1.  Describe in detail what you plan to do for your 30 hours.

For my 30 hours I plan to collaborate alongside my mentor. What this entitles is making contributions to the overall design and production of the kid's corner section in the newspaper. To specify, I will undergo extensive research, initiate interviews, type up any documents given as well as my own, and ensure content submitted is eligible for any assigned pages given to me.

2.  Discuss how or what you will do to meet the expectation of showing 30 hours of evidence.

I will document my 30 hours by taking pictures periodically, submitting pdf files and/or attachments of my contributions on the blog, and obtain my mentors signature to signify that I've completed those particular hours within the alotted timeframe.

3.  And explain how what you will be doing will help you explore your topic in more depth.

Since creativity is a key element in the foundation and creation newspaper production, the workflow isn't always consistent. What this means is that due to its fluctuation, I will be able to experience weekly deadlines which in turn ensure writing productivity and will boost my literary skills. In regards to how this will tie into my senior project on the ethics of creative nonfiction, I will be able to adopt techniques and the necessary skills needed for the journalistic aspects of the genre itself.
