Scientific Inquiry and Analysis

This was one of my favorite classes towards the end of the school year. At first, we learned about the scientific method, some basic statistics, and about units of measure, however as we kept going we began using more scientific reasoning and math which is my strength. We learned about some basic physics concepts and equations. We also learned about some basic chemistry towards the end of the school year. This class has been like a foundation on which we will build our knowledge of science. This class has taught me how to analysis scientific works and how to create my own. This class is essential to my high school science journey and I am glad I took it.

For this assignment, we had to create an experiment using a parachute to learn about air resistance. Since I was remote, I had to do this experiment by myself. I chose this assignment to display because I believe that it is a great example of how I problem-solve. You can read the document to learn more about the experiment, but in summary, I decided to run an experiment to see if the parachute area impacted the amount of time it took the person to fall. I ran into a couple of problems at first, but I was able to figure out a way to continue. I also liked how this assignment tied together my science, math, and technology knowledge into one cohesive work. I think this is one of the best labs I have ever done and I hope that all of my labs will turn out like this.
