Blog 2: Zombie Survival

A. My senior topic is Zombie Survival. I chose this topic because I believe that survival is an important thing we all should learn about and also because I am a huge fan of zombies. I thought it'd be interesting to make my senior project about survival and incorporating zombies, which could be used as an attention-grabber for my audience. With this topic I could also have a reason to study neuroscience and anything that has to do with diseases that are close to zombieism.

B. I hope to accomplish these things:

• As an effective learner, I plan to teach my fellow peers what I know about the diseases that closely relate to becoming "zombie-like" and how to overcome it or prepare for such a global disaster in which an infection has become extremely contagious. 
• As an effective user of technology, I plan to pick up skills in using certain gadgets that experts in the neuroscience field use that will come in handy in future studies.
• As an iPoly Citizen, I plan to spread the teachings of survival to other students and teach why it is important to prepare for a disaster due to the possible outcomes of it. 
• As an effective communicator, I plan to connect with experts in the fields that fit well with my senior topic so that I could get a better experience and understanding in what is required in order to survive a Zombie apocalypse. I also plan to give my mentors all of my attention to show them that I am truly interested in learning about their profession and to take note of what is important to know.
