Now, I am starting my proposal while still looking for more sources and creating new questions. I have completed a version of my webliography and questions so now I need to find out what I want to accomplish at the end of my project and work backwards essentially.

I came up with the idea that during parent teacher conferences or during orientations, City High's National Honors Society could take parents around the school and answer their questions or be there to give tours or anything like that.

What I have so far:
  1. My topic
  2. Eleven key terms
  3. Five sources
  4. Seven questions

Today I got really confused about my webliography. I thought that we were supposed to write summaries on the articles once we first found them, not once we have found all of our sites we want to use. I wasted a bunch of time today apparently.

Today I decided to change my topic back to the National Honors Society.
I also created some questions:
  1. How can I convey information to the current tenth graders about NHS?
  2. What are the requirements?
  3. When should I talk to current tenth graders?
  4. How can I make a website about NHS at City High?
  5. What should be on the website?
  6. How are we going to publicize?
  7. What activities could be planned for NHS?

In the beginning of class I looked at the National Honors Society website and found some terms. In addition, I also found more websites that could be beneficial to me later on when working on the project.

So I finally decided on a topic. Since I love photography, and I love to photograph old buildings, I am going to compare old and historical buildings in Pittsburgh and fidn out what makes them historical. Then, I will take pictures of them. Hopefully, I will not change my topic again.
