This week, we continued to evaluate the videos of one
another’s speeches. By leaving
constructive criticism for each other, we hoped to find specific ways to
improve our speaking. In class, I also
compiled a list of people to invite to the Independent Study and Mentorship
program’s winter research showcase, and obtained the appropriate number of
invitations. At showcase, all the ISM students in the district will set up
display boards with information pertaining to their fields of study. Each student must be prepared to answer
questions from friends, family members, teachers, and other attendees about his
or her topic. Our portfolios will also be on display during showcase in order
to allow guests to see all the research that we have conducted so far this school
year.
I also completed another research assessment after reading
an article that explained the benefits and drawbacks to different types of
therapy. In psychology, different
methods of treatment are available, and knowing about various types of
treatment allows a psychologist to more accurately determine which treatment is
best in each specific case. In the coming week, I look forward to conducting
additional research interviews and looking into more specific treatment plans
and strategies.
