Things at a Showcase

Our class has the opportunity to participate in a showcase featuring our Bracelet project along side the other Entrepreneurial Adventures. The problem is that only 12 students can go due to space at the venue. Our class decided it would be best to identify the criteria important for the people who go. Anyone in the class can then put their names into the hat if they would like the chance to go and represent us. Here is our criteria.


Criteria for Representing the Class at the Entrepreneurial Adventure Showcase

Worked hard on the project in and out of class time.

Comfortable speaking about the project to strangers.

Know the project well. Understand what we did and why we did it.

Should not be behind in any work.

Should be ok with the fact that this is not a social break. This is work.

Things That Give Back

I know Kelly wrote a great post about The Bracelet but I just wanted to add on how proud I was of all of you. You did a spectacular job and should hold your heads high. Awesome Sauce.
