Blog 12: Service Learning

Blog 11: Third Interview Q's

* EQ TO BE REVISED

Blog 8: Research Reflection

So far, i have not learned anything new from just doing research. Although i have learned a few things in my service learning. For my topic, research on it's own isn't enough to learn something. You need to actually be able to work on things hands on. So my answer to this blog is that I need to do things hands on or I will not learn much besides history.

Blog 4: Interview 1 & Presentation 1

My first interview affected my presentation by clarifying a few things. In example, my interview helped distinguish the difference between a coroner and a medical examiner, coroner being an elected official and a medical examiner being appointed. What i think stood out was the knowledge i had about the different types of autopsies and the way they were used. The most challenging thing for me was speaking at a speed that was slow enough to explain everything well yet fast enough to cover everything.
