(1) Positive Statement
What are you most proud of in your Block Presentation and/or your senior project? Why?
I am most proud of all of the knowledge and experience I have gained throughout these nine months. The skills I have learned will be useful to me in a wide variety of situations.
(2) Questions to Consider
a. What assessment would you give yourself on your Block Presentation (self-assessment)?
P
b. What assessment would you give yourself on your overall senior project (self-assessment)?
P
(3) What worked for you in your senior project?
The best thing that worked for me in this project was the fact that I enjoyed my topic. If I wasn't passionate about first aid, then I most likely would not have been able to retain so much information about my topic.
(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 would spend more time practicing my final presentation. As I was presenting, I was involuntarily speaking very quickly, which I believe could have been avoided with further rehearsing of my information.
(5) Finding Value
How has the senior project been helpful to you in your future endeavors? Be specific and use examples.
Well I have not had any future endeavors that have required the knowledge I have gained from my senior project yet, though I would assume that my first aid and leadership skills could come in handy in a wide variety of situations. There may come a time when someone I care about becomes injured and I now have the ability to help them. That is the ony thing I care about.

(1) What is your essential question and answers? What is your best answer and why?
EQ: How can an EMT team best execute first aid during an endurance challenge?
Answer 1: An EMT team can best execute first aid during an endurance challenge by creating a priority list of objectives.
Answer 2: An EMT team can best execute first aid during an endurance challenge by being prepared to treat injuries specific to the endurance challenge.
Answer 3: An EMT team can best execute first aid during an endurance challenge by identifying symptoms that the runners are trying to hide or are unaware of prior to the event.
My best answer is my first one, An EMT team can best execute first aid during an endurance challenge by creating a priority list of objectives, due to the ability to use this skill in any situation. Answer two only explains how to treat injuries and answer three explains how to identify, but answer one allows medical personnel to create a plan of action before entering the scene of the emergency. I used two textbook sources to help me back up this answer. The first is in a book titled First Responder, 8th Edition, by Chris and David Bergeron. There is a section called "Caring for the Medical Emergency" that gives a descriptive layout of a general priority list that can be applied to most situations. The second source is in EMR Complete by Daniel Limmer, which has a chapter titled "Incident Management" that describes what to do in situations that have more than one patient.
(2) What process did you take to arrive at this answer?
I had originally created this answer in my junior year of high school when we had our first day of senior presentations. I have wanted to do first aid as my senior topic since freshman year, but I had no idea we needed to create an EQ and a best answer, so after the first senior presentation I saw, I decided to get ahead of the game and create my answer. This does not mean I had any real justification for this to be my best answer though. When we began to research our topics on our own, my mentor had given me several textbooks to use. Most of them had layouts of general lists of objectives to accomplish in just about any medical emergency. I then asked my mentor to teach me his own way of handling a medical emergency. I had the opportunity to practice this newly acquired skill on October 19th, 2013, when I worked at the medical booth at an Ultramarathon. At one point during the day, we had several patients come to the booth at once and my mentor asked me to decide who should be treated first and how to treat them, so I went down my list of priorities. First was to check to see if any of the patients were in critical condition, in this case none of them were. Next I deduced that none of the patients' injuries/ailments needed to be treated right away (from a medical standpoint), so I decided that the participants in the marathon should be treated first, otherwise some of them would either leave or become a detriment in the care of the other patients by being an annoyance. This is the real world application of my best answer.
(3) What problems did you face? How did you resolve them?
My first problem occured when the teachers required me to change my EQ from how a bystander should handle a situation to how an EMT team should execute first aid during an endurance challenge. This wasn't a major problem because all I needed to do was tweek my way of thinking about the project. Two real problems with my senior project occured later on; I did not have enough opportunities to volunteer and I didn't have enough research. I began helping my mentor teach some of his first aid classes and assisted him in menial work (grading papers and preparing supplies), which solved my first problem. In order to solve the research issue, I had to broaden my scope of sources to online articles, not just textbooks.
(4) What are the two most significant sources you used to answer your essential question and why?
My two most significant sources would be my mentor, Robert Ethridge, whom is an EMT and medical unit leader for the US Forest Service, and one of the textbooks he has given me, titled EMR Complete by Daniel Limmer. My mentor has been a great help to me throughout this project by consistently giving me opportunities to apply the skills I have learned from him and has given me many good sources for research purposes. EMR Complete outlines how an EMT should execute first aid and tips on the best ways to handle medical emergencies.

March Blog Post
In this month, I had two opportunities to gain community service hours. I worked at an Ultramarathon and assisted my mentor in teaching one of his first aid classes. At the marathon, I helped get all of the gear and medical equipment prepared before the event, gave the participants check-ups before and during the marathon, treated the child runners, and helped take inventory after the event. At the class, I assisted by preparing the room and checking to make sure all of the students are performing the skills tests properly.

