Blog 14: Independent Component 1


Literal:
  1. I, Alexis Ayala, affirm that I completed my independent component which represents 30 hours of work.
  2. Mr. Ogden, since I did the majority of my tutoring in his class.
  3. 30.5 Hours
  1. I tutored students from I-Poly for Statistics and for Physics. Sometimes we would study the days before a test or quiz, but we also just worked on the homework.
Interpretive:

  • My independent component demonstrates 30 hours of work because I counted my tutoring hours for each student I helped. The significant part of these 30 hours was when I would help students understand concepts in their math and science classes right before a test.



Applied:
  • This independent component not only helped me understand the foundation of my topic, but it also helped me with my first answer to my EQ. When I tutored the students I noticed that both Statistics and Physics contained problems that can only be understood with a solid Algebra background. Also, I was able to make a first answer (knowing the right steps to teach a concept) and actually use those steps on my friends. These steps were making a foundation and understanding the purpose, constant practice, and being available to the students.
