Project Me
The Project Me project helped me grow in collaboration because my teammates and I had to collaborate a lot with each other and to the class. For example we had to collaborate when discussing what we were going to do for assignments or when we didn't exactly understand something. Before this project my skills in collaboration were at a pretty decent level but after this project my skills in collaborating have increased. After accomplishing the project I notice that I had to collaborate for everything like on how to do the assignments/homework, or on how to do the lab. I feel my skills in collaboration has increased because we collaborated a lot and well I didn't notice how good I was at it, and collaborating with my group members makes me realize that I have improved in collaboration over my years here. Overall I feel that collaboration is important and should always be improving so that we can always have the ability to work with others to create new brilliant things.
Lab
Title: Food and Energy Lab
Date of Activity: August 26-27 2013
Purpose: The purpose of the lab was to educate students in the different measurements of food, how you measure food, and how to determine the amount of calories in different foods and drinks. We also learned how to measure water.
Hypothesis/Prediction: I predict that the corn chip will help heat the water faster than the potato chip and the marshmallow. The marshmallow most likely won’t burn at all and the potato chip will burn because of all the oils it contains.
Procedure: (this is where you write the directions for how to do the lab. This is NOT a paragraph but rather numbered steps.)
1. Weigh the food (corn chips, marshmallows, water, and potato chip) and weigh the aluminum can. How many grams?
2. Pour water into the can so that we cans see if the corn chips, the marshmallows or potato chips heated the water more.
3. Write down notes. Write down the temperature and
Safety: Wear your goggles and lab coat at all times just to be safe.
Materials:
Thermometer
Corn chips
Marshmallows
Hotdogs
Beam balance
Lighter
Al Foil
Water
Empty soda can
Data: (this is where you write down data and observations)
Marshmallow 6:3.73 grams after burning 3.89 grams
soda can empty: 13.66 grams
poured 100 ml of water into can and measured 103.07 grams
took temperature of water before burning
Water 25 cº before, after 26c
Marshmallows 3.89g before, after
7.9 potato chips weight
41 mL water in can lamp. 25cº before heating
33 cº after heating weight after
tortilla chips weight 5.64
before heating
40 mL water into can 46:before heating
After hating 60cº weight after burning 2.8c
10.16 weight tortilla chips
26 water before burning
100 after-water
My hypothesis was that the corn chips were going to heat up the water faster and that they were going to bur the most energy off. I do not know if my hypothesis was correct or incorrect because I did not understand the data. I should have asked for help so that I could understand the material.
