Self Reflection

1. At the moment i believe that i am around the p-p+ range. The reason being is that i do not have too many service learning and independent component hours. I do not believe I am in the AP range though, because i have turned everything one time and followed each direction to the best of my ability.
2. I think I have done well on both my interviews, so far i have gotten AEs on both. I plan to keep it that way with my last 3. I believe the reason is that i am comfortable to talking to new people, in both interviews I was very comfortable asking these professionals that I had never met before.
3. I would especially like to improve on my independent component, since I have such a few amount of hours.

What ive learned so far...

1. I've learned how to catagorize different crimes, ive learned the different ways to start out in the field, also back when i was focusing on the crime scene i learned how to set up a crime scene for investigation. As for the overall experience i have learned how to interact with complete strangers. Meaning, the times ive gone to my service learning place i have always met new people and i have learned how to make all my first impressions count.
2. i really do not understand how i would do this

Blog 1: Senior Project Blog

My topic is Criminal Investigation, because it is a career path that I have been interested in since I was in 6th grade. We had a writing assignment one day with the prompt, " What do you want to be when you want to grow up?." I sat there and the only thing came to mind was to have a job in the criminology field. Ever since, that has not changed, I honestly haven't made up my mind as to which specific job I would like though. For the past 6 years I have wanted to be a Forensic Anthropologist, then a Forensic Pathologist, Criminal Profiler, to become a criminal attorney, and it kept switching. That is why I hope this project will help me commit to a specific field and follow through. I felt if I researched Criminal Investigation, it was broad enough for me to explore the different jobs that are required in investigating a crime. Also to reveal which jobs I do not want to pursue, and to help me college wise as to which major to commit to.