How can an EMT team best execute first aid during an endurance challenge?
Answer #3 (Write in a complete sentence like a thesis statement)*
An EMT team can best execute first aid during an endurance challenge by identifying symptoms that the runners are trying to hide or are unaware of.
3 details to support the answer (a detail is a fact and an example)
Endurance runners tend to have a serious passion for running, causeing them to want to hide symptoms that may force them to quit the challenge. At one of the ultramarathons I worked at, a runner was showing signs of liver failure, but tried to hide the symptoms in order to continue running.
There are some injuries/ailments that the runners may be unaware of, such as dehydration or over hydration.
Most of the endurance runners have their own set way of keeping themselves healthy during the challenges, which makes it harder for the runners to know if they are doing something wrong, such as improper food and water intake.
The research source (s) to support your details and answer
"Dehydration" from the NY Times, "Health" from Faqs.org, and "Common Running Injuries" by WebMD.

How can an EMT team best execute first aid during an endurance challenge? The best way to perform first aid during an endurance challenge is to be prepared for injuries at certain locations along the course. Runners tend to burn out at specific points along an endurance challenge, such as the eighteenth mile wall in an average marathon, so it is good to find out when that breaking point is to be prepared for it. Different types of endurance challenges have certain injuries that always occur during the event, like stress fractures at Ultramarathons, and though it's expected that EMT's are prepared for everything, its also good to be ready and waiting for those particualr injuries. Depending on the number of runners and the age group of the participants, more supplies may be needed, such as bandaids for kids. I used several online articles regarding specific endurance challenge injuries to help create my second answer. The best way an EMT team can perform first aid during an endurance challenge is to be prepared for the most common innjures for that challenge.

1. Describe in detail what you plan to do for your 30 hours.
On March 15th, Angel Flores and I will be working at a 24-hour endurance challenge. I will be assisting my mentor and his fellow EMT's at the First Aid station. I will be helping to set up the station four hours before the event, work as an EMT for the duration of the marathon, then check up on all the runners and clean up for the next two hours. In theory, I should reach the 30-hour mark with the one event. If not, I will also be assisting my mentor in his classes.
2. Discuss how or what you will do to meet the expectation of showing 30 hours of evidence.
Angel Flores will be taking pictures throughout the event. He has already agreed to take pictures of the EMT's while we are treating patients.
3. And explain how what you will be doing will help you explore your topic in more depth.
The endurance challenge is the perfect place to test what I have learned throughout the senior project because I will be providing minor care to patients in a safe and ecure environment.
4. Post a log on the right hand side of your blog near your other logs and call it the independent component 2 log.

1. Positive Statement
What are you most proud of in your Lesson 2 Presentation and why?
I am most proud of the powerpoint I had created. I rarely feel like I can make a good presentation and I believe I had achieved that.
2. Questions to Consider
a. What assessment would you give yourself on your Lesson 2 Presentation (self-assessment)?
P
b. Explain why you deserve that grade using evidence from the Lesson 2 component contract.
I believe I deserve a P for the component because I had reached all of the P-level requirements and I made time on each segment.
3. What worked for you in your Lesson 2?
Creating the powerpoint made practicing the lesson much easier than I had expected. I'm used to writing out a basic outline of a presentation on a piece of paper and practicing from there.
4. (What didn't work) If you had a time machine, what would you have done differently to improve your Lesson 2?
There are two things I would change. First, I would try to talk much slower and clearer. I would also remember to site the source that I had gained the dehdration data from.
5. Finding Value
What do you think your answer #2 is going to be?
I want my answer #2 to have something to do with actual medical care on a marathon runner, but I am not too sure how to word it yet.

1. It is important to consistently work on your senior project, whether it is break or we are in school. What did you do over the break with your senior project?
Due to the fact that the break was during winter, there have been no marathons that I have been allowed to work at and my mentor is in-between classes, so I have not been able to assist him in teaching a class. In order to continue my senior project work, I have been rereading the EMT and EMR textbooks that were given to me by my mentor. This has prevented me from forgetting some of the important details that I have learned throughout my mentorship. Also, due to some minor user-error, I needed to resupply and rearrange my medical equipment.
2. What was the most important thing you learned from what you did and why? What was the source of what you learned?
The most important thing that I learned for my senior project over the break is that in order to be able to learn medical techniques and procedures, you can't just put everything down and pick it up a few days later. The EMT and EMR fields require continuous attention in order for the knowledge to be retained effectively. The source of this would be the large amount of textbooks and articles that I have read over the break.
3. If you were going to do a 10 question interview on questions related to answers of your EQ, who would you talk to and why?
Since I switched my senior topic to being strictly about marathons, I would ask the coordinator of the Run 4 Kids marathons in my area. She has been running marathons like these for several years and her insight would be of great help.
