The first semester of college is coming close to an end. We
have all had to change and morph into a cliché college student just to get the
great grades we were hoping for (stay away to the wee hours of the morning,
spending your downtime studying for tests you feel completely unprepared for
and going to the office hours most professors strongly advise and suggest but
most students end up avoiding.) And if there hasn’t been enough stress already,
finals are about to begin.
This week,
I will be intensely focused on finishing my rough draft of my Inquiry 101 class
final, before I go home for the thanksgiving recess. This project is supposed to pool together all
my knowledge and resources of what I’ve learned this semester into one great
video project. The video will be focusing on have 5 distinct components; describing
the problem, exploring possible outcomes and proposing the best solution(s), providing
useful information about resources on campus that students can access in
dealing with the problem, ample research, interviews, quotes from readings, facts,
or other evidence to support both the description of the problem and the
proposal of the solution(s), and using creativity to engage your audience.
The
problem I have chosen to address and find a way to solve is, the lack of money college
students have and how they can go about making money whilst in school. I chose
this topic because it is a problem that many college students face, especially here
at SCSU. As college students, we are constantly wanting to be independent and
go out and act like the adults we so desperately want to be. But this reality is
hard to face as a college student.
To make
this final, high college-level material I have many things planned to be put
into the project. I will include, ways to research jobs either on or near
campus, as well as look at possible transportation to get to jobs off campus. I
will also include specific examples of jobs on campus and how you would go
about applying for said jobs. Along with that, I will hopefully acquire a job application
and record a video of me filling out an application, sort of like a tutorial.
With all this information, it physically tells you everything you need to do to
get a job and how to apply. This video is informational and a great utilization
of my resources put into one simple video for you to find a job. Keep a look
out for it!!
