Always go for what you’ve always felt attached to or engaged with; show others your creative side.
·
Be kind to others. Be kind to your peers, to your teachers, to your family. Kindness is making the choice to be generous with people who deserve it, and sometimes, people who don't. If you need help, reach out to your teachers. They will absolutely help you with what you need! Don't procrastinate an
·
Be prepared for anything and no matter the lack of motivation, there is always something to look forward to.
·
Be your own best friend.
·
Can't really give advice! All I can say is plan ahead and plan early.
·
Capstone can seem really overwhelming at first, but it's really what you make and take away from it. It is a great way to show your creativity and teach others about something you learned. Definitely start brainstorming ideas because your capstone might change from what you initially thought it woul
·
Capstone isn’t that difficult, choose something you’re interested in it will make it easier!
·
Choose something that interests you, something you're passionate about. Don't choose a project because you think it will be easy, choose one that you will benefit and intrigue you. Stand out, be unique, and have fun with it.
·
Determination and being honest with yourself is key—don't sign yourself up for a project that's too much to handle no matter how ideal it sounds. Choose one you won't grow tired of and can stay dedicated to through and through.
·
Do it as fast as you can because you can’t predict what can happen.
· Do it. ·
Do not procrastinate. No matter how much you want to, don't do it. Because you're going to regret it. Ask your teachers for help because I promise you they want to help, and they want you to succeed.
·
Do what interests you, even if it has nothing to do with your House.
·
Do what you love and know.
·
Don't be too hard on yourself. If you don't meet your own expectations, or anyone else's, that isn't necessarily the worst thing in the world. Room for improvement is just that. You do what you can do, and you keep going. If someone else is accomplishing a lot, but you can't do as much, that doesn't
·
Don't do what I did, it did not work out lmao.
·
Don't get to attached to your first idea, because it's going to change and one thing I had to let go, well try to let go, was my need to have everything be perfect, because it won't be perfect but you have to still do it and can't give up.
·
Don't miss out on opportunities that I wish I have taken more advantage of. I hope by seeing all the seniors' presentations you are inspired to know what you want to do for your career.
·
Don't rush your Senior year! I was so excited for Senior year to start so that I could be done with high school. When my last year ended abruptly due to Covid-19 I realized that I wasn't ready for it to be over. I yearned to walk down the halls one last time. So, enjoy your last year in high schoo
Other values:
Don't stress too much
Don’t procrastinate!!! That was the biggest struggle for me was actually sitting down and doing the work. Also my capstone ended up changing multiple times and that’s okay. Not everything will work and all you can really do is try something else.
Find something you care about and see where it takes you.
Go to Tulsa Tech, that’s it. You always have a head start, or even it you don’t want to do it you will have a skill or trade to fall back on.
HAVE A BACKUP PLAN!! And a backup plan for that. But remember there is a such thing as too safe. Let loose but be prepared for failures and lessons.
Have fun in your capstone class but don't forget to actually do your work, and do your artifacts they will help more than you think!
Honestly, don’t take school as a joke, as much as high school is an incredible experience and such a time to be alive (you know, like the “young wild and free” quote). But please remember this a time to also represent yourself and who you are wanting to become. I know it’s silly coming from
I think that really making it about something you're already passionate about is super important. It's only as much extra work as you make it really. My paper is fairly concise but it's the accumulation of work I've been doing for a long time. Don't write it off immediately and finish it in the end,
I want to tell all the rising seniors to strive for what you want in life and don't give up because God has a plan for everyone have faith.
If anybody wants to do a virtual prom that would be cool—class of 2020 is not over yet! Keep your head up high and....WASH YO HANDS!!!!
If it's hard, the reward is more fulfilling. If you have a skill or talent, pursue it, don't wait for tomorrow or next week. All the time you have is now. Years from now when you see your practice pay off is when you truly appreciate practice.
If you're doing darkroom photography, don't give up. The stress and the aggravation is worth it. If you have given photography, especially film, a try and didn't like it—that's okay!
If your ever think about spray painting, only spray paint that which is your property. Never go around places and spray paint anything that you think will be cool/funny/a good way to get revenge. Never play around.
It's 100% okay to change your mind. And not know what you're going to do at first. I was super nervous about it and had no idea what to do. Just try some things out!
It's a little bit overwhelming, but the finished product makes everything worth it.
Make a plan at the beginning of the year, see if it is possible or acceptable, see how everything is going to work, and give it your best.
Make sure you plan out your capstone well, and set your goals reasonably accounting for personal work ethic.
My advice for the next seniors. . . hmmmm. Capstone-wise, choose something that challenges you but it also excites you. It is supposed to be something that connects to what you want to do in the future so it should be something you enjoy. For just senior year in general, enjoy the moments you have
Pick something you love doing, but maybe something you don't know much about. Then you'll be able to have your school project and also have fun while doing it. 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.
