There are about 2 weeks left until the i2 Showcase Celebration, and my project is almost finished. Even in the past few days, I am constantly making revisions due to time constraints, one big change I have made is to not include the Minecraft maze for the participants to find their way through. It was […]
Our project has been coming along pretty well. The website is built and available for all to view and our content is being added. Our website allows people to view our lessons in the form of blogs, search for specific topics they want to learn about, and contact us with questions they may have, along […]
Since my last blog in October, my group and I have chosen to make piezoelectric shoes using an insole that you can slip into your shoe. These insoles convert kinetic energy into electrical energy allowing you to charge a portable charger while walking. We have been able to make a lot of progress so far […]
As the year has progressed, my junior year I2 project—Shuffle Boards—has developed and grown. Currently, I have designed my game boards and game cards, and I am in the process of testing, ordering, and finalizing the project. Once this is done, I need to create my instructions, and I will have a finished game as […]
After many months of taking volleyball statistics for the varsity girl’s volleyball team, I have decided to create a handheld controller with many buttons to make taking stats quicker and easier. During the girl’s season, I used an iPad with the SoloStats app to take statistics, and although this app is generally easy to use, […]
My initial plan for this project was to create a code that simplifies the philosophy created by Dr. Kawashima; doing simple problems every day can help train your brain to build better communication and memory skills (among others). I also planned to test this website with a couple of candidates to prove whether this process […]
One way I have revised my initial project is that I’ve decided to focus more on the environment than just on bees. I think it would be irresponsible of me to do all of this work and get bee hives for the school for me to just graduate and not have anyone to continue the […]
My i2 project previously was to make a kit for converting a normal bike into an electric bike with i2 students Brandon Holland and Rylan Gutierrez. We realized this project may be too difficult and cost too much money so we decided to just convert one of our normal bikes into an electric bike. For […]
I have refined my initial project idea, and I am now conducting interviews with various individuals involved in the biotechnology industry. I have asked them about their college and career paths in order to get a better understanding of how universal the biotechnology industry can be. They have shared personal insights and advice to viewers […]
Since my last blog post, my group and I have decided on a project idea and made considerable progress. My junior project is developing insoles that contain piezoelectric crystals that allow the wearer to convert the kinetic energy from walking into electrical energy that can charge a portable battery pack, which can then charge a […]
