(c) Hours
(d) For my component, I spent 32 hours at the De Anza Teen Center working with kids and helping with their programs in order to help answer my EQ. Specifically I refereed different games, helped create posters/ fliers, helped distribute food for their movie nights, and generally monitored different activities.

Applied
Well my component helped a lot. It game me a good answer to my EQ which I was able to present on. For instance, it was from there that I understood that afterschool programs benefit them kids by making them want to be more healthy. All the foods cooked in the kitchen are healthy, and theres always a game going on which makes the less healthy kids want to get up and go play with their friends. It was also through my independant component that i learned factors of creating a quality program. I learned that a big factor was the person running the program, the friendlier staff had more kids wanting to play with them than others. All this I learned from being out in the field, and not through my research.
