What would the penny weigh

This link will take you the presentation my group presented on what a penny would weigh if you were to pick it up of the sidewalk.

To reflect back on our presentation I would definitely say that more time could have been spent on it. The presentation really lacked any effort, we met one day and split up the work. We ended up having duplicated information which caused to really stumble through the presentation. Overall our presentation was not something that this caliber of students should be doing.

I believe for all the groups, even though there was a winner, non were up to par. More scientific research should have been done using the skills of the class to give more persuasive information.

Professional Development Plan

A professional development plan (PDP) for APSC-311 would contain much of the same items as for a company. A description of the course to give the general information of the course. The description of the course will give a the overall mission that will be accomplished during the course period. Next, we would want to discuss goals and explain how this mission will be achieved. What we plan on doing to reach these goals needs to be discussed next. To reach theses goals we need to set up the steps that need to be taken. For each step there needs to be an objective that should be accomplished and by setting a time-line for when each objective needs to be made by will keep us on track to achieve the goals.

There then has to be a self reflection to summerize what we have learned and done to see if we did in fact accomplish our mission.
