My final topic of focus is how to let myself thrive in the future. Gaining knowledge and skills that will be beneficial to me and others.
I was really excited about this project. I had only recently decided becoming a park ranger was something I wanted to do. Going on our family trips to National Parks was always my favorite part of the summer but on break before this class started, we went to the Grand Canyon. While we were there is when I was like "yeah this is something I want to do". Everyone else was overwhelmed by the heat but I was just in awe. I had been stressing over my future for as long as I can remember so finally coming to this realization made me super excited about our Capstone.
I felt okay about the size of this project. I knew it was a lot but I was thinking about how this was something that I already wanted to do and now I could get credit for doing it? Deal!
I only had an idea of what I wanted to do. I had to work out a final product that worked for school because that isn't what I was really thinking about at first. I was able to figure it out pretty quickly though based on what I wanted to focus on the most within this project.
