your working eq?
My mentor always gives me plenty of information and answers any questions I have about my senior topic so since I will be working with her a lot for these hours she can help me with answering my eq and giving me a foundation.
