@Alexander1Ej@STEMatSaunders@SaundersOne Every year we are learning something new through the work of our students. Supporting them in trying to make their ideas (ideas that we never would have thought of!) come to life is an absolute treat. Thank you for all your support and encouragement @Alexander1Ej
A look at the completed Make Life Better Projects from the @SaundersOne#STEMatSaunders students #tvdsb https://t.co/SrTFVHutmX We are now ending the year with Passion Projects.
Exploring #coding with #ozobots and making connections to equations of lines #MTH1W. @SaundersOne were asked to code a path for their ozobot to follow using 4 lines with positive/negative/zero/undefined slopes... then find the equations of those lines. #STEMatSaunders#tvdsb
Make Life Better (Project 2) Pitch Day for #STEMatSaunders@SaundersOne students. Our first 12 groups took to the stage to present their projects. #tvdsb
Applying conductors, insulators, parts of a circuit and understanding open and closed circuits with the #MakeyMakey today #STEMatSaunders students create their own controllers for a web-based game or simulator #tvdsb#STEM
This educational #STEMatSaunders student group is producing a series of animated educational videos for kids that educate them on climate change and practices that help reduce our environmental impact. #tvdsb#STEM
This #STEMatSaunders group is conducting tests and data collection (for the math component of the project). They successfully built a solar powered vehicle that stores power in a rechargeable battery pack. A switch allows power from the battery to the motor. #tvdsb
Second week of our Make Life Better project - a huge thanks to Mr Merklinger for helping our #STEMatSaunders students with their composter project - here they are looking to add a mechanism to help churn the compost. #tvdsb
Another #STEMatSaunders project involves creating under water lights that would attract fish to coral reefs in order to maintain important levels of nitrogenous wastes that act as fertilizer. They included a solar panel as its power source. #tvdsb
@melanie_hansel@SaundersOne Sure! They have been using Peltier modules - you may find them in electronic parts stores or online. Basically if there is a temperature difference between the 2 sides of this unit - you will create voltage/current flow. Typically the side with text is the cold side.
After 1 week into our Make Life Better Project, #STEMatSAUNDERS students have made a lot of progress. This group is using heat energy to charge a cell phone. More testing today before they build their prototype. @SaundersOne#tvdsb
@melanie_hansel @MsAGilbert @SaundersOne Hey Melanie, transcription by Microsoft occurred when I uploaded the video to Twitter but it is unrelated to the hologram project. When it comes to the template, it is just printed onto paper and used to cutout a piece a clear plastic that you will fold into the pyramid shape.
