NHD Reflection 2009

This year things were much different from last year and some were similar situations that with every project you will always face but overall I think I have improved from last years project. For one, NHD was less stressful only because this was my second time around and I had some experience and a whole lot of focus. I also had a partner to help make certain decisions. But at the same time it was difficult to compromise because last year I did a paper so I was use to everything going my way.

Another process that became easy after I acquired knowledge and obtained experience was my bibliography. Since I had a partner it wasn't hard to find the source and since I used a website that Mr. Brasof showed us that would help form the MLA format it was pretty easy. Towards the end it was hard to find more sources because we decide that our project type would be exhibit which means we would need more primary sources.

Finally, the decorum of the board came natural for me and my partner. When it comes to color cordination we are great we dress ourselves every day, so we trusted in each others instincts. We decorated our board well. We showed off our primary sources well especially a recording that we found in yahoo. We used a tape recorder and recorded it and then taped it to our board so that people can hear it. I think our board was unique because of that.
