Blog 15: Independent Component 2 Approval

Content:

The Independent Component 2 is an opportunity for you to add a dimension of creativity and/or an additional outlet for research.  The goal of the component is for you to explore your answers in more depth.  On Friday, April 24, 2014, you will be turning in the following to your blog to prove completion of this component:

·       Log of hours on an digital spreadsheet (with total number of hours included)
·       Evidence of the 30 hours of work     

For this blog post and approval, please answer the following questions.

1.  Describe in detail what you plan to do for your 30 hours.

 I will be attending an Online Management Course that is provided by my mentor's company WIS International. This course is given in not only his company but many other businesses. My mentors actually require me to take this course and there are many sets of classes and sections to this so that it will give me comfortably more than 30 hours required to pass Independent Component 2. I will take this course online on Mondays and Wednesdays because it works best with my iPoly and Cal Poly Courses schedule. I expect to finish by the due date which is April 24th.

2.  Discuss how or what you will do to meet the expectation of showing 30 hours of evidence.

In order to receive an AE or E and to prove that I have taken this course for the next few weeks. I will take notes from the online textbook and use that as my main resource piece for the Independent Component 2 Blog Post. Along with having a notebook (which will be a physical copy of my work) I will also provide short reflections of each day I work on the online course. I will also have the certification of completion. This ensures three pieces of physical evidence. The final evidence is my Independent Component Blog Post. I will have meet more than expected.

3.  Explain how this component will help you explore your topic in more depth.

My EQ wants me to discover (as an owner-manager), in depth of how to manage the stores. I currently cannot manage the store without having a class to know the basics. One of my mentors recommended this course because he has taken it and also provides it to his employees in the business. This course will help me discover my 3rd Thesis Answer in the future when I complete Independent Component Work. I will also be able to use the textbook as references for my research notebook. Finally, this course is benefitting me with answering my Essential Question, research notebook and references for my Senior Project Final Presentation in May.

4. Post a log in your Senior Project Hours link and label it "Independent Component 2" log.
