1. What is your EQ?
What is the best way a Judoka can use Judo on and off the mat?
2. What is your first answer? (In complete thesis statement format)
A Judoka will be able to use any and all principles of Judo and training in a tournament, as well as outside of the dojo.
3. What is your second answer? (In complete thesis statement format)
A Judoka can use lessons and skills learned inside of the dojo to communicate and network with people outside of the dojo as well as being able to utilize skills of people inside and outside the dojo.
4. List three reasons your answer is true with a real-world application for each.
My question is asking about how Judo can be used in the "REAL WORLD".
5. What printed source best supports your answer?
my interviews as well as a presentation that my sensei had showed me that he did.
6. What other source supports your answer?
Certain websites and blogs that are individual and tell a story of a Judoka that really has used Judo inside and outside of the dojo.
7. Tie this together with a concluding thought.
My first two ancwers to my EQ; ability to use principles of the tournament inside and outside of the dojo as well as skills learned inside the dojo, utilizing them by being able to network outside the dojo. These two answers have brought very different aspects of Judo together being able to use them outside the dojo. My interviews and many of my research shows clues of working with Judo inside and outside the dojo.

Blog 15: Independent Component 2 Approval
1. For my 30 hours I plan to visit different clubs to explore the aspect of using networking with different clubs and people. Discovering how the use of Judo can be used to network. I will try to work closer with each of my Senseis along with my coach and see how I cn network with people through Judo.
2. I will be going to other clubs, visiting and working with as many people independently as I can. Seeing how I can utilize their knowledge inside and outside of the dojo. This would mean working with Judokas inside the dojo on various technique as well as outside the dojo with as many talents I could help/use. Though this I'm sure I will become much closer to many of the judokas that I generally just associate with.
3. Explain how this component will help you explore your topic in more depth.
It will allow me to find specific examples where I can utilize talents inside and outside of the dojo, while using Judo. Showing the Judo is a great way to network.
4. Post a log in your Senior Project Hours link and label it "Independent Component 2" log.

INTERPRETIVE
The initial clinic was an all day thing. Starting in the early morning and ending in the afternoon. Jovanny was explaining each of the rules and the use of them, while head referee Dan Takamoto and president of the USJA Gary Goltz pitched in their experiences and how they have seen the rules being used.
This demonstrates the time I took out to go to individual clubs to recruit players for the Winter Nationals. During Winter nationals, truly an all day event I was tasked to be a referee, being compared to the national referees being tested.
APPLIED
APPLIED
The component helped me understand the way each competitor is "suppose" to play in Judo. There is truly a difference between learning tournament Judo and Judo in the dojo. Becoming a referee allows me to understand those points a little more and use these to my advantage. Visiting different dojos I was able to see how each of them prepare for Winter nationals, working in "tournament Judo". I was also able use the rules I learned while in the referee clinic to train by in preparation for the tournament.

Lesson 2 Reflection
Due Date: The day after your lesson presentation by 8:00 A.M.
Content:
1.What are you most proud of in your Lesson 2 Presentation and why?
I am most proud of my activity went fluently even though I could not do my demonstration with my broken foot. Most of the commendations that I recieved from my fellow classmates, liked my activity, with the demonstration could only make it better.
2. a. What assessment would you give yourself on your Lesson 2 Presentation (self-assessment)?
AE-/ P+
b. Explain why you deserve that grade using evidence from the Lesson 2 component contract.
I deserve an AE-/P+, is due to the fact I feel I covered all the P considerations on the component contract. The audience was clearly engaged in my presentation, as I did not see many people on their phone; texting, playing games, not paying attention, also receiving commentary back that my volume and the way I communicated to the audience was very clear. Not only was I professional attire but I was in a GI (whats worn in Judo), which was my prop, my powerpoint was everything that was required to cover in the contract and then some. My activity directly referred to my published research, one of my published research (Senior Handbook) that had extended detail on throws that I used in the Activity. The time allotted for my debrief was taken up by the fact I had such a trouble getting the students to stay focused, which I attribute to not being able to do my demonstration which would have held their focus a bit more.
3. What worked for you in your Lesson 2?
In my lesson 2 the way I put the PowerPoint together was very good,the system I used did not allow me to put a lot of words, therefore I was pushed to use key words to provide a throw explination. As well as make use of the pictures I had for a backround.
4. What didn't work? If you had a time machine, what would you have done differently to improve your Lesson 2?
Well, if I had a time machine I would go farther back than just my presentation to when I broke the two bones in my foot and not break them, allowing me to do the demonstration. Also put my resources on the board so I could remember to refur back to them.
5. What do you think your answer #2 is going to be?
The answer 2 to my essential question will have to do with the ability to use judo in a way of networking inside and outside the dojo.

Extra Blog Post: Janurary
This month I was able to get back to training in preparation for the upcoming tournaments. I was able to work with my coach, Arvin. Thankyou for being there for me, no matter the condition. You were there and worked with me to get a real learning experience at the tournament last week. It's great you were able to teach me so much standing technique and ground work in such short of time! This was a big help to my senior project. It taught me dedication and another form of Judo off of the mat. Teaching me confidence and demonstrating motivation. You told me; I was going to see results and I more than did!

Blog 11: Holiday Project Update
Content:
1. It is important to consistently work on your senior project, whether it is break or we are in school. What did you do over the break with your senior project?
Over the break I was able to find some new places on the internet to do research on Judo for my research Checks. I was also able to find an alternet dojo to work with, Jovany Valeria's Jiu-Jitsu club. Though it is not Judo there is a lot of comparison to be made.
2. What was the most important thing you learned from what you did, and why? What was the source of what you learned?
I learned that Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, derived from Judo, has a lot of closely related techniques and methods to it. Though it focuses mainly on the ground, where as Judo focuses on techniques on the ground and standing.
3. If you were going to do a 10 question interview on questions related to answers for your EQ, who would you talk to and why?
I would talk to my Sensei Gary Goltz, because he is a seventh dan in Judo and is very knowledgeable in Judo as well as the USJA (United States Judo Association) President. He is very good with words and would be able to help me word and ask the right things having to do with Judo.
