journal week 12

Weekly Project Journal

Each week of the project, student must submit a project journal entry. The journal entry consists of three parts:

1. Description. What happened in your project this week? What did you do? Experience?

This week I returned to internship after having been sick for a long time. I started getting back to compiling the totals for a list of donors for the newsletter. I also organized the office a bit and the cabinets.

2. Interpretation. What did you learn from your project this week? About the project? About the issue? About yourself?

I learned that they really care about me at the Children's Law Center. I also learned that there is a lot of grunt work that goes into a newsletter. I learned that my project is really flexible. I learned a bit more about what it takes to run a non-profit for children's rights, including how to have a more functional, clean office. I learned that I really enjoy working with the CLC, I had forgotten how much I missed them while I was gone.

3. Evaluation. How would you evaluate your work on the project this week? What grade would you give yourself? Are you accomplishing the objectives of the project? Your personal objectives?

I would give myself a B for the week because my energy was still low so I didn't give an A effort because I still can't. I think I am accomplishing my objectives week by week.

Students must submit one journal each week for each of the fourteen weeks in the project beginning Nov 5. Upload the journal to the Project Assignments section of WebCT. You must also cut and paste a portion of your journal into your blog.
