In this project, we explored how proteins are made through examining specific proteins. Our group's protein was insulin, which is esspecially interesting because it can be made artificially, but is also naturally produced by the pancreas. Our group decided to present our protein, and what we had learned about DNA, RNA and protein synthesis in a jeopardy game because we thought that it would be more fun and accessible to the class that way. However, in doing so, we came across many struggles. Our research on certain questions was not as extensive as some of our classmates, and so it proved to be harder than we had expected to get simple,clear-cut, right or wrong questions. Another problem that we hadn't foreseen was the class's level of focus. Our class was interested in our game, but every answer and question brought up conversations that lasted two or three minutes. This caused another problem: timing. We simply didn't have enough time in the period to be able to present all of our jeopardy questions, which as a pesenter and someone who had spent days working on this project, was very frustrating. However, this gave me a new appreciation for teachers and all they do to make class exciting, educational, and eficient. I also learned to try to foresee problems that may occur and come up with plausible solutions. This has already aided me in everyday life and also in debate. This project was interesting and fun because we could present our information in any way that we wanted. However, it was difficult because we had to discover all the necessary information ourselves. I found that I really appreciated having the base information given to me and expanding my knowledge on it, rather than needing to learn something completely new while trying to do a project. However, this struggle also helped me learn how to manage my time during projects better and be more confident in asking my teacher clarifying questions about the content which will help me later in life. In college especcially, I will need to take the initiative to talk to my professors if I am confused, rather than being held back by my timidness and fear of sounding stupid. I also learned during this project that I need to work on learning to properly communicate what I am trying to ask. I have found that though I seem to be very articulate during debate and when I am writing, I actually am not very good at explaining what I am confused about and what I am asking in person. Developing this skill more will come in handy both in college, my future career, and also in everyday life.
