Blog 9 - Advisory Prep 3

1. State whether or not you currently have a mentor, and what the status of your interview is with that person (I have completed the interview, I have scheduled the interview, I have not scheduled the interview, etc).

  • Currently I do have a mentor, the same one I started with, we have been in contact with each other which is good. I have not completed my interview, however I do have a day to complete it which is on next Monday around 2pm. 


2. At this point, your research is probably guiding your studies toward more specific areas within your topic.  Name the area or two you find most promising and explain your reasons.   

  • Looking at the research the topic that I'm guiding into is how long a senior citizen live being happy and active, not just sitting to around waiting for the moment.


3. What kinds of sources do you think will help you in the next month to gain more research depth?  Where will you go to get them?


  • The sources that have helped me get the most information have been articles or journal. For the next month I will probably get more of those, I would get them either from normal Google or on Cal Poly's library.


4. Write down a possible EQ.  Please don't worry about wording other than ensuring that it provides the option for multiple correct answers.  At this point, the senior team is most interested in understanding your thought process.


  • What are ways that an elderly person can live a longer and happier life?

Blog 4 - House Advisory Prep 1


Through my senior project, I want to learn about something I enjoy doing, which is helping senior citizens. I want to help make the rest of their lives more enjoyable and help them remain as healthy as they can. I want to grow relationships with them, I want to learn from them as well as have fun with them. The impact I want elderly people to get from my project is to learn how to live a long healthy life. That's what I want to focus on my senior topic. I want to help and educate seniors in longing there lives but also having fun. From this, I can learn to live a healthier like as well. With my mentorship and the research that I'm doing I think I can achieve this.