Pick something you love. You will be spending a lot of time at this location and it is more enjoyable if you love it.
Plan what you want to do. I have friends who are astounding in their fields and can easily create a project. They know how to do research and can acquire the skills needed to complete whatever they want. If this is not true to you, TSAS has a wonderful and talented staff willing to help you. The und
Respect your teachers, and ALL faculty! Don't vape in the bathrooms and set a good example for the classes below you. And most of all, HAVE FUN NEXT YEAR and live it up. Don't overthink the Senior Capstone, it is a great opportunity to share your voice before you head to college, and for you to do s
Start at the beginning of the year.
Start early and gradually work on it.
Start it early.
Start your capstone early in the year, be brave, and have confidence. When you enter a room, demand attention with your presence. Be the best you, you can be!
Stay true to you. What you love doing can be your Capstone and just trust the process.
Stick to what you enjoy, otherwise you'll never get it done.
Take as many notes as possible and stay organized.
There are going to be moments of frustration with essentially any project you attempt; don't let those moments prevent you from finding solutions and making progress on your work. Additionally, while you are first trying to land on a project idea, try to ensure that you are working on something that
Think of some ideas during your junior year. Start narrowing down during the summer. Also: just do it, complain all you want but don’t give your teachers a hard time lol. They don’t get paid enough...
Turn in your artifacts! They seem stupid but you will forget all of the cool stuff you have done for your project.
USE YOUR TIME WISELY! No matter how easy you think your project is, it's better to have extra time at the end instead of waiting until last second.
We’re told as seniors to get our “money up” but we’re not told don’t forget you have to feel and look good while doing it.
When you get an idea, make sure it's you—that it has a meaning to you—and make sure the people that see it know that is what you want to do in the future.
While you should have everything for the most part planned, don't go into it thinking too much and have your expectations for yourself too high. Don't freak out when things start to look different than how you originally planned it to.

A learned why people hate graffiti and think it’s a crime. I’m learning it as if I was just born.
·
As I put this project together (gather photos and look through artifacts) I am realizing more and more that my coworkers are the best part of my job. From starting as a barista and working alongside most of them to learning from my supervisors (and friends) to becoming one of them. All of my barista
·
As I started going I learned I just like really only doing graphic work and also making one at a time. Not involving my other interest (as much as I love photography), but just focusing on one thing—it’s nice and more fun for me that way. I think my biggest take away is that although my work isn
·
Crocheting is a learning process—you have to have determination and dedication to improve and develop your own styles and preferences.
·
Early childhood education is often overlooked as an easy babysitting job when in reality it's far from it. Early educators have the responsibility to prepare their class to be successful learners in upcoming years. It's crucial to have achieved such skills as: knowing the abc's, counting, reading, a
·
I became a better artist, and I had fewer screw-ups. I have a lot more experience than I do a year ago, for sure, especially with exposures and printing images.
·
I did the best that I could with the time that I had. I made a system that worked and that watered my plants. It is not nearly as fancy or sophisticated as I had originally planned on it being, but I still made it happen and I am proud of it. It was a struggle and a half to completely spin and start
·
I feel like I actually learned a lot about myself during the whole process. The biggest thing that I got from this is to just trust myself a lot more and not make things harder for myself by being focused on other people besides me.
·
I had a good time painting and making the project.
·
I had to quit scooting shortly after the problem, so I wish I was able to make it better sorry.
·
I have learned that changing your mind is okay and that once I find something I am very passionate about, it is easy to follow through.
·
I knew the information I was providing beforehand, but I learned quite a lot through the process of trying to share that knowledge with others. creating a talk that has a lot of information in it was proven counterproductive as people may get more confused or less drawn toward the subject. It was a
·
I learned a lot about me, and the "demons" I have. I feel not near as powerless as I did to them even just a little while ago. I'm learning to heal the mental things that need to be healed and grow in a healthy way, and not feel like a core part of me is a mistake and has to be hidden away.
·
I learned a lot about myself. I also learned a lot of new art mediums and started looking at it with an even broader perspective. This year I learned a lot, and with learning changes your perspective of things... It makes you better!
·
I learned I actually really enjoy color film and I think I'll be using it a lot more often now.
·
i learned that even though I won't get a grade out of finishing the dance, it is something I want to do. I want to finish it and see it through the end, I think its worth it if i want to further my skills and techniques in dancing.
·
I learned that everyone struggles with personal stuff, and that you shouldn't procrastinate everything.
·
I learned that Germany's at fault for bring Lenin into Russia which was a really risky move that I'm not entirely sure was worth it.
