Indiana Academy Case Study

I believe that The Indiana Academy would be an appropriate opportunity for me because I feel like I need a challenge. At my current school I am already taking the most difficult classes that are offered, but I never struggle to understand the material. This is in part due to the fact that I am not able to take all the classes I would like to. At my current school, the order in which you can take classes is not determined by which classes you could succeed in, it is determined by what you took last year. This leads to the problem where I feel I could do well more advanced classes, but I am stuck at a lower level until I complete the prerequisites. Also the pace at which my classes go through material is often sluggish. Sometimes we will stretch

The reason that they are above average is that I am able to make a reasonable estimate of time that a certain activity will require, and plan accordingly. I can judge how long I need to do something I will add on some extra time for when I have to go off the plan. Another way in which I manage time well is doing the most important things first. This is also a fail safe for if I happen to misjudge the length of time I need to do something or if I have to stop and do something else that I did not put in my plan. A perfect example of these skills is when I am typing out a paper. I tend to type at a reasonable speed, but I like to go over what I type several times and make changes, so I have to allow for these activities. I will try to type out a paper in segments, splitting it up between days instead of one longer typing session. Another aspect of my time management is that I always am punctual. I would rather be early than be late and I do everything that I can to be on

This map was of early civilizations and their cities. The expectations were to have the oceans colored and labeled and to have every item on a list we were given marked. The map was expected to be the size of a standard sheet of printer paper. When I made my map it was on a sheet of paper that was about the size of three sheets of printer paper. I labeled and colored all major lakes and rivers along with the oceans that were required. In addition to bodies of water, I labeled major deserts, mountains ranges, islands, and some other land forms such as valleys and reefs . I also labeled several items in Austronesia where no items were required. I placed all of the civilizations on the map and drew out borders with a unique color or pattern. For added clarity, I also made a secondary legend for the map with all of the civilization-color pairs
