Singaporean Math Program

Unit Question:

How can we work together to achieve the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals and create a more equitable and sustainable future for all?

What are the sustainable development goals?

The Sustainable Development Goals, also known as the Global Goals, call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that by 2030 all people enjoy peace and prosperity. We played a board game similar to Snakes And Ladders about the SDG. It helped us learn about them.

The podcasts main points.


The podcast just basically informs you of Singapore and its math system.
Here it is.

Colonizing Mars project

Unit question:

How can we colonize another planet sustainably and inclusively?

Sustainability:

Doing things that keep the environment a-okay!

Inclusivity:

Give everybody the same chance to do things.

(I was on vacation for two weeks so that means I didn’t get to finish)

What kinds of resources and how many of them will we need?

 Mars has iron, titanium, nickel, aluminum, chlorine, sulfur, and calcium which we could do some good things with like build houses and such.

Mars is also confirmed to have some liquid water and polar ice caps that we could possibly drink if it had enough for us.

How will we get water?  

Dark, narrow streaks on Martian slopes such as these at Hale Crater are inferred to be formed by seasonal flow of water on contemporary Mars. The streaks are roughly the length of a football field.

There is water in polar ice caps on the planet. It is frozen and mixed with frozen CO2 (carbon dioxide)

I think I did good actual work but I think I should be less distracted.

3. What did you enjoy the most about the unit and why?:

Hanging out with my friends and brainstorming ideas.

4. How did technology enhance your learning and contributions to the projects?:

With technology we were able to do research much easier.
