Questions, they are so many we ask and can't help but wonder whats the answer- but when we do get the answer, we can't help to ask more questions about the answer and so on. So- what is the question? Well that's what the 2015 Mendez Fundamental Symposium was all about. On May 28, 2015 my currently AVID class and I went down to my school's gym to experience and see the creations/posters/projects that 7th and 8th grade students did. They were complex and looked as if it took days to complete it, which it did, but the thing that mattered the most was the question that had started and ended the explaining. One that stood up was the one about how children react to when they are the littlest, middle, and last child in the family
Well its that time of the school year again when we move on to second semester and away from the first one. In AVID, so far in the year I learned to speak up a little and to come out of my shell. Asking incredable questions really amazed my teachers thanks to Avid I guess and tutorials had been a huge impact on me because taking something you don't know-and taking that to a tutorial to understand it helps me improve. My improvent this year is huge compared to last years which mostly all my classes were in the 3-2 range. To get the oppertionity to go to San Diego State University or even better MIT University is a dream to me and to achive that dream I must improve in school and AVID will help me through-out the process. Aerospace- engineering here I come.
The AVID assignment I am most proud of is the TRF from last year that I have made. I am proud of this TRF because to despite the fact i wrote more its cause of the fact how i achived a greater understanding of my P.O.C . In all my other TRF's I have at least got a 15-20 rather than a complete 25/25 but on this one i have done it, and I'm proud of that.
As an Avid student in training i don't know much about this college program much like the students who have been in this elective for decades knowing all the proper steps.But out of all my training i have learned so far are subjects such as Cornell notes,Avid weekly's,tutorials,and last of all the steps and things the greatest universities/colleges are searching for in a well student. Keep in mind that i am just a beginner but plan on learning the Avid skills as long as i can.
