20 time progress

So far my partners and I have been making progress in regards to finding places to eat/visit. Currently we have a list of places we have started to form that we have liked, a couple including the places we ate before the recent WPA dance. Before the dance my friends and I ate at Olive Garden, which is personally one of my favorites and I would recommend. Olive garden has good food and service for a fair price, I think it’s the perfect place to have a formal or even informal meal. My partners have also shared their dining experience before the dance and we agreed that both places should be put on the list because they were both enjoyable and good places to go especially before a formal occasion. We have also gone through our list and narrowed it down to the places we like best and would like to share more than others.

  • What does Iowa have to offer?
  • What are the best places to check out?

20 time preparation

To begin preparing for my 20 time project I brainstormed different ideas that I could potentially pursue, along with writing a paragraph proposal on one of them that I was highly considering. In class we had time to work shop each other's proposals by writing our personal opinions and adding positive or helpful feedback, because of that I got a lot of really good information and ideas. I also established a group of people I could create my project with and talked with them about different things we could try out. I took some time on the computers to look up different activities and popular places to visit around town. I had the opportunity to get a better understanding about the different things Cedar Rapids has offer, along with some of the other neighboring cities. I got the chance to narrow down some of my other ideas to one that I ultimately liked best and began thinking of different ways me and my group members could carry out our research and presentation.
