• APPLIED
  How did the component help you understand the foundation of your topic better?  Please include specific examples to illustrate this. 
• The independent component helped me learn a lot more about mental health. I learned about different types of important mental disorder and how these disorders can affect anyone, mainly the elderly. This pushed me into thinking into the psychological side of the elderly, I became interested in it. If it wasn't for my independent component I  would probably just be focusing on just the physical side of senior citizens.
