Blog 23: Final Lesson Reflection

1. Out of my whole presentation, I am most proud of my best answer  and the activity that went a long with it. My best answer was that the best way for a doctor to increase patient satisfaction is for the doctor to treat their patient in a comfortable environment. I loved this answer because of the research I found on it. It fascinated me and my mind was blown, when I least expected it. Before this project, I had no idea that colors had different wavelengths and that the brain calculates them and responds to them with reactions from hormone secretions. I had no idea of the scientific processes behind how color affects mood and behavior. It was so interesting to learn about it all and it was even cooler getting to share that information with others through my presentation. I hope at least some were mind blown like I was. 
I also loved my activity because I got to see how creative, inventive, and intelligent my fellow students were. I got to see them have fun with the factor of environment. It was awesome because watching them work and seeing their ideas, I learned a lot from them as they showed me things that I had not thought of before. So, it was just really cool to learn from the people that I was teaching to.

2. For my block presentation, I believe I deserve a P.
   I also believe I deserve a P for my overall project. 

3. What worked for me in my senior project was my third answer the best because I found a lot of information on it and was also most engaged with it than my other answers, so it worked really well. Also, coming up with my activity that tied into my third answer. Lastly, what worked well was when I was mentoring with Dr. Bishara at Durfee Medical. It was a great experience shadowing there, getting to see him work with all kinds of different patients. I gained perspective on the work life of a doctor, which has helped me, I believe, in my journey of becoming a doctor myself. I now am more educated on the medical life, so that was really cool. The last thing that worked extremely well was my senior project blog. Let's face it, my blog is awesome. I created a library theme of ancient books and wonder and knowledge. My font colors are all matching, and they are a beautiful reddish brown because that is the color of ancient books. Also, the typewriter font contributed to the feel of knowledge. And to make it a little more fun, the beginning letter of each paragraph was bolded and in times new roman. Which, if you are a reader yourself, old fantasy books do this with the beginning letters of the chapter. So, I had a lot of fun with my blog.

4. What didn't work was finding evidence for my second and third answers: reassurance & hope, connecting culturally. This was tough because those answers were a lot more subjective so it was harder to find evidence to support them. It was tough, but I did it, so i was glad for that. 
If I could go back, I would probably try and change my topic to something relating to the circus or Cirque de Soleil. I chose Patient Care because I want to be a doctor when I grow up, however, circus acts are one of my loves, passions, dreams. I think if I could have mentored with someone in that field and would have been able to be apart of circus life somehow, I think that would have been absolutely awesome and I would have loved it and would have had a lot more fun with the project. I believe Patient Care helped me a lot, though, on my journey to becoming a doctor.

5. The senior project helped me with my future endeavors because I plan to be a doctor in the future, so I was able to gain insight of being a doctor through mentorship, watching Dr. Bishara how he worked on and interacted with the patients and how he handled different and difficult situations with patients and not with patients. I also was able to gain a lot of knowledge through all of the research. I believe it was all very beneficial and when I really go into the start of my journey, I won't be going in blindly.

THANK YOU AND FAREWELL
