For my capstone project I created a website that acts as a guide for someone trying to become a lifeguard in Philly. The project is mainly focused on giving teens the information they need to be successful in becoming a lifeguard, and it also gives some details and tips on how to be a good lifeguard when they get the job. My capstone was a lot of research and looking back at old papers I had when I worked in the summer, and that I was having to fill out for this summer. I think that this project could end up helping people in the future who want to become a lifeguard or just want to know more about it all. I think that it’s a good combination of all the information that I needed to know when I first got the job. Doing this project I learned new things about the application and certification process and the kind of stuff that would confuse someone going into it, and I got the answers to a lot of questions that I had when I got the job. Overall, I wanted to make this capstone because the process of becoming a lifeguard was confusing for me, and I imagine it’s confusing for a lot of people, so I wanted to make an easy to understand guide that got all the important points out in one place.
