1. Briefly describe what you PERSONALLY accomplished this week:
My main focuses of this week were creating science/chemistry articles for our website and getting our group ready for our science presentation in the next couple of weeks.
On Monday, I created outlines for the science article(s) for our website so that I have organized and clear writing, and now exactly what to implement in the articles. At this time I also began to look for various images to go along with the writing. On Tuesday I began to write the articles and got nearly half of it finished. I also continued to look for images. Wednesday, our group had our meeting with Andrew and I took time to edit our outline and turn it in to Andrew. In addition, by the end of that day I finished the science articles. Thursday was a great group day for us, because we conducted an "activated charcoal" experiment. This lab was very useful for us to help us gain a better understanding of the filtering power of chemicals, because the charcoal (actually just pure carbon) represented the soil in wetlands. Friday, I was occupied by other urgent business that I had to attend to, so I was only able to work for an hour of the work time. However throughout that hour I began our power point presentation which I continued to work on throughout the weekend.
Here are samples of what our power point looks like so far:
2. Briefly describe what your TEAMMATE(S) accomplished this week:
Emily's main focus for this week was movies, movies, movies! Throughout most of the week (Monday to Wednesday) Emily dedicated the majority of her time to creating the various short documentary films to put on our website. By Wednesday, She was able to finish two out of the four movies she was going to create, and got nearly halfway into the third movie. On Thursday she took a small break from her moving making to conduct a group lab and research about charcoal filters and their relation to wetland concepts. On Friday, Emily looked into microbes so that she will be well versed in the chemistry concepts for our future presentation.
Chelsea's week consisted of mainly working on finishing up her conservation articles as contributing to our future presentation. On Monday, Chelsea worked on pollution and development articles. Tuesday, she was finishing up her conservation articles as well as looking more into microbes so that she too would be well versed. By Wednesday, she was able to finish up the conservation and development articles as well as be a part of our meeting with Andrew. Thursday, in addition to being a part of the lab she wrote various quiz questions for our presentation.
On Friday Chelsea was unfortunately absent.
3. Briefly describe how you and your partner(s) ASSISTED each other this week:
This week was not only a week of working independently and pushing forward with our project, but there were many times that we were able to have more interaction with one another and aid each other. Creating our various quiz questions was a group effort and everyone contributed to it. Also, everyone played a key role in the lab we conducted with Andrew. This week was very productive and I'm glad to say we are still
