Michael Ing Capstone

Posted by Michael Ing in CTE Senior Capstone · Kamal/Ugworji · Wed on

For my Capstone, I wanted to teach people about Lab-grown Meat and the advancements they have made in their product. The goal in mind was to teach people as well as get their opinions on it at the same time, to do this I created a website that had information about LGM that I thought to be important. I also created a survey that would help me get an idea of what people already knew about LGM and how they felt about it. When creating the website, I had to be mindful of how I worded things because I wanted to avoid portraying the wrong tone. I wanted to make sure I didn’t sound too opinionated because it might make people close-minded, Afterall my goal wasn’t to persuade them but to inform them. The survey helped me to figure out what things I should leave in and out of the website, and that was important to me because I didn’t want it to be too confusing for anyone reading it. I chose to make my Capstone to be about Lab-grown Meat because it is fascinating to me that technology like that even exists, along with that I think it has a lot of potentials to be something that could help us cut down the demand for livestock.

What's The Problem here?

Hi, my name is Michael Ing and when trying to decide on a subject that ment alot to me that I knew I would relate with I chose bullying because let's face it we have all experienced bullying in some way shape or form, so that's what I chose to pick for my subject in my You and the World project. I know I have been one of those people to experience it and I want to make a change, as much as I can anyway. While I can't go around and stop bullying myself what I can do is looking at the past experiences of those who were bullied and use it to help others cope and understand it. I can also use statistics to see who is affected more by bullying and why it mainly occurs.

`Now before we go any further we have to actually understand “what bullying is”, well bullying is a form of aggressive behavior towards a person that is always intentional. Usually “bullies” will choose the easiest target to pick on since it is usually done for entertainment. Bullying can occur in any different grade, and to any person. How the community reacts, well since Bullying is most familiarized in school environments i'm gonna use my examples in school environments mostly. In most common cases all students play roles even if they do nothing at all. In situations like this the most common types of roles include the bully/bullies, the person or persons being bullied and the bystanders. When reading through one of the cites it said that you shouldn't refer the “bully” as a “bully” but instead a person who has bullied (This also applies to the other roles also), this is because labeling the person might make them believe how they are perceived won't change and can't change so they just decide to not change anything.

This issue is significant because it can occur anywhere at anytime and it is not ok, I relate to this subject because I played the roles of bystander and person being bullied and it's not fun going to school everyday knowing you're not safe there like you deserve to be. It is important to learn more so we can actually know how to deal with these problems and change them for the better. The most important thing about my research is reading about the experiences that other people had to go through no matter what role they played. Also finding out the statistics about what general “group” those bullying mostly affect.

When I went up to present my slide I was a bit nervous but prepared myself, especially since we were set up to fail. And yes it did happen and most of the critiques I was given I did expect. So If I were able to redo this project over again I would 1. Make sure the colorization of the slide was correct and also make sure there was no digital errors in colorization or pixelization. My slide was originally intended to be orange but then came out to be red but I did not really care since either color would have worked anyways. Also something else that I messed up on was the fact that when choosing a picture to put for my background it came out a little pixelated which was not intended. If I were to redo this I would find a background with more detail so when I were to enlarge it, it won't pixelize. Also another error I made was that I tried to make the Image cut off and ended up doing so for no logical reason, I cut off the logo and it interfered with being able to see the picture.
