Problems that have the Biggest EffectFor this week I am determining the major problems in the world and looking at the cause and effect of it. I am going to the databases and criterable websites to determine this. In the future I’m hoping to ask people what they think of the list and if I should add or take stuff away. This is also why I’m doing this to inform the people of this things that happen in the world because we need to come together to make a change. Here are a couple of the ones I came up with

Google SheetThe first thing I’m doing to complete my genius hour project is to make a google sheet that is going to have all my information. This will includes the type of source, author/ short title, pages, paragraph topic, and the website link. This is so everything is organized and I have all my source in case someone wants to know where I got it from. I will be providing this link on my website so everyone can see. I’m also finding organizations that are help fix problems in the world and a link to where you can donate money so you to can make a change. DatabasesSome of the information I’m getting is from the school databases that librarian has provided. In case you don’t know what databases are they are a collection of data, or information, that is organized especially to be used by a computer. The reason on why I'm using this is to because there are a lot reliable, credible resource that NCWiseOwl has provided. A very common website I was is Gale Student Resources in Context and this gives me the option to choose from book, websites, newspaper, biographies and pictures that give me the date and who published it. I will ask teachers to look at my research and tell me which are the best to pick, when I start putting all information in the website. Updates on Blog WebsiteI also worked a little on my website (blog) to make it my own and started putting things on it about me. This is so people can get a better understanding of why or what brought this genius hour idea up. Hopefully you all can check it out and hope you’ll have a wonderful day.
The Big IdeaMy driving question is "What change can I make to help the world?". I want to make a website with the latest features and to have relevant and credible information that talks about the world's problems that affects human beings . I want to inform people in ways they can help reduce these problems and maybe donate to charity. Why I am doing this?Some background information about me is I attended Saint Francis of Assisi's Catholic church and everyday at the beginning of class I would write and read in my "Decision Point" journal/book. We would later talk about it with classmates and teachers with this it made me think of how fortunate I am and how many people didn’t have some of the basic things I have. My GoalsI have some goals for my genius hour project, the first one is having relevant and credible information on the website to help people have a good understanding of what they are reading. My second goal is to have a good website, and by this I mean it’s going to have a unique stand, showcase likable and relatable videos, provide insight and inspiration, and to make the website easy to navigate. The Final ProductMy final product is going to be a website that has the latest features and easy to navigate that talks about the major problem of humans in the world and ways to mitigate the problem. All the information on the my website I will have a google sheet that includes the sources, websites, authors, and date that they were published. And at the end I will elaborate my project to my classmates. I’ll communicate the resources and strategies I used throughout the project and evaluates its success.
