(1) Positive Statement
What are you most proud of in your Block Presentation and/or your senior project? Why?
I'm happy that most of the kids participated in my activities and enjoyed it, as well as proved my answer correct. My EQ is: what is the best way a girl's softball team can win CIF and my answer was: constantly verbalizing what you are doing in the field. When we were doing my 30 minute activity, I told them they couldn't take and people like Ronny Martinez, found alternatives and it was quite great to see.
(2) Questions to Consider
a. What assessment would you give yourself on your Block Presentation (self-assessment)?
AE P AP CR NC
b. What assessment would you give yourself on your overall senior project (self-assessment)?
AE P AP CR NC
(3) What worked for you in your senior project?
The different mentors I use and sports to determine what was the "best way" a team can win CIF really helped me see what other sport coaches do and how they are similar.
(4) (What didn't work) If you had a time machine, what would have you done differently to improve your senior project if you could go back in time?
I needed to slow down my talking and really pronounce every word because I kept mispronouncing since I was so nervous, but what's done is done.
(5) Finding Value
How has the senior project been helpful to you in your future endeavors? Be specific and use examples.
Coaching is the same as teaching someone something so I've gained better communication skills that will allow me to use in future jobs, especially since iPoly has taught me to present and my mentorships have help me find solutions and learn to teach not only kids but young adults like myself.

Interpretive
What is the most important thing you gained from this experience? Why?
I learned that there is many ways you can gain respect as a coach but being trusted from both parents and athletes is pretty hard. Athletes can see you as either a cool and relaxing coach, which is okay with most parents but not all. And if you're too hard on the kids, parents complain.

How has what you've done helped you to answer your EQ? Please explain.
With every game and practice I've experienced I got a better knowledge of what my answers could be but once I got that figured the examples and hands-on experience came naturally. My first answer is constantly verbalizing what you are doing in the field, which actually showed a combination of teamwork and commitment due to the fact that working together to achieve a goal is helpful just like constantly saying what you're doing on the field to help win a game. My second answer is contact with the ball because seeing where it goes and being able to predict the outcomes of the play can help you win. Which finally brings me to my third answer, games are usually decided by 1 run. Everyone on your team can be the difference in a win. The best way a girl's softball team can win CIF is determined by every hit every player takes.
