Final BlogPost (:

Overall, I felt that this project turned out really well. All groups were able to successfully identify a problem they wanted to create a solution for and worked toward implementing it. Things that went well for our group was quickly proposing a problem we wanted to create a solution for, brainstorming a simple solution that we believed could still make a large impact, and implementing ideas and coming out with positive feedback. To attain our final victory, we also encountered difficulties along the way. We didn‘t plan on not being able to purchase a A-Frame Sign Stand, but luckily we were able to compensate for that with my dad To attain our final victory, we also encountered difficulties along the way. We didn‘t plan on not being able to purchase a A-Frame Sign Stand, but luckily we were able to compensate for that with my dad‘s sawhorse. Although our solution wasn‘t extremely complex or involved many materials, my group still found our project to be highly effective. By participating in this project, I learned that sometimes the smallest ideas could have the biggest impact. I also learned that cooperating gets the job done quickly while dictating gets you nowhere. In the future, I would like to see this activity require more students to be successful in their solutions rather than just giving it a try. This may be a little too much to ask for, but I believe the students of Kamehameha have the potential to find a working solution to campus problems. I felt that we were actually doing science because as Mr. Blake says, “Physics is everywhere”. Therefore, I felt that we were still working from a physics point of view throughout our entire process.
