We have been doing Project utopia for a long time about 3 Terms Now, we started by going to The occupied stairs. This is where our project got presented to us. We started by going to Fremantle Port to see what we were dealing with, including Size, Places, what was special about Fremantle and what space was available. We then did some research on livability. A big part of this came from English and Humanities. We talked about liveability factors and How they took a big part in Project Utopia. After we finished that we started creating ideas, Brainstorming. Then we started our vision boards. Got Feedback from teacher experts and Grandparents.
Connected Learning- Paint 3D
I have learnt many things such as using magic select and 3D objects.
My 3D object was a Chicken Nugget Volcano. It was connected learning and we were doing the rotation with Mr Middleton, about Digital Stuff. In that period we were doing Paint 3D. He was teaching us to use Paint 3D, more specifically magic select. So pretty much-removing backgrounds. So I made something weird but unique, A chicken Nugget Volcano.
Renewable sources-Science
We researched Renewable sources.
Solar
The Earth intercepts a lot of Solar Power, 173 thousand terawatts. Solar panels are made up of smaller units called solar cells. The most common solar cells are made from silicone, a semiconductor that is the second most abundant element on Earth. In a Solar cell, crystalline is sandwiched between conductive layers. Each silicon atom is connected to its neighbours by four strong bonds, which keep the electrons in place. A silicon solar cell uses two different layers of silicon, n-type silicon has extra electrons and p-type silicon has extra spaces for electrons, called holes. Where the two types of silicon meet, electrons can wander across the p/n junction, leaving a positive charge on one side and creating a negative charge on the other.
Wind
A series of sails or blades mounted around a rotor catch the wind and translate its kinetic energy into rotational energy. Three primary factors determine just how much energy they can produce: the size and orientation of the blades, the blade’s aerodynamic design, and the amount of wind turning the rotor.
What is My Capabilities shown form the past 4 weeks.
In my first 4 weeks of Senior School I have shown Organisation. Because in Senior school you have to be in different places at different times. Since we are new to the school we don’t know what rooms to got to but then we used our problem solving skills. For example for Maths we needed to go to C8 and those no SUCH THING AS C8. It was C7…
