Learning, Growing, and Having Fun Along the Way

        One of the highlights of my third quarter journey is embarking on a Community Based Research (CBR) along with my groupmates and incorporating the lessons we learned about coding into the making of our webpage. It allowed us to use coding to support a community-focused initiative, which enhanced our technical skills while also fostering a sense of social responsibility. Engaging in CBR was not only educational but also fulfilling, as we learned how to engage with the community and understand their concerns.

     As our group was formed for this task, Reindel was appointed as our leader. For our project category, we selected Science, Technology, and Health, and within this, we focused specifically on the topic of biological life (flora and fauna). After discussing potential ideas, we decided to narrow our focus to cauliflower, exploring its biological aspects, including its growth, environmental requirements, and relevance. 

    He assigned each of us specific components of the research, ensuring that everyone had a clear and distinct responsibility. With these tasks in hand, we were able to focus on our individual contributions. I was tasked with writing the Brief Research Description, where I created an overview that clearly outlined the scope and purpose of our study. This involved summarizing the key objectives and providing context for the topic, making sure it was both informative and engaging for our audience. Throughout the process, each of us took full ownership of our respective roles, ensuring that our work was cohesive and aligned seamlessly with the overall goals of the project.

    To gain a deeper understanding of our topic, we visited Pudoc Norte, the community that served as the foundation of our research. There, we conducted interviews with local farmers, focusing specifically on those who cultivate cauliflower. Our goal was to learn more about the agricultural practices surrounding cauliflower, its significance to the community, and the role it plays in their livelihoods. Through these conversations, we gathered valuable insights that enriched our understanding of both the crop and its importance to the people who grow it.

    In addition to the interviews, we also visited the farms where cauliflower is cultivated to observe the farming process firsthand. This allowed us to gain a deeper understanding of the techniques and practices used by the farmers. 

 

    We were able to witness the different stages of cauliflower growth, from the small, delicate seedlings to the fully matured, large heads of cauliflower. Observing the farms gave us valuable insight into the conditions that contribute to successful cauliflower cultivation, as well as the challenges farmers face in ensuring healthy crops.

  

    After gathering all the necessary information through interviews and farm visits, we carefully compiled and analyzed our findings. With all the data in place, the paper was finalized, ensuring that our research was thoroughly well-organized.

  

     We then moved forward with the webpage, where various codes were incorporated to enhance both its functionality and presentation. The incorporation of these codings allowed our webpage to be presented in a way that was not only informative but also interactive and engaging. After that, we presented our webpage.

This journey has been an experience, allowing me to expand my knowledge while also enjoying the process along the way.
