RA Lupe's reflections on the year:![]() If I had to describe my experience in this project it would be incredibly welcoming. From the start everyone was so easy to talk to and become friends with. These past three quarters have been great, it saddens me that the last quarter of us as a group wasn’t as we planned. I could easily say that Fall quarter was by far my favorite. When I think of Fall I remember when we all first met and how we each learned how to transcribe and how to work the cameras. I will always remember how nervous we all were when learning to set up the cameras for the first time, and how accomplished we felt after having it down. One of my favorite memories from Fall quarter is starting the Researcher Club. Meeting students and seeing them engage and wanting to learn more of what research is was amazing. I always looked forward to the meeting and hearing all their ideas even if it was just two students, it was great to see them excited about something. I also enjoyed small talk with the students about college and the questions they had regarding different career paths. Let’s not forget about the pizza, it was delicious! I am also glad I had the chance to attend classroom observations and see how the camera's work is done and also get a better look at how the classroom is run first hand. Same thing goes with the PD, it was so interesting seeing all the teachers bounce ideas off each other on how to improve and get their students more engaged with science. Let’s not forget the RA meetings, those were always fun. Dana and Jasmine always had the best ice breakers and the M&Ms were great too! The one word I would choose to describe Spring Quarter would be “interesting”. This quarter was quite different for all of us. From getting used to a new environment and getting adjusted with online classes. Spring quarter we dealt with student letters which was great seeing how students showed affection to their loved ones when explaining to them why they chose the car they did. RA meetings were always fun, it was nice interacting with others due to all of us having to be in quarantine.
In all thank you Jasmine and Dana for giving me the opportunity to be part of this project. I would also like to thank you for constantly helping and giving us words of advice when it comes to our academic goals. I am thankful to have met everyone in this project and wish everyone the best.
