Project description
Should you need to pass citizenship test order to graduate ? Educators say it is only taking a step back by adding this test. It doesn’t make a difference to add another requirement. Those argue that this test doesn’t show a students overall academic worth. My project will highlight why a more fair citizenship test should be the main goal and focus for society. The test shouldn’t be a requirement to be a citizen let alone graduate high school. It is unconventional and has no importance. The questions on the test and the purpose of the test aren’t helpful. The thinking skill to this project was reasoning in which I then came up with my own research based project on why the citizenship test isn't ethical.
History
For my History portion I looked at the reasoning behind the citizenships test. I researched information about why the test was originated. I researched about formed negative ideas towards immigrants in American society. There are a lot of immigration acts and laws that occurred throughout the years. I wanted to look into these acts in history and connect them to the creation of the citizenship test. Should this test determine who can become a citizen of the United states and if having knowledge of US history and the government be a useful requirement to graduate/become a citizen. My goal is to written piece focusing on why a more fair citizenship test should be our focus.
English
For English, I worked on a high school resume in place of the original idea I had for english. Along with writing my own resume, I also will do a college research essay. For this idea I chose between three colleges that piqued my interest. I researched information about these colleges and the programs they each have for what I want to major in. I analyzed how these colleges fit my interests and how they fit in the category of what I want to major in. Along with fitting into my career path I also included how each fitted into my athletic career path as well. I then choose the one that fits me the best to focus my essay on. My reasoning focused on why I decided to do this essay ,why I chose the college I did and how it fits into what I’m looking for.
