For my final project I will be doing a video project discussing different angles of the college life while living on campus. I will do a survey to get data on how many students who live on campus think it would be better educational wise if they commuted. I will ask yes or no question that can give me data of what the average Southern Connecticut State University student. I will also get statistics, photos, quotes, and I will also show the differences between the Southern and other university. I would also like to ask some upper classman in what ways did the overcome the many challenges of being a freshman college student .Through this video I would like to see what are other college student’s perspectives of the on campus life style. I would also like to see if there is anything that Southern Connecticut State University students would like to change about the on campus living.
- Does everyone feel safe living on campus?
- Do you enjoy being a resident on campus?
- What resources do you use the most?
o The health center
o The fitness center
o The disability resource center
o The counseling center
o The learning and writing center
o Other…
- Would your grades be better living at home instead of on campus?
- Would you like to commute next year?
These questions can be very informative about the on campus lifestyle. I am excited to see the results and know what others opinions on this topic are.
Paige, be careful of doing too much. Your description of the project mentions a number of different topics. What I see in the outline is narrowed down more (for example, I don't see in the outline your idea about comparing Southern to other colleges which I think is too much). I think you should stick with the main idea of whether one can live on campus and still do well academically. There are obstacles which I'm sure you'll present, and the option of commuting, and there are strategies to make the best of it. You can include all of that in your video. The campus resources you talk about are important to college success whether as a commuter or resident. They might fall under the strategies section. I'd like to talk more about your outline in office hours next week. Can you email me or talk to me in class to make an appointment? Thanks.
