We could also brainstorm questions to ask, and graph things like what the most commonly researched major was, etc.

This might be able to relate to our futurism project. ]]> 2017-01-12 17:10:22 UTC https://padlet.com/courtneyctodd/hevdq8zsy15u/wish/146851779 https://padlet.com/courtneyctodd/hevdq8zsy15u/wish/146851820 https://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=Field+Trips&find_loc=Dallas%2C+TX 
Best Field Trips in Dallas]]> 2017-01-12 17:10:29 UTC https://padlet.com/courtneyctodd/hevdq8zsy15u/wish/146851820 https://padlet.com/courtneyctodd/hevdq8zsy15u/wish/146851913 Overarching Questions to Ask:
Where they came from
Why they came to this area
What influenced their occupation
Plans for the future
Major life decisions
Causes and Effects of these decisions]]> 2017-01-12 17:10:44 UTC https://padlet.com/courtneyctodd/hevdq8zsy15u/wish/146851913 https://padlet.com/courtneyctodd/hevdq8zsy15u/wish/146852041 I think it would be tons of fun if we spent time learning about careers or/and major and where they can take us in life. If we could walk around different areas and see what kind of people are there and why they chose the career they are currently in.]]> 2017-01-12 17:11:04 UTC https://padlet.com/courtneyctodd/hevdq8zsy15u/wish/146852041 https://padlet.com/courtneyctodd/hevdq8zsy15u/wish/146852190 I think we should go along the lines of interviewing people. We can use the data from the questions we ask and related them to some of the books that we have read.
Something else that might be fun would be the Old Red Museum in Downtown Dallas, which is actually the old Dallas County Courthouse. It has some exhibits about the turning point in history, such as the first women jurors. This would go along the lines of The Great Gatsby, with how much change happened.]]> 2017-01-12 17:11:29 UTC https://padlet.com/courtneyctodd/hevdq8zsy15u/wish/146852190 https://padlet.com/courtneyctodd/hevdq8zsy15u/wish/146852734 I think we could also go to Dallas but instead of interviewing based on jobs I think we could have a little more freedom with what we do. So it would be job themed but you could interview people or take pictures and just tie it into your own individual project about what you want your career to be. Also we could like use our Fed Ex days to work on like different parts of the project and our fiekd trip would be the creative culmination]]> 2017-01-12 17:12:43 UTC https://padlet.com/courtneyctodd/hevdq8zsy15u/wish/146852734 courtneyctodd https://padlet.com/courtneyctodd/hevdq8zsy15u/wish/146854055 GT ICONS
