What did you learn from perusing the Blogs of other students participating in Genius Hour/20 Time?
Looking over other students Genius Hour Projects you could see who was involved in theirs and who didn't really care about it. For some it really showed that they were really interested in what they were doing and for others it was obvious that they wish they didn't have to do it at all. I learned how I could incorporate some details into my blog posts and my project. When people really were working on something they enjoyed you could tell it wasn't just to get a good grade. That's what I really think the point of this project is...to do something you enjoy so that when you look back on your high school years you don't just think of it as a time of doing projects that you didn't enjoy.

How can you use what you have learned to impact your own Genius Hour project/ TedTalk?
Looking through numerous Genius Hour projects I found that the ones that were the most interesting were the ones where you could tell they were really interested in what they were doing. The ones that incorporated pictures, graphs, videos and other visuals were the ones I liked the most. You weren't just looking at pages and pages of them talking about there project. I could talk about different things that other students talked about.
