3.20.19 Reflecting on Poster and Introducing Individual Products

Rationale: After reaching a consensus on the main points of the final poster and reaching a stage where only minor personal changes were necessary, it was found to be beneficial to reflect on the process to help learning for future posters. Also, since an independent research project is required, the project was introduced and brainstorming began.

Tools/Procedure: Google slides for presentation and Microsoft Word for QTM. As an independent project group, we finished our QTMs independently, then began discussions about the topic for our independent project and determined what should be researched to develop a proper question.

Results: The QTM was successfully completed and a topic to research was chosen.

Conclusion: Since a topic to research has been determined, it will be possible to spend more time honing a broader topic to get a developed and polished research question. Therefore, this strategy will help to ensure the results of the experiment end up being useful and interesting.

Next Steps: The next steps of the project will be to investigate the literature about this topic and later finalize the question before lab on Monday.
