So I finally decided: I am definitely doing a senior thesis.
OH
MY
GOD.
It's going to be the hardest thing I ever did, but it is going to be awesome and totally validate and fulfill my entire college experience. I managed to figure out a topic that really clearly touches on all three aspects of my academic time here at Tufts: I will write about how the historical derivation of physical theory can be used as a pedagogical tool for introductory physics and general science students, and in doing so touch on ideas about what science actually is and what the everyday person should know about it.
Doesn't that sound awesome? I need to know Physics to teach it, Philosophy to get a deep understanding of what it is, and Education is the end result!!
But oh my god it is such a huge project. Now I need to get to the career center to see how long I can reasonably wait to start applying for jobs and hopefully I can put it off until summer or something, because GOL-LEE!!
