Don't wait until the last second to turn stuff in. | Text | Document | Languages | Language Arts | I basically talk about how I went from being a depressed kid who's father has been in prison for most of their life. To learning different languages and going out of the country really changing my life for the better. Growing up, I was a real odd ball and didn't know why. When I started to learn ASL | The impact of learning other languages. | Originally I wanted to just talk about how I learned ASL. And essentially just my opinion about learning different languages. | I went from talking about my path from learning ASL to talking about my childhood and learning three different languages. | I learned how to manage time better and how to not wait until the end to do my project. | Hello, my name is Emily Malone. For my capstone I'm going to be talking about how learning different languages changed my life for the better and how it has changed my career path.
Over the last four years I have been learning three different languages: French, Spanish, and ASL. I believe that the most influential language that I have been learning is ASL. Growing up I always believed that I was different from other kids my age. Though it didn't phase me, a huge thing that was different was that everyone had a father who was there for them everyday. My dad has been going in and out of prison since I was five years old. I have always felt out of place with some of my friends never really knowing why. Nor did I know how to fulfill the empty space I felt. My sophomore year I started to take French. It was a little bit hard for me to learn French, it still gave me a sense of relief. Going to France that summer really opened my eyes to what life could be like when I learn more than just French. Our group stayed with pen pals that we had been writing to all year. Some of our pen pals learned a lot of English phrases. Some of them were fluent in Spanish and English as well as French. And that is when my eyes opened up to the opportunity of speaking other languages. A huge help for me learning a new language was an app called “Duolingo." It is an app that teaches you the general basics of a language. It has about 35 different languages on it, from French to Turkish to Navajo to Arabic to Romanian. Madame Doss recommended this app to me a couple of months before we went to France and I have been using it ever since. It's really fun to use. and really easy. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to learn another language. Now it's two years later and I am almost completely fluent in American sign language (ASL). I have continued learning French and Spanish. Ever since I have become fluent in ASL I have seen the impact it has had on my life and on others as well. At my work I have seen people with many different backgrounds come into my store—people from places like France, Spain, Scotland, Ireland, and many other countries. I hope to learn more languages over the next several years. My plan is to become fluent in at least five languages by the time I am 36. Being able to learn different languages has been really interesting for so far. In the future I plan on expanding my knowledge of other languages so that when I join the military I can become a translator. Growing up I always wanted to become a doctor like the ones in Grey’s Anatomy. I always wanted to go into the military as well, but ever since I started learning new languages I have wanted to become a translator. Whether I am a translator or a medic, I think it would really be cool to change the world. I have been through a lot. But I don't believe at all that this is close to the end. Because of the stuff that I have been through and what I have witnessed as a child I plan on being something apart from being “another statistic,” or being tied down by the choices of my parents over the years. I don’t want to live with a cloud hanging over me. Over the years I have chosen to lead my life down a path of darkness, pain and despair, because of my dad being a drug addict and being in prison for most of my life, and my mom was always working. Growing up I was always in a pit of anger, or in a place where I have always been angry, depressed, or felt some sort of self-pity. Sometimes all three. But since I have experienced things like going to France. Or coming to TSAS. Or simply learning a new language. I have found myself able to enjoy life’s many blessings. Like enjoying family night with my siblings and my mom. Enjoying the time I have with my older brother, John, whenever he is home from the Navy. And spending time with my little sister that I do not see that often anymore do to the Pandemic going on currently. The thing is, I am trying to change my life. Like I have said earlier I don’t plan on being just “another statistic.” If I end up being just a statistic, then I want to be a statistic that helps change the world. |

