ELA Component

My journal component will help my project forcing me to reflect upon my data and experience as well was reflect upon mistakes and discoveries found within my project of Globe magnetic levitation. I have also researched many of Albert Einstein's and Steven hawking's literature works and research on magnetism, electricity, and the differing physical forces.

This is my first time attempting to try out my project. It looked simple and quite interesting. After a few moments have having turned the device on though, I quickly found out that it looked much more difficult than perceived and it took me awhile to get the hang of it.

Today was the first time I had shown my project in public at the George R. Brown convention center. The crowd coming to see the projects were students from our school network so I felt a bit more at ease. It was fun to show and explain my project, and through the public's questions and inquisitions, I learned more about my project than I previously knew. They were extremely fascinated by the fact that the globe was levitating.

This was the first day presenting at the school wide STEM festival. I had to present my project to teachers, students, parents, staff, and administration. I was sure of my project and of my ability in presenting it. I enjoyed explaining the different concepts and demonstrating how the project worked. Many who saw my project were unsure of how my project worked and were amazed that it had the ability to defy gravity.
