My final thoughts
I faced some challenges in this project. One was being able to connect to ThinkQuest because there is no internet in my house. My team Planet Keepers and my coach helped me out in everything.
I learned that I could make a change in people by talking to them about our planet and educating myself and others. The world is not what makes the difference; it’s the people who live in it. This topic is really interesting and it made me realize that there are so many beautiful places in the world, but at the same time we are damaging those places.
The ThinkQuest site is very cool and a great tool because we get to meet other students from around the world, interact with them and be safe doing it.

My thoughts
I liked this project very much even though I wish I could have done more. It was interesting and challenging for me because in my house there was a laptop I wasn’t allowed to use and didn’t have much support from my mother. I also live far from the school, about seven or eights miles, and that made it difficult for me to meet with my teammates after school hours. I did have to stay over in my cousin’s house to be able to use the internet and my teacher lent her laptop for me to be able to put together and edit the video clips. I loved the field trips because I learned new things and visited new places. It was always fun to be all together in my teacher’s car.
At first, I found the ThinkQuest tools a little difficult to understand, but the more I wrote the easier it got. I learned to be patient and that if we don’t stop polluting the world; it would have a very ugly ending for all creatures that inhabit the world, and that includes us.

What if?
If you had the chance, once again to do this project would you change the topic or choose the same topic over again?Why?
Positions:
Choose the same topic (2)
Choose another topic (3)
- Choose another topic
I'm involved in so many things, that I would like to learn more about everything. I love music, science, and sports.
May. 12, 2009
Choose another topicThere are more topics that I would like to learn about. A great topic to learn about could be music since I am a musician.
May. 12, 2009
Choose the same topicThere is always new information coming out and protecting the world is a good thing to do. We can’t stop and we should continue on this mission.
May. 12, 2009
Choose the same topicI love music, but I'm going to keep learning about this topic.

My final thoughts
Well while I was working on this project I learned how to work in a team where not everyone is responsible and how to give the best of myself and try to do my job no matter if the others aren't there. That was kind of a challenge for me, but I love challenges because I trust in myself and I know I can do anything I propose. So even though it was a little difficult work with my team, because some were busy with other projects or live too far away, we did an awesome job together and I love them so much.
I learn that I am good at keeping the world clean and talking to others about things I like and I'm doing.
I also learn so much about our planet and our resources. How we can take care of them daily and what are we doing everyday that is contaminating and destroying the world.
I learn to use movie maker better and thinkquest tools.
I love thinkquest, I didn't know about this page until now and I think it is a great key to learning and to meet people and learn about other places in the world.
I like about my project almost everything. I love when we all get together and go to places, and then we all went to eat together and have so much fun.
As I say at the beggining I dind't like when we were going to clean or do something together as a group but not all the members were there.
But any way I really enjoy this project and have really nice time with my team. I know we are doing the right thing and this is not the end of us we are going to keep this commitment with our world and with ourselves forever until the day we die.

Final thought!
To be honest when I started on this project I knew it was going to be a challenge. I mean juggling school, choirs, the band, homework and even my personal life with this project was hard but really worth it. I had these challenges all piled up so I decided to resolve it by dividing them into different hours of the day. So far what I've learned about myself is that I should face matters with a more optimistic point of view. While exploring this topic I've learned history about our small town, greenhouses,eco-friendly roofs and even about deforestation and its devastating effects on the land and animal life. Also that one person can make a difference in their community and society.
I used a lot of computer skills and even camaras for this project on Thinkquest. What I really loved about Thinkquest and this project is that we could show the world our ideas and comments over a topic we can all connect to because it really is happening all around our world. Sometimes I didn't like that we had to wake up early to go on a Field trip but at the end of the day it really was worth it. What I mean and all that I've learned from this project is that even if we finished on Thinkquest, the thing is that to me this project is never really finished because it's our job to show our society that one person can make a diffrence. When we are united as one we can change our world and maintain all of our natural wonders clean from being polluted forever!

My final thought or not?
While working on this project we came over a verity of situations some of them were that when we had a trip and not all of the members we're together another that it was always raining. But as they say if you really want something you have to go for it! We we're alble to confront these little problems and make the best out of it.
As I was working I learned alot about myself like I really like to clean the planet and I love helping people realize that our planet is important and I've learned to be confident and have faith in myself. About this Topic I've learned that the world is suffering and that it's up to us to help and protect it because Planet Earth is our home and it's our job to keep it clean!
Here we use computers and digital cameras to have evidence because we can't talk without it, because it would be madness and it was a great experience. I really can't say that didn't like this project, because it would be a lie and I can't lie but the only thing i didn't like was watching people making our world suffer but then again, I loved the project and I enjoyed working with my fellow friends!!!!
I am going to keep working on this because it's an important investigation, because we can see what our planet is suffering of. And I going to take my chances because I want to help my planet because it comes to my mind that we are supposed to make our planet a better place for everyone, not just for us, but for our animals and even for our future children so they can live in a nice and secured and anti-polluted world. I have made my choice becaus I love my planet and we can't destroy what God put in our hands to save and protect.