Capstone:Robi Pineda's Portfolio (edit) | Robi Pineda | Pineda | 2,021 | Fine Arts | Make sure to have constant communication with your Capstone teacher when it comes to your project. If you're struggling, don't be afraid to reach out to them. | Portfolio | Photo, Portfolio | Art | Visual Arts | My project is me taking art that I've done in the past and presenting it as a portfolio. It's multimedia, meaning it consists of different mediums from collages, 3D, and printmaking. I want to showcase work that I'm proud and hopefully others will enjoy. | Multimedia Portfolio | I originally was just going to focus on printmaking but that obviously changed as my Capstone project is now multimedia. | I wouldn't say I necessarily completely changed my Capstone project, as I more or less made it where it could be inclusive of my other bodies of work. Because while printmaking is part of my art, it's only one facet of it and I didn't just want to only showcase that. | This was a good learning experience in terms of what it's like to build a portfolio for your art work. | • • • • | Kelly Foshee | ||||||||

She was a Mexican American artist in the late 80s to mid 90s. I used acrylic paint and a white canvas.

I used acrylic paint and colors such as purple,white,black | Portrait of Selena | I started with this project and never changed my mind on what I wanted to do. | First I wanted to draw her out with a pencil then paint everything else | I learned that there are different t kinds of paints like acrylic or watercolor and it really takes time. | Angela Hudson | ||||||||

I had talks with Karner and Foshee about how I could make this project better. They asked why I was tracing instead of drawing it myself. I took a couple of days to process that as well. Why was I doing that? It always felt like I was a fake ever | I learned to stay true to my style and trust the process.

Capstone:Snippets and Stories (edit) | Jacob Pester | Pester | 2,021 | Liberal Arts | OSU • Zoology | Hopefully society will have kicked back on by the time they have to worry about this project, so my advice is to make it about something that interests you, and hopefully it will give you a head start on whatever it is you want to pursue after graduation. | Performance | Podcast | Language Arts | My project is basically a short podcast where I talk about things I like about videogame stories in particular. I talk about theories, my favorite things about them, basically my opinions.

Capstone:Social Media And The Effects It Has On Us (edit) | Ashley Davis | Davis | 2,020 | Liberal Arts | Gap year | Presentation | Slide Show | Social media | History and Social Studies | My project is basically talking about how social media changes our brains and how we deal with those changes. It talks about many statistics and studies that scientists and universities have done on the brain itself. | Presentation on the effects of social media | I described it the same: how social media effects a person and how it changes your mind. | I had to change my Capstone some. I was going to interview people about how social media effects them specifically, but that obviously wasn’t able to happen. | I’m glad that I did something I was genuinely interested in. I use social media frequently so I was curious about the studies done on it. | 1pqIPjzT9Rl_GzruNFbivBj84OzciEIKu1PQZoa6cWQw | Victoria Murphy | ||||||||

I used nine different colors to try and at least make it colorful as possible. The blanket is not really big it's great for when your a little cold at night and great for going on Picnics when the sun is out. | Arm Knitted Blanket | I just wanted to create a quilt any size with lots of different colors. It was just going to be a nice colorful quilt and give it to someone who needed it on a bad day. | I actually didn't make a quilt I made a blanket a quilt was way harder for me to make. I honestly didn't change much of my capstone I knew what I wanted which was something colorful which I did do besides it's a Blanket and not a quilt but in some ways it could have been better from my perspective. | I learned to stay consistent on a deadline because I kind of rushed at the end and didn't realize I was knitting it on the wrong side so at the end of the blanket it's not straight. If we started in person learning I would've done better because I would have been more focused. | 1_2mhSzcqKRBLyMYnAY6V6dkALoakAXzO4JWJlu1_78g | Angela Hudson | |||||||

There were many times I forgot I was working for a grade and I just enjoyed what I was doing, so it still turned out great. | Portfolio | Mixed media art, Sewing, Resin | Visual Arts | My capstone is based on the concept of seeing something you like, thinking "I can make/do that, too," and learning how to do it without spending much money. For this project I focused on resin, sewing, and propmaking (for cosplay). | Learning various new artistic skills | I originally described it as a furthering of talents I already had — learning composition for drawings and paintings, making my own molds and designing my own resin pieces, and learning how to sew better (I had basic knowledge before). | I took away the composition stuff because I found the resin aspect to be way more fun.
