Going through research methods class after working as a summer research assistant seemed redundant to me. Part of me wished I had taken this class before that job, but I'm also thankful that it happened this way. The class was a breeze. I mean it sucked that I could not do my research with my summer research partners; my prof wanted us to be mentors for others. Oh the struggles. Now I understand that teaching is hard. But I learned how to be patient, how to guide (not do everything on my own), and to strategically yet equally divide up work.
For our research project, my partner and I decided to investigate about hydration among OBU female athletes since she herself is a softball player.
This is our conclusion:
FYI, the paper and the poster have similar styles to the ones I worked on over the summer. I just could not publish them as part of my work contract as a research assistant. But yes, imagine writing 2 of those and making 3 of those posters in 2 months, while the ones here are finished in 4 months.
