meeting with mentor 3

On April 17 I met with my mentor Mrs. Kuss from 2-3 pm. The first thing we did was e-mailed my brochure to Mrs. Mimi so she could print it for me using her color printer I learned how to send an e-mail with an attachment. Then we began the power point for my class presentation. We designed the title slide and did slides on history, possible causes, characteristcs, and incidence of ADHD. We chose the slide design and searchd google images to find appropriate pictures for the slides.

meeting with mentor

On Thursday, April 5, I met twice with my mentor for my senior Capstone Project on Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder. Mrs. Kathy Kuss, who is a doctoral student in gifted and creative education at the University of Georgia, and I discussed my project and began work on my brochure on ADHD. We completed four of the six panels on the brochure.
At the first meeting, from 11 am until noon, I explained that the goal of my project was to provide information on the history, symptoms, and treatments of ADHD. Mrs. Kuss shared with me several articles and a book containing information about my topic.
During our second meeting from 3 to 5 pm we designed the front of the brochure and three other panels, one on history of ADHD and two on characteristics of people with ADHD. We also discussed plans for a power point presentation and reviewed my research paper, incorporating information from the paper in the brochure.

The Renaissance

It sounds like a lot of different things were happening at this time. The printing press was a very important thing because it allowed people to get smarter if they could read more they could understand things more. Also alot of thing were changing with religion. Some people wanted to change to a different riligion because power was slipping away from the Catholic church.
