My Sundiata comic portrays one of Sundiata’s most heroic decisions, in my personal opinion. I decided to create a conversation between a young boy from his home of Niani delivering the message of its danger to show how Sundiata feels it is right to protect the defenseless. This conversation didn’t happen in the actual story, but I enjoyed using the tool of dialogue to tell a story.
This is an argumentative essay describing and arguing for the heroism of the character of Sundiata from the African folk tale of Sundiata. We read the text and this was our final project.
I was a web developer for our end-semester immersive experience. I partnered with a peer to design and streamline a functional website where users could reserve tickets and see examples of our work online. We highlighted the theme of our experience throughout the design and our article highlighting water insecurity worldwide. I am personally most proud of the home page's visuals (see above) , as that was where I had the most input. I did wish we had the resources to fund a more specialized domain name for the website so it would be easier to find.
This project was a collaboration between my Dig/Tech and ELA classes in which we used our coding knowledge learned throughout our unit to explain and apply the themes of the Ancient Malian legend of Sundiata as they apply to the modern day.
In this assignment, we constructed a model of Newton's Cradle, which models the first law of physics. This law states. "Energy cannot be created or destroyed, simply transferred from one object to another." My team then created a video explaining the details of our project. The video is linked below.
In this assignment, we studied Newton's laws and built a rocket made of water bottles, plastic straws, baking soda, vinegar, and a cork. The straws stabilized the rocket, and the baking soda and vinegar acted as the force that pushed the rocket off of the ground. Our results were underwhelming, suggesting that there was an error in the building of the rocket.
