PVU GCE Portfolio

In my second unit of my Who Am I, I learned about philosophers and doubt. For this Action Project, I made a slide show about "What makes us decide what's right and wrong." I thought this was a cool action project. This was pretty easy to make, but it had some troubles. The hardest part of my project was to think about my everyday decisions and the process I take to make those decisions.

In my first  unit of my   STEAM course fuel, I learned about Chemicals, Elements, Periodic Table, and PVC. For this Action Project, I looked at natural gas consumption and estimated what it will be like for this year. It took a lot of work including redoing some steps over and over, but I got it done. I thought it was really cool to do this action project and to realise how much energy we use. The only trouble I had was making the charts, and making the predictions. I enjoyed this project a lot, I thought it brought out a different side of me.

For the last unit in my STEAM elective Biomimicry, I learned about the decomposers and how their activities keep the world in motion. For this Action Project, I chose a product and followed it from the start to finish. I redesigned the product with a sustainable process that nature uses, and I came up with my product's life cycle. It is much more closed off and ecofriendly. It reuses and repurposes materials and rethinks processes. I found it very nice to have an idea that was original. I also think it really is something that could sell on the market. The market could actually benefit from this new product.  

This is the first Action project for the winter term electives, Biomimicry. In the first unit, we learned about nature and how the Fibonacci sequence is involved in nature. This AP1 is a design something that solves a problem by using plant. By using the Aloe Vera plant I was able to incorporate a principle that I got from the aloe plant. One of the hardest parts of this AP1 was to find ideas. I talked with friends and my instructor AMD on my ideas and narrowed it down to my dog bowl. I thought I put a lot of effort in my drawings. Drawings are definitely not a strength for me. I practiced drawing the plants, so that I can draw the aloe vera plant and idea perfectly. This is my project, go check it out!

For our my Action Project in the course H20, we looked at factors that influence the weather and how the weather patterns. The project was to take a close look at a city I chose Budapest, and I made predictions as to what the future would look like for the city and what steps we can to bring changes. There was a lot of research and reading, I learned a lot about this city in Hungary. I am Happy with the outcome of the project and how my visuals turned out.
