How will you use adult leaders? Discuss how you will ensure the safety of the workers. Remember, you do not have to DO any of the physical work yourself; you are responsible for LEADING others in carrying out the project and ensuring that everything is done the way you want it (i.e. show leadership). 16. Working the Project Now that the hard part is over, you can begin the fun part -- working the project! If you have prepared a good plan (which you will have or it won't be submitted), all you have to do is follow the plan and make the project happen. Do what you said you were going to do. It is important that you keep very good notes about everything that is done. Keep lists of all work done, who does the work, and how much time they each spent. For your final report, you will need to discuss how well the plan worked and all areas where you were not able to follow the plan, so keep good track of this information as you go along. Take pictures of each stage of the work. These will be included in the final report and will be a nice souvenir of an important milestone in your life. Keep track of all materials, supplies, tools, etc. used, paying particular attention to any differences from you original plan. 17. Upon Completion: Read and re-read your thesis/project. Have someone else read your thesis/project for clarity. Check for spelling, punctuation, and format. Have your Thesis/Project Advisor review it in person with you to help form your arguments and defense thoughts for the presentation phase; take notes. NOTE: Consider this phase as a “Murder Board”. Look for “what ifs” and “whys” to your proposal. This will help prepare you for your presentation to the Doctoral Review Board. 18. Final Write-up After the actual work on the project is completed, you are ready for the last phase of your project -- the final report. This is the section where you describe what actually happened as you carried out the plan. As with any project, it is important to review what was done and see what lessons were learned as well as providing a historic record. In this case, you also need to write a final report because your project is not complete without it! You should use the project plan as guide for preparing the final report. Briefly describe what was done and how you deviated from
