Blog 7- Second Interview Questions

1.  Who is your mentor and where do they work?  If their workplace does not reflect their expertise, what makes them an expert?

My mentor is Sherrie Salmons and she is currently retired, though she does volunteer at the Family History Center on Grand. She also practices Family History on her spare time.

2.  What five questions will you ask them about their background?

Questions I would ask her are:

Why did you start Family History?
How long have you been participating in Family History?
What's something significant you have learned about yourself completing Family History?
Has your relationship with your family changed in any way ever since you started Family History?
What's your favorite part of Family History?

Blog 6: House Advisory House



1. What has worked well for you concerning senior project this year?  What has made it a positive experience for you?

The experience is making me excited to learn more about history and about my family and ways to help others learn of their family. This has been a positive experience has been positive because I don't know if I will get bored of my project and want to quit doing it.

2. What are you finding difficult concerning senior project?  How can you adapt to make that portion work better for you?  How might the senior team help?

I am finding it hard to find a way to get to my mentor ship hours, because there is no direct way to get to my area. I am looking up bus lines that go near my mentor ship so that I can make it to my hours, because no one is able to take me to my hours. There is no way for the senior team to help me because this is an issue of getting from point A to point B. I could talk to my mentor though about coming to my house and doing mentorship with me.

Blog 4: House Advisory House

What I hope to accomplish from my senior project is to learn more about my family and to be able to help others be able to learn about their family. Through the senior topic, I hope to learn techniques that will help me be able to kick through the "brick wall" that blocks my path from learning about my family.
