#almostdone!

A

1)      Internet Inequality: The impact of home internet access on school success

2)      First, the topics are different, but both are research posters. Also,  It is dissimilar in some requirements like this one has abstract, backgrounds, methodology, results and conclusions and the requirements of us are introduction, results, conclusion and sources.

3)      The purpose of the poster is to inform about the gap between Hispanics and white students and how lower rate of home internet contributes to the educational gap. On the other hand, the poster of my team and I, it is about the underrepresented rate of Hispanic in STEM fields.

4)      The intended audiences for the poster are Hispanics, more specific to parents, students, and Hispanics related to educations that do not have a good access to internet. The issue of the topic clearly let you know that the intended audiences are Hispanics.

5)      The credibility of the poster is established by the University of Texas at Austin. This establishes that the information is reliable.

6)      The poster displays one image that make reference to diversity in a computer lab, also the poster use like 3 basic colors (Brown, orange and blue).

7)      The logos of the poster present background information, statistics and the methodology gives credibility to the information.

B

1)      The sample from UT Austin will be an excellent guide trough this group project. I plan to use the same format of the poster because the way that displays the information is easy to follow.

2)      My outline has not changed that much at all, but I will use this analysis sample as a complement for my own.

Section 1: Public Speaking

Evans’ speech was incredible, his idea was to make people understand what the “global citizen” is and what they do, to do a speech like this there is a need to prepare in several ways like rehearsing every single aspect for example time, tone of voice, clarity and even the reactions that you’ll make in specific times.

I’ll give you a great link to a video that can help you improve your presentation skills

Section 2: Public Opinion

http://news.utexas.edu/2015/08/24/texas-needs-more-diversity-in-stem-and-this-is-how-to-do-it

This Op-Ed talks about how we can increase diversity in the field of STEM in the state of Texas, they talk about the advantages of having a job and being part of a minority in this field like that there are very well paid positions and this also tells us ways to make diversity grow like thinking about culture, families, etc.

Section 3: Public Outreach

How have you been doing? I've been alright. I'm kind of lonely and such tonight because i'm usually with friends hanging out, but not tonight. So I thought it'd be a great night to work on a written report for my co-op work. I've got most of my GPP3O(leadership) course finished thanks to my lovely best friend of like 10 years. I'm so excited to come so close to graduating, it's so exhilarating, but so stressful because i still have so much to do, and so little time. But I am feeling like I WILL get this done. I am super excited to finally be done highschool.  My birth certificate hasn't come in yet, and I am getting impatient and super pissed off. I ordered it on the 16th of April, and sent my guarantor information in like two weeks ago. It should definitely be here by now.. I want it to hurry up, so I can go get my G1, but nope, they want me to wait five years.... speaking of which, after my high school, getting my licence is my next step I want to accomplish.
