Extra Blog Post: November

After the past couple months of working or reading out of books for research I wanted to change it up. I realized that using these videos that I linked would be very useful. The funny thing is that when I am bored and have nothing to do I can watch these videos for hours because I find them very interesting. It is also very effective because most people do have different techniques and different products they use so I learn about how versatile I am able to be while doing makeup. Meanwhile doing makeup there are many different things to consider before just applying 5 more or less products to someone face.

These are just a couple of things to ask yourself or consider.

•  Skin Type
• Oily
• Dry
• Normal
• Combination (T Zone)

• Skin discoloration
• Ance
• Rosacea
• Dark circles(Yellow or purple)

• Weather
• Cold
• Hummid
• Raining

Blog 10: EQ

1. I reviewed the rule of three for writing an EQ.


Essential Question

Once a topic is chosen, the student will develop a working essential question. The purpose of the working essential question is to help the student build a strong foundation of research which will allow him or her to create an essential question that encourages depth and rigor in the chosen topic.

An essential question must:



Provide a framework for studies (It calls for breadth and depth of research, Is not a yes/no question)
Take a stance (It allows you to argue some point, Cannot be a recitation of facts or a list)
Format (It is specific, The wording makes sense)

2. Review the following EQs
Tell us if each meets the rule of three.
Tell why they do or don't.

a. What is the most important factor in healthy weight loss?

Framework: Not a yes or no question. Provides framework for research.

Stance: It allows for an argument.

Format: It is specific and makes sense.
b. What is most important to securing a conviction in a criminal investigation?

Framework: Not a yes or no question. Provides framework for research.

Stance: I feel as if there is no room for argument.

Format: The wording is a bit different.
c. What is most important in creating a hairstyle that best satisfies a customer?

Framework: The satisfaction of a consumer is opinionated. Research may be difficult but is possible if taking the right steps.

Stance: There is not much room for an argument. Might be hard to argue the satisfaction of the consumer.

Format: The questions does make sense. The wording is fine.
d. How can an anesthesiologist best treat chronic pain?

Framework: Not a yes or no question. Provides framework for research.

Stance: It allows for an argument.

Format: It is specific and makes sense.

3. Based on your review of the rule of 3 and your experience with assessing four EQs, please write another draft EQ for your senior project.
What is the most important factors in creating a make-up look?
What can a make-up artist provide to attract clientele?
What is the most efficient way to apply make-up?

*I do need help in altering my essential question. I have acouple of different ideas for essential questions but I am sure that I want to go more towards the techniques that are needing in creating a makeup look.*

Blog 9: Lesson 1 Reflection

1. Positive Statement


What are you most proud of in your Lesson 1 Presentation and why?


I am most proud of how comfortable I was while presenting. My whole presentation flowed really well and I knew in detail about what I was talking about.


2. Questions to Consider
a. What assessment would you give yourself on your Lesson 1 Presentation (self-assessment)?


I would give myself a P on the lesson plan.

b. Explain why you deserve that grade using evidence from the Lesson 1 component contract.


I deserve that grade because I met all the requirements on the contract.


3. What worked for you in your Lesson 1?

What worked for me in my opinion would have to be going through with technology and making a presentation. This really worked well for me because my topic requires you to look at pictures while being told the explanation in order to comprehend how to do a certain tactic. For example how to apply brow product onto the brows or where are the correct places for highlight or contour.



4. (What didn't work) If you had a time machine, what would you have done differently to improve your Lesson 1?


Even though my hook did work out well I would have liked to hang it. I feel like it didn't grab everyone's attention. I would've chosen a hook like activity where everyone could participate.
