Wow. I really can’t believe today was the first day of
project. Time really does fly! I am super excited for my project to go
underway, and can’t wait for all that is to come!
For my project, I will be revisiting my past field trips I
took while at Hawken Lower School. Prior to each visit, I will record my
memories and impressions from each trip, interview classmates and teachers, and
research the place I am off to visit. Then, when I return, I will record my new
impressions of where I visited, and compare how my outlook has changed over the
years. Some of my trips include: the West Side Market, Hastings’s Dairy Farm,
the Cleveland Art Museum, Botanical Gardens, Rainforest, Cleveland Orchestra,
and much more!
I chose to do this project because I feel it will be a nice
way to conclude my 15 years at Hawken. I am sure there will be a lot of reminiscing
between surveying my classmates, talking with old teachers, and thinking about
past memories. The greater focus of my
project, however, is to try to pinpoint the benefits of experiential learning
and propose how I believe these trips impacted the way I see the world. So I
ask, what better way to investigate experiential learning than by means of
experiential learning?
