Name: Emily Treusch
Age: 15
Grade: 10th
Favorite Thing About Pathways: the individualized project-based learning.
Favorite (school-assigned) Project so far: the "we built a zoo" project.
Plans for the Future at this Point: Currently plans on 6 years of college to get a degree in psychology to be therapist.
What Projects have you Designed? Favorite? Least Favorite?: Favorite is the mental health presentation, she got to do something she likes and is interested in, least favorite is the argument paper on electroshock therapy because it's dealing with a lot of very negative things people would rather deny
Are you looking forward to any projects?: Health science career cluster projects
Additional comments: I really like the way the 10th graders run things. We look at standards from the state, and decide which ones we can use to make a project. It's a lot of looking at career clusters, then narrowing it down to a few standards and trying to hit them. Eventually you'll build up enough standards and make a project out of them. It doesn't work for everyone, but for some it works very well.