·
I learned that it is a lot harder to do something than to say you're going to do them. I wanted to compensate for what I felt insecure about, and struggled a lot because of it. I think my takeaway, really, is to pace myself. I would go between periods of excess and then nothing at all, and felt a lo
Other values:
I learned that it takes time and focus.
I learned that not all dog breeds are the same with sicknesses or even injuries, I also learned how to sanitize properly and safely for animals. The takeaways were having to realize that not all you try to save might make it, but at least you tried and gave them hope at the end.
I learned that you shouldn't be afraid to put yourself out there. My takeaway is that this project is very important to me.
I learned the important values of responsibility, dedication, teamwork, and leadership.
I learned there are many opportunities you can try from seeing everybody's presentation and you might want to try out that for your own career. I wish I could be hands-on, showing you guys what I'm really capable of.
I learned to stay true to my style and trust the process. Also how I need to realize that I'm not going to be a professional painter/artist overnight. Also stop giving myself such a hard time.
I learned to tackle my computer better. I learned how to make a website and that was not really what I had in mind, but I came out with a better outcome from this. It was trial and error.
I love teaching and I hope that I can teach a lot of kids!!
I love working with animals and will look into careers with animals.
I now know with great detail how all the parts in a computer fit together and can build a computer from the ground up without the assistance of my friend and mentor.
I really love what I’ve made, even if it doesn’t blow you away on the surface, this journal could really morph into something amazing. Sic parvis magna.
I really want to cook now, knowing the impact it has had on my ancestors. Also research can be fun.
I reflected over the numerous art mediums that I wouldn't have tried if I hadn't gone to TSAS.
I was overworking myself and took on too big of a workload.
I wish I'd added more pictures in my video.
I wouldn't say I have any takeaways from the capstone itself, but I do think it served as a catalyst to hone in on my photography.
I've grown immensely as a writer, both objectively and subjectively. I learned how to write and compose scenes of a narrative more clearly, and to make less mistakes and convey my image in better ways. The most important thing I gained from this project however, was better confidence in my own writi
I've realized I wasn’t happy with living a practical life. I’m not sure if I will go into animation but it’s my #1 option right now. It has the perfect balance of something I like to do and something that is difficult.
I, weirdly enough, learned something about confidence, which I just wasn't expecting considering this is a project about creating jewelry. I felt pride in something I had created and I got excited to show people it. It's been a minute! I absolutely loved learning a new skill and using my hands.
It just helped me realize how much TulsaTech has done for me.
It was pretty cool to see the inside of the engines and learning new things.
It’s one of the coolest things when you type all the code out and it works perfectly on the website
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.
I’ve learned that one idea takes you to another, and becomes bigger than you were even planning on making it.
Like everything in the world right now, life is unpredictable. Things don't go as planned and that’s very true with art as well. Learning how to adapt to how life is currently and finishing out my senior year has had it difficulties, but like with anything you can’t give up and quit. Printmaking
One of my takeaways from my capstone—and senior year as a whole—is to define what your limits are and to be realistic and flexible with your expectations for yourself. Sometimes, what seems like a "waste of time" can end up being fundamental in how you move forward. The capstone experience taugh
Our generation sadly cares more about passing than learning, though I don’t know who’s fault it is.
Overall I've learned that I'm capable of writing sheet music. I've improved my playing skills and I've also greatly improved my sheet music skills. Knowing that I created this song makes me feel even more confident about the other works I will come to create in my life. I've also learned that gettin
Resin is way more finicky than I ever imagined. It's also not safe to touch without gloves. That was a good scare. Also, fur fabrics are the bane of my existence, but they're worth using because they cover up seam mistakes (also if you use the right ones, they're such a nice texture!). I also lear
That I might want to work with children as a career.
That art work has been going on for a while and art can change your view of it
The project is nothing like I pictured it would be in the beginning, but I think that's okay. The purpose of capstone was to get us to do something new, and, in kind of an indirect way, I have done that. Hopefully that will be enough. Nothing about this end to my senior year is really satisfying or
Things often fall apart.
This project made me wonder how many more systems that are in place have major issues such as this one and how can we fix them to better those systems so that they continue to work for us not against us.
This project was my first time making brownies in particular from scratch. I was also modeling my recipe so they would look similar to the cosmic brownies I compared them to. I also learned a lot about ingredients and what all is put in the snack cakes you see in stores. It was very enlightening bec
Well I learned how to embroider, and a bunch of other little skills like that. I also have been able to explore subcultures that I enjoy through fashion, and making mainly jewelry based off of them. It, over all, was a really fun project and I got to know myself better through it.
While going to the Tulsa Tech for this capstone, I've learned many different things. Sure there was the initial cyber security, but I've also learned small bits of networking, and operating systems. Mainly different types of cyber attacks as shown in the slideshow, but also different types of connec
