Temperature check on capstone project

 BLOG POST #4:   How does it make you feel when you see this wide range of capstone projects? Check in with your stress, excitement, motivation, and emotions as you begin to imagine your own work.

 

It gives me hope and ideas about how my capstone may run! I am concerned about what and how my capstone will be focused on.  Listening to the formats folks used, specifically Essence Harrison's, I can take the lead on topics lacking in my organization. As I write this, I want to focus on the leadership council I run with 20 students. Last year, I chose 8 topics for the students to learn and teach. This year, I am diving deep into lesson planning on privilege, intersectionality, power, etc. I am excited to see if this idea works and how to implement it in my project. I want to take the lead on something my organization needs to cover headstrong. We touch upon the topics. The council runs from October to May. There is an overview given to me, but we will redirect to fit my leadership guidelines for young folks of color!

Seeing the examples of other folks, I am less stressed.
