Electronic Portfolio: question #3

I show that I have learned effectively by doing well on test or having class review and raising my hand to answer the majority of questions being asked. 

Electronic Portfolio: question #2

The best way for me to learn is by doing things hands on, or by having class discussions with note taking and reviewing things I have trouble in. I also learn best when I know there is someone pushing me to do my best and not letting me slack off. 

Electronic Portfolio : question 1

The interactions with fellow students and teachers have affected (impact, or changed in a certain way) my educational progress because as I have gotten older it seems less teachers care about what i do with my life after I graduate, and I also noticed students have became less intrigued to go to school. This makes me feel I am not recieving the best education I could be getting right now. I feel like these interactions have effected what I will be doing with my life in the long run.

What was different

The winners of the M.T.V mostly had steel made vehicles ! And wheels that were made of old car parts or rubber made material. Mines were made of wood basically my whole mtv was. Theres was more complex and creative building wise.

What grade do you earn and why ?

The grade I earn on this MTV is a C. The reason being is I completed the research and did my sketch online as told and turned in on time. I tried my best to construct the M.T.V. with the materials I had. 

What could you do to improve your design

To Improve my designs I could have done research of more desings to brain storm for mine. With my M.T.V i could have made sure my measurements were more precise and used better wheels instead of the wooden ones. I should have also had made protoypes to prepare for the race! Another thing I could have done was decorate my vehicle with stickers, paint, or drawings.

What have you learned ?

I have learned engineering is something that I am not good at! With more work I could probably get there but as of right now doing this project i realised  enginneeing is not the career field for me ! It takes a creative mind, someone that is very precise with measurments and someone that is willing to do and redo many different protypes to get something perfect. Engineering takes a lot of measurment brainstorming and hardwork. This was a good project it gave me a little more insight on engineering.

Mass Transporter Notes


 
Isaac Newton defined three laws concerning the behavior of moving objects in the 1687. These scientific statements help to explain the nature of matter and space....


1st law: Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it.

2nd law:The acceleration of an object of constant mass is proportional to the force acting upon it.

F = ma
3rd law: Whenever one body exerts force upon a second body, the second body exerts an equal and opposite force upon the first body.
