 Explain what you completed.   
  • What I completed is a small booklet that any owner can use if they are looking to do some maintenance to their car. This book talks about experience and what I know in theory.  It covers the very basic of car maintenance. For example, tune ups to replacing windshield wipers.
Defend your work and explain the component's significance and how it demonstrates 30 hours of work.

How did the component help you answer your EQ? Please include specific examples to illustrate how it helped. 
  • It helped enforce one of my answers to my essential question because I know have something I ca offer to people in my presentation. Since my essential question is how can a first time owner maintain a car, this book serves as the first step in doing so because they hopefully learn something and get the interest of learning more. This book gives the reader the basic idea and it encourages the reader to find out specifically what step to take in order to do the maintenance on their cars.
