E. Please explain your answer in letter “D.”
Having very little knowledge about this subject can be challenging but if you have some
knowledge it can be an enjoyable project. You can also be as creative as you want when it comes
to taking photos, as well as the editing process.

8. Would you feel threatened to show your project to an expert for evaluation?

Yes I would feel threatened showing my project to an expert. I feel this way because I
consider myself an amatuer and not a professional. Having more training in this field would help
build my confidence.

9. List three things you now know after completing this project.

1. The editing process took more time than I anticipated.

2. Getting a good photo is harder than it seems.

3. Photography is very enjoyable.

1. Time management.

2. The basics of editing a photo.

3. Communication skills.

11. What comments about your project have you heard from students, parents, teachers, or
community members? For example: “I never knew you knew so much about motors.”

1. “They look good.”

2. “They look professional.”

3. “You made me less ugly”

12. Describe what risk(s) you took in completing this project. Consider not only a physical
risk, but an emotional or intellectual challenge.

I went into this project knowing very little about the editing process

13. List or describe any problems you encountered.

Weather was a big issue during my project.

How did you handle these problems?

I had to wait for the weather to cooperate

14. Is your project original or creative in any way? If yes, explain how.

My project has been presented before

15. How do you feel about having your paper, project, and evaluation form on file as a model
for next year’s students? Explain why or why not.

If my project was on model for future students it would make me feel satisfied knowing I
am helping students whether it is good or bad.

16. If given the opportunity, what would you do differently now that you speak from
experience?

Have more time towards planning the whole situation out rather than going to a location
and thinking of poses to do off of the top of my head.

17. Beyond the project itself, what did you learn about yourself?

I learned that having a planned schedule helps tremendously.

`
