Megan Doe's Q2 Benchmark Reflection

Click here to view my project.

When choosing a topic for each part branch of government, I considered what has had a bearing on my life. At first I researched topics suggested to me by my teacher and students. From there I found related topics that influence other topics I already researched.  The process was hard when I had to put each law, case and office into my own words, however relating it to my life was easy. Sometimes understanding the exact intention of each landmark decision was difficult too.

As I get older, I believe the government will impact me even more than it does not. As an adult I will have to make more decisions, fill out more paper work, and mostly like interact and help influence the decisions of the different branches of government.

This was a fantastic project. It opened my eyes to many cases, laws, and offices that I was unaware of.  I am less ignorant of my government. I truly believe I learned throughout this process.
