Outcomes of Empowerment
We explored the effects of different levels of culturally embedded women empowerment across the world in a variety of areas such as education, pay, and population.
Project Profile
Reflector Telescope
Fun to make and even more fun to use, a reflector telescope is the perfect device for viewing the night sky. The first reflecting telescope, the Newtonian Telescope, was built in 1668 as an alternative to the refracting telescope. Isaac Newton, the inventor, used a large concave mirror to focus light onto a small, flat […]
Plant made Plastic
For my project this year, I developed multiple plant-based, easily accessible, and recycled bioplastics. All ingredients were easy and inexpensive to get, or traditional leftover food scraps. Some examples include an eggshell-based composite, a coffee-based composite, and a starch-based bioplastic similar to a Ziploc bag.
First Gen Investors
The First Gen Investors project is my attempt at exploring and learning about the infinite world of stocks and investing. Most teenagers are completely deprived of the chance to learn and experience the stock market, which is something I have noticed and want to change. I hoped to do this by first gaining experience myself, […]
Safe Harbor
For my i2 project, I decided to look into the world of surrendered babies, at safe haven sites like hospitals and fire stations. I had an idea to mimic the red white and blue most babies are wrapped in at American hospitals, but change them to be special to the infants being taken in after […]
Motorized Kayak
For my project in 2020-2021, I motorized a large kayak. I decided on this project because I love to build, design, and to apply my skills in the real world. I was motivated to make this kayak electric after seeing the effects of gas on the Russian River, where my family has a house. I […]
Ayurvedic Medicine for Adolescence
Ayurvedic Medicine for Adolescence is a project mainly targeted at youth generations but appealable to all generations overall in a simple, clean format. Ayurvedic Medicine is a centuries old alternative medicine system and being Hindu myself, I grew up with this medicine around my family. Western medicine is significant, but I believe that Ayurvedic Medicine […]
The Solar Rover
I am interested in the idea of renewable energy used in portable applications to create independence. This project utilities’ a solar panel to power itself. The goal of the project is to create a rover for use in detailed surveying of farmland. The rover uses GPS and solar to become autonomous as it moves. I […]
KEA Planter
When our group was coming up with an idea for our project, we all saw that we were all interested in the environment. We wanted to do something that would benefit people who are trying to grow a garden, but might be unable to consistently take care of it. As a result, we decide to […]
Freshman Year Transition
My goal for my i2 project this year is to help future freshmen transitioning from public schools to SHC. I became interested in this topic by noticing that my peers from public schools were struggling to adapt to SHC, more so than our fellow freshmen who hailed from private middle schools. This project is important […]
