Background- Like stated in my initial proposal the reason for my interest in Aids Awareness is because when I was twelve my father passed away from Aids. I would like to find a way to get more people aware and decrease the number of new cases out there. How can awareness of AIDS help the USA prevent an epidemic as big as Africa's? My driving question is essential to my project because I believe it will solve an epidemic such as Africa. I think more people need to think of ways to lessen the growth of AIDS. Vision- I know after this project is done I will feel accomplished and I will be very proud of myself, for I will know I worked hard on a project that benefits not only me but others. At the end of the project I would like to see more teens knowing facts about AIDS and being more cautious about their actions. I hope that at the end that more people will want to protected themselves. My project will address the driving question by comparing the two countries and showing similar statistics, and addressing ways the USA can prevent such an extreme epidemic. My Finial project will be a fundraiser, raising money for AIDS Awareness. During the Fundraiser I will have acts performing and in-between the acts I will state different facts about AIDS. Goals- Conduct a successful fundraiser, raising money for AIDS and also spreading the word about the harms of AIDS. More teaching of AIDS awareness in schools. Finding more ways teens can be accessible to testing. Decrease the AIDS count among the younger group. Bring awareness not to just USA but also Africa Products-One of my products will be my fundraiser, which will be held the same day as my presentation. There I will be able to raise money and get people out to hear about AIDS and learn. My other product will be a quiz I will give out during homeroom. It will ask various questions about AIDS. The reason for this is to see truly how much or little people know about the disease. Task Analysis- for this project I believe I have gathered most of my information, I would like to gather more information about teaching AIDS in schools so I have stronger facts to support my opinion. From now October 21st to about November 11th I would like to oragnize all my information and facts. i would like to start a lay out for my paper. Also between that time I would like to have had my quizzes completed by the kids of Springfield. I would like to have flyers made and handed out to recruit performers for my fundraiser. Between November 11 and December 11 I would like to have all my acts and a layout of the talent show. i will also like to start my presentation and get that completed in pleny of time to be able to review it alot. I am going to need the auditorium for my fundraiser on January 9th 2008, from about 6:30- to 9;30. I would need volunteers to help run the fundraiser, which will most likely be my family and friends. I would also need to gather more facts to announce at my fundraiser and also quiz questions before both of those due dates. Mentor and Topic Expert Analysis- My mentor is Shakeena Pierce she has helped me by giving me a lot of ideas for the fundraiser. She is going to help me hand out the quizzes. She has been very helpful and has been helping me think of different ways to get my point across. She will be a very big help organizing the fundraiser. I am very close to Shakeena so it is not to talk to her I see her every day. I keep her interested by telling her new things I want to do and facts that would surprise her about the disease. My export is my Beverly Williams she works at a doctorsoffice and knows a lot about AIDS Awareness and has been involved in increasing Awareness in her office. I contact her through email and the telephone. I believe she has a strong passion for my topic and have no doubt that she will be a big help. Conclusion- I need to just stay determined about this project which I feel I will since it is so important to me. This is not just about my personal experience with AIDS but it is about helping saving young people. Im building on my determination to allow me to succeed I will have to work on my timing things out and rechecking everything. I will need to stay on track and reach all my deadlines. I will need be less lazy and start to truly crack down on what need to get down. makes sure im on the right track. ||
