Introduction

This artifact was my final project for HONORS 222, a class taught by KC Cole, which examined the science of human values. In this class, we looked at how we interact with science, and how different fields of science shape and define us. My final project for this class was an epilogue that I wrote for a book that I read outside of class, titled The Psychology of Money. The book talks about our relationship with money, and how our personal experiences define how we look at and feel about money. The epilogue that I wrote for this book focuses on the gamification of investing - how brokerages and financial institutions use fun graphics and easy-to-use interfaces to trick users into treating money differently than they would usually. This artifact is important to me because not only did I spend a lot of time researching and writing my final project, carefully crafting it to use similar language and verbiage to the rest of the book, but it also focused on a subject that I felt had a personal impact on me. I feel that it highlights my growth as a writer through college, and I hope that I can connect it with the other artifacts in my portfolio through this.
