Compass is an independent study class where you can choose to focus on anything of your interest. Personally I have lots of interest but I decided to focus on a career I am hoping to pursue. My project is on physical therapy and learning about the different fields/levels of PT. As an athlete I’ve experienced physical therapy through a patient's perspective. I wanted to gain a different perspective on physical therapy and athletic training and am hoping to broaden my knowledge and pursue physical therapy/athletic training in college. I started off on a completely different path looking at different dog breeds, it made me realize I already knew a lot of the information and I wasn't learning anything new. I then was looking through other interests in my life that I would want to explore and learn more about. I have a lot of PT history but only have information from a patient perspective. I then found it interesting to learn about how PT’s do their job. I have worked on what the benefits are by practicing physical therapy and how it prevents injuries more. And I have overviewed all of my past injuries and how physical therapy helped or could have helped those injuries recover as an athlete. I want to start leading my project into the athletic training aspect of physical therapy.
