**GENIUS HOUR**
MODE- Scientific, nonfiction, educational, research. MEDIA- Website AUDIENCE- Anyone who is interested in finding out the different aspects of dreams. PURPOSE- Informational. To give an insight and educate the public about my research on the different areas concerning dreams such as, why we dream in the first place, how they can be manipulated, the meaning behind certain dreams, and how one's memories may play a role in their dreams. SITUATION- I created this website because there wasn't a single source that gave me all of the information I was interested in. There was only one source for each category, but not one that contained ALL of the information I was looking for. I made this website about dreams because it is a common experience that everyone shares, but is yet barely understood by the science world since most information about dreams are theories.

What did you research and why? I researched about the different aspects of dreams including why we dream, how food effects dreams/sleep, what certain dreams mean, and how memories play a role. I researched this because it is something I am interested in, and it is something that everyone experiences. It is also interesting what little concrete evidence scientists have on dreams. Most of the information are just theories.

What did you create and why? I created a Weebly because my research is informational, so a website is an easy way to enforce that purpose with multiple pages to categorize the different aspects of dreams.
