What questions will you ask your mentor in an interview? I will ask my mentor questions that are going to be able to get me better at what a my goal for this project is, which is to get better at public speaking.

How would you adapt this topic to share it with your peers or community? I could adapt my project in many ways to help my peers and community including; by using my new found skill of public speaking to tell people what I believe. For example I believe that animal abuse it wrong and there should be more punishment for it. Therefore I could go to a school and give a speech of how animal abuse is wrong and maybe persuade some of the kids not to do it and believe that it is wrong and needs to be stopped.

What could be combined with your project topic to improve (change) something in society? Since my project skill is public speaking, I could talk about something that matters in the society that I think needs to improve. For example, I could talk in front of a school or class about animal abuse and how it is not ok. I could try to persuade the kids at a young age to believe that animal abuse is not ok. With my new public speaking skills I really think I could change the world for the better and at the bare minimum persuade some people to believe in what i believe in from my new found skill.
