Process Documentation Round III

Chuck sent over a complete comparison of his two players to the academic source on success he found.

Leonel found a shortage of information on his particular musicians, so his subject was changed to the arts. He researched and compared Music and Self Publishing. He looked through Google with the keywords “success stories in music” and Academic Search Complete using the terms “Successful Stories” and “Successful process”. Leonel also provided a good chunk of the Synthesis page.

Remy compared his subjects to a news paper article written with a doctor of neurosurgery who has experience in psychology and pulled together everything for the web site. The search terms used were “becomming successful” on Academic Search Complete

Process Documentation Round II

Charles found his other hockey player, Ryan McDonagh, and stitched together a series of steps which map similarly to his other person of achievement, Patrick Kane. Charles also found a website which caters to a similar purpose as ours, except it blatantly spells out what we want the reader to realize and learn for themselves.

Remy reached out to someone who works at NASA for some insight as to the path which lead them there.

Process documentation

Charles found hockey player Patrick Kane and started researching his life and career. He wrote down an outline of their life leading into Kane’s career, then started elaborating on each of the points.

Lelnel found an article which sits down with a variety of musicians and discusses their careers. He wrote down an outline pulled from this article which highlights the commonalities seen throughout the articles.

Remy started researching Carl Sagan and found several bibliographic sites, a couple of books, and a timeline in it to work with.

Professor Beilin’s advice: consider upbringing and preparation as a child, natural talent. Not everyone knows who or what they want to be, and sometimes decisions have to be made as soon as opportunities are presented (like in being an athlete of musician)
