Ideas are Storming!

1. Briefly describe what you PERSONALLY accomplished today:


I personally contributed a lot of my input, insight and creative thought to creating our proposal. I initially thought of choosing wetlands as our topic of focus, and I also conceived of one of the two main end products that we are going to create. I thought of creating a model stormwater wetland to display on exhibition night. The model demonstrates the function and importance of a wetland, by filtering out pollutants and dirty water before entering any body of water.


There isn’t something that I personally accomplished, because through the cooperation and culmination of thoughts of our group we were able to shape and define our topic and product ideas.


2. Briefly describe what your TEAMMATE(S) accomplished today:


As a team we conceived of our end products. We thought of creating a website as one of our final products, an idea which we all came up with together. Emily contributed her own thoughts about the website by proposing that we include information about the plant and life species and creating informational videos. Chelsea thought of adding somewhat of an interactive flash component to the website, which will give audiences a virtual tour of a San Diego wetland.


As a whole, we thought of an essential question that related to the overarching question of the project. Through this we were able to break down which chemistry sub-subject we will go into.


3. Briefly describe how you and your partner(s) ASSISTED each other today:

EX: How did you learn from each other, teach each other, or help each other?


Today, we generally fed off of each other’s ideas and suggestions. For example I would think of creating a website, and Emily and Chelsea thought of the different aspects we could include in our site. We also all contributed looking into different websites of interest for our project, as well as numerous organizations.
