Population Project Feedback

Questions have been commonly asked like, "Does UBD (PoP) actually help you in anyway?" Many students have come to a conclusion that PoP was created by teachers to torture us kids for the pure fun of it, and many older kids still believe thats the case. But I believe that it really does help us, just maybe not so directly. Maybe the material we covered that had to do with population isn't that critical to our education to understand so fully as we do now, but the format of the project is what helps us. Most of PoP was about time management. The separate projects themselves maybe werent individually long, but there were majour projects that we all had to work on and have them turned in at approximately the same time. You had to make time for each one seperately, making sure that you dont get behind on any of the others. But, because this was our very first majour assignment of our schooling careers, its safe to say that many people may have made a few mistakes here and there. I for one spent too much time on my Data Analysis. Even though it may not be a bad thing, I had less time to work on my other two parts, mainly bieng my Extension Option.

In conclusion, I think that overall PoP may have prepared us for what is to come in the next several years in terms of long assignments. The specific material may not be too important, but you never know, you may end up working with global issues of overpopulation, diseases, and social issues like Poverty in the future aswell.
