journal week 13

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?

I didn't do very much this week; I just got a few hours in organizing the office and finishing the donors list. I will hopefully be able to get more hours in next week, but I think that I'm at an okay place as far as numbers adding up.

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

I learned a bit more about organization and I got to see an updated version of the newsletter, so I learned that the hard work pays off. I learned that the director has to check the trash every night for legally sensitive material, which was interesting. I also learned that Development Managers have a lot of paperwork that they have to keep after receiving donations and applying for grants. I learned that I am better at organizing other people's work spaces than I am at cleaning my own.

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 an A because I worked hard at what I did and I accomplished a lot in a short amount of time. I am accomplishing my objectives.

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.
