At last, I have received confirmation that my project proposal has been approved which means I will be able to get started on my extended project. Initially before the start of the term I had wanted to do my project on obesity in the UK but reconsidered so that I could find a project that had a bit more relevance to the subjects I am current undergoing for A2.
I decided that I would like to do my extended project on the Higg's Boson because this would be a topic I would enjoy researching and also that the scientists working with particle accelerators around the world are at a pinnacle stage of their work, where the Higgs boson is believed to have been discovered in the summer of 2012, and the properties of the particle can be explored in the near future. Due to the current status of what would seem to be the greatest scientific breakthrough in the century, I feel that there would be plenty of sources where I could find relevant information for my projec.
A problem which I expect to run into during my project would be that different sources would provide contradicting information due to the advancements of the understanding of the Higg's Boson. A piece of information from several years ago may have unintended errors from being slightly outdated in the approach of the topic.
Great to see you've given your proposal a good amount of thought and have considered how your project will progress.
