• Rough Draft; 10 minute presentation plan

Independent Component #1 Plan Approval

Content: 

1. Write a description of what you plan on doing for your independent study component.

• I have been emailing local wildlife conservation organizations as well as animal shelters. It seems a little too far fetched from my original topic of Wildlife Veterinarian. Most of the programs that would be very beneficial are abroad or require me to be 18 or older. I plan on dedicating a day to visiting local animal clinics and hoping to schedule an interview and shadow a vet. Using my previous experience of animal training and handling.

2. Describe in detail how you think your plan will meet the 30 hours work requirement.

• There will be no problem in me completing my hours. I have previous experience and can dedicate my time in a local shelter or spend some time in a wildlife awareness organizations, though I am keeping my options open. If all goes well, I will hopefully be an understudy of a domesticated veterinarian and learn about treatments, medicine dosages, diagnoses, etc.

3. How does your independent study component relate to your working EQ?

• My independent study will coincide with my working EQ because I will be experiencing and learning all I need to know about animal treatment and care. Whether it's wildlife or not, it's a good start on animal science.
