History of Measurement

We had to do a WebQuest on the history of measurements. Then we had to develop a presentation. I decided to do a book jacket. So there is a front and a back book with answered questions and also facts. I had to discover how units came to be, the tools that were used, major contributors, and any blunders that occured.


                                           
                         This was the first 12 slides of the powerpoint.



This was the last 3 slides  of the powerpoint.

Beverage Container


This project was basically to innovate a cup. We had to think of new ideas to improve a beverage cup. We had to consider the reasons of why someone would want to purchase our cup. So we came up with the ideas of making a mood cup. Basically, there's a censor on the cup and when you touch the cup it would change in to red, blue, or green specifiying how your mood is at that moment. You could be happy, sad, or angry.


This is the Engineer's notebook with the ideas.
This is the actual poster and project presented.
