This link up above ^ is a Presentation I made for a Research Project in my English class about What "Beauty" is and what conclusions I had found. For a month I ran around, did my reasarch, conducted surveys in classrooms, watched BuzzFeed/Youtube video's, drew out my findings (I like to draw; thought I could put it into good use) and compiled all my research into this link and presented it to my class.
- Integration and application of Knowledge in Civic, Social, and Personal Context: It speaks for itself.
This is an image of my very first job: Larry H. Miller's: Megaplex Theaters. With the ethics and teachings I was gaining in my Intership class about how to get a job and keep and function that job, I was able to get immediatly hired as a team member at the Valley Fair Mall location. There I have been able to inegrate my knowledge about how to keep that job and have been able to develop new skills because of it.
