(1) What is your essential question, and what are your answers? What is your best answer and why?
- My essential question is, "What are the best techniques to train a wild horse?" My answers are trust, patience, and respect, pressure and release/advance and retreat, and desensitization. All of these techniques help with a calm, loyal, and dependable horse in the end, but without trust, patience, and respect the other methods will not work.
(2) What process did you take to arrive at this answer?
- Mentorship, interviews, and independent components.
(3) What problems did you face? How did you resolve them?
- Researching because every horse is different and responds differently as well as every trainer does things differently for every horse. So most of my solid research was done through clinics or interviews.
(4) What are the two most significant sources you used to answer your essential question and why?
- My mentor helped a ton because she has worked with 15 mustangs and some of which were third strikers so she has seen a bit of everything. My other source was my second independent component since the trainer has worked with horses since he was my age and was always willing to teach me something new when I worked with him and which was why I am continue working with him until the end of the year.
