ASA 2022 STEAM EXPO

PROJECT SUMMARY

I will be presenting my blender 3D model that I did for my quarter 3 social studies project. It's a model of a solar panel, and I added some animation and colors to accurately represent what my ideal solar panel for my neighborhood in paraguay would look like.

WHY?

I was trying to solve the problem of the lack of internet and also the lack of available books for people of my neighborhood to read, so I came up with the idea of using solar panels to connect to satellite internet of the Starlink business and then have free books for everyone to read online.

HOW?

I created my 3D model by looking at samples of different solar panels, and I identified the ideal one by doing some research about types of solar panels and all of their pros and cons, as well as what areas and conditions they function best in. After I found the right panel, I watched videos about blender to add animations and make my model very realistic.

WHAT?

My idea works because it is really well thought and planned, since I thought of all the possibilities and ways to make my idea sustainable and affordable. I have several sources of economic support, as well as thorough research to prove why my prototype is going to work. I described the project in a detailed paragraph of my project google doc.

SO WHAT?

My results are important because they could mean that if my project is put to life then neighborhoods of people in Paraguay could have easier access to internet, online books, and renewable energy. I learned from my results that if we work together we can all come up with sustainable solutions to our shared conflicts, and if we think strategically we will be able to solve many problems with one solution.

WHAT'S NEXT?

I could extend the project by making it come to life. I could contact my economic support sources and try to get help from them in accessing the solar panel type I researched and found to be ideal for my neighborhood. The next steps are to try to make it come to life by trying it out and see what works and what doesn't to make improvements.

REFERENCES & ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

I got my ideas for this project by trying to solve 3 main conflicts I saw as an option for trying to solve and then by doing research and interviews about how I could make this project work. I used data from articles, primary and secondary sources, and finally I collected my information all together and organized it before making a 3D model of how it would look.

JUDGES FEEDBACK

Your motivations behind this project is excellent! Not only are you trying to provide internet for everyone but you ar also trying to do it in a manner that incorpoates clean energy. This would be great to be impicated into many neighbourhoods around Paraguay and it really follows the idea of trying to make the world a btter place.
