Project Idea Generators


Yesterday, many students were seeing their sponsors, and this made me glad. Those of us remaining in the class started brainstorming about the project component of Senior Project Seminar.

Miss Messner admitted that while autism still interests her, she's finding that her heart is increasingly with the public relations field. The students recommended that she approach Bancroft about how she can educate others about autism, and perhaps generate positive press for Bancroft. Perhaps she'll create PR items. Fliers? Video?

Mr. Gonzalez, who constantly thinks about cooking and restaurants, at first said that he could create a business plan for the restaurant he will one day open, along with a menu. The group convinced him to K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple S______) and stick with the menu, and some students gave him great suggestions about layout, content, and format.

Miss Sotelo mentioned to me that she'll create a book of composed of the personal stories of immigrants who strive for and achieve success in America.

Mr. Pineiro will use CAD to create a blueprint of a playground, taking into account drainage, and he'll complement it will a scale model.

Miss Palermo seems to be leaning towards creating clay representations that represent various facets of physical therapy. It will be a teaching tool along with being well labeled.

Miss Wilson is staging a fashion show which will fuse her creative, custom-made outfits with dance.
Miss Scotten will compose a newspaper article about what happens during prom weekend after the prom. One student suggested that she create a survey. Already, Miss Scotten has contacted different schools to get some comparisons in the works!
