This Hooulu ia Kamehameha project was something different for me. At first, I was very scared at the difficulty of this project and the amount of stress I would have trying to meet all of these deadlines. However, as the quarter went on, it was a big relief to me of how my group was on it and knew what we wanted to do. I think doing this project was a great idea, especially because we get to improve our school for the years to come. It doesn't hurt to make this school a better place, and with several groups working on different problems, we're bound to make a difference. A lot of things went well for our project. First of all, we decided on our problem AND solution early on, which to me is the hardest part of the project. Along the whole way, we were meeting our deadlines and knew what we were doing. There's nothing that really happened that strayed from the plan, but there was one small problem we encountered. It was just brainstorming on the actual design of the stand because we couldn't find an affordable, decent sized stand available to purchase. However, this problem was immediately resolved with the help of Lehua's dad because he let us use his saw horse. From this project, one of the most important skills I have aquired is the ability to work with my peers. At first I wasn't really comfortable working with Lehua and Pono, but I got to know them and learned how to work and compromise with them. This was vital so we could effectively communicate. This project wasn't too strenuous nor easy, so there's nothing I could really think of right now to improve it. Looking at the big picture, this project was for Physics class. Honestly, I didn't feel like I was working on Physics at all, or anything really related to science in general, but that's okay because we made a positive impact in our school!
