Acknowledgments

Acknowledgements I would like to thank Mrs. Valenza for all her help on research and especially on teaching me how to use the program to create my video. She helped me without holding my hand every step of the way, which helped me to learn independently about something I never would have learned about if not for her patience. I would also like to thank Mr. Weidner and Dr. Smith for allowing me to interview them and feature them in my video. I believe it helped me add clarity to the topic in a new way. Their help was greatly appreciated. Mrs. Penzone also helped me immensely by clarifying assignments, always being there to listen, and for giving me ideas when I was stumped about finding quality pictures. Above all else, I would like to thank my mentor, Mr. Gershman, for his encouragement and help throughout the entire process. He also edited my paper, for which I am very grateful. Last but not least, I would like to thank Mr. Alexander for his guidance on how to talk in front of a classroom, and I hope to incorporate his tactics in my presentation.
