Senior Project Reflection

1) Positive Statement
I am most proud of my determination and ability to meet all deadlines throughout the year because it shows how dedicated I was to this project.

2) Questions To Consider
a) I would give myself a P on my 2-Hour Presentation because I feel I did well, but I didn't do anything special.
b) I would give myself an AE- given my performance throughout the entire senior project. I've always been on task and produced quality work for every component and aspect of my project.

3) What Worked
No aspect of the project being a group effort. I got to show how I work on my own.

4) What Didn't Work
Nothing comes to mind. I enjoyed senior project and I think it was my favorite project at iPoly.

5) Finding Value
The senior project taught me how to really back up things I say with evidence. It also taught me not to worry about little things in life.

Service Learning

Literal
Service Learning Hours Log
Contact: Dennis Thorbourn. The Glass House Concert Hall. 818.720.2945

Interpretive
What is the most important thing you gained from this experience? Why?
The most important thing that I learned at The Glass House was that you have to learn to put aside your own opinions during the planning of an event. Sometimes it's for the better of the entire group you're working with or sometimes it's for the client. I realized the similarities between concert production and event planning, such as the major part about pleasing the client. I found that concert production is more complicated because there are several parties to please instead of just a couple.

Applied
How did what you did help answer your EQ? Please explain.
My service learning helped answer my EQ by showing me all avenues of concert production including the good and bad. I was lucky enough to have service learning that was directly related to my topic, so I literally got to see concert production unfold before my eyes. I got to see several things that were important to producing a successful concert experience.
