Currently our EcoGame is a card game is still being made. The objective of the game is to destroy other people’s ecosystem. To play each person tries to built their own ecosystem to make it easier for them to destroy other people’s ecosystems. So basically the game has producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, and tertiary consumers. Producers are at the base of the pyramid, you need four producers to have one primary consumer. When you get to the next level of consumers you get to choose between a disaster card and a helper card. The disaster cards are natural disasters that apply to every one. Helper cards help you (hence the name). They allow you to pick up another card or play extra cards. To go to secondary consumers you need to have one extra primary consumer to place a secondary consumer. Same for the tertiary consumers. When you have two tertiary consumers you automatically get a human. The human allows you to play a human intervention card. For example, if you get a careless camper they will allow you to burn down two producers of anyone else’ s ecosystem. Note that some of the things in our game will be changed.
Currently I am reading the autobiography of Nikola Tesla. This is an interesting book to read because Tesla tells tales of his life and experiences and he also tells the reader many of his thoughts. Tesla’s work is certainly important to the technology of today. Tesla would certainly be an interesting fellow to have as a friend. I think that I would certainly want be his friend, though I do not know whether he would want to be my friend. I would like to be his friend because of the his tales, to hear his opinions, and to learn about his inventions. He has experience in his field and I would love to listen to what he has to say about it.
Children of Men
In this movie humans are facing extinction due to infertility. Society is descending into anarchy. People are colonizing and testing their theories. But when one woman is found pregnant there is urgency to guide her to a location where scientists can study her.
2. To what extent would it be reasonable to worry about this scenario?
Infertility in men has been found to be lowered by BPA and junk food. 1 in 5 men have 5 to 15% of sperm were found to be healthy enough to be classified as normal. This is making scientists nervous. Another possibility is that people are having problems with meiosis. This issue could be a serious problem in the future. On the other hand, there are around seven billion people on the planet. So this is not an issue to be concerned about in our lifetime.
a. What was the best suggestion or feedback that you got from classmates that commented in the forum? Who posted the comment?
Our best suggestion that we got from a classmate is by Max Byres “You guys didn’t have all that much information for a group of five people…”. I agree 100% we did not have as much information about our inquiry considering we had five people. A more interesting way to present it would have been to have each person research a specific part. If we did that we would have had a lot more information.
b. Was the feedback useful? Why or why not?
Yes, in my opinion all feedback is useful. We can always improve our inquiries and presentations.
2. Reflection
a. What is a key thing that you learned about inquiry learning? (the process of your inquiry)
I learned that the inquiry process is a process that can have alot of information.
b. What do you need help with in order to improve?
Tomorrow we present.
Today we polished the presentation and then I did math. Tomorrow I plan to review.
Today, we polished our presentation and had our presentation day moved to friday.
Today, we have begun creating the presentation. Tomorrow, we plan to finish and polish the presentation.
We are planing to make an app capable to communicate with an app on ios on android and viceversa.
Have downloaded some more software to make this app and tomorrow we plan to do some debugging and make the game.
Today we downloaded some more software, tomorrow we plan to do more design.
Today we explored a program with a demo tomorrow we plan on changing a different pre set.
Today we have explored some programs, tomorrow we plan to use figure them out
Today, we have begun creating the presentation. Tomorrow, we plan to finish and polish the presentation.
