Class Evaluation

Class Evaluation

1)Things I like about the class is mainly the environment, everyone knows each other and the teacher is very friendly and caring. I really like the Assignments that Mr. Haymore assigned us because it was about learning but also we had fun while doing it.

2)The things that i did not like about this class is that it ended early I wanted to last a bit longer because i really like this class.

3)I honestly only have 1 way of how to improve this class is giving assignments that are a bit more complex to challenge the students on what they learned through out the class period or week.

4)A highlight for me in this class is creating the scratch project we had to turn in to college-board as our AP exam because I know I did pretty good.

5)I honestly didn't do my best, I know myself very well and I could have done much better but I procrastinated and slack off. I wish I can go back and do better because I know that I could have got and A in this class.

6)I read my life planning journal at least 1 time every two days maybe 2 times because I don't have to much time I'm always in a rushed mood.

7)Yes, I am commited to being a CTR person I have always wanted to do everything right I would never want to treat anyone less or judge them by how they look, I always try to make a difference in my community and always have a greeting mood when i don't know someone and I finally meet them for the first time.

Class Evaluation

1)The things that I really like about this class was the teacher and the students they were all friendly and hardworking. I like the environment that we were working in and that's what made it easier for me not to feel shy.

2)I really don't have pretty much anything in my head of what I didn't like in this class. I just did not like that we could chose our partner to work on our projects with because if you have someone you don't like or you don't really know that person it would feel really uncomfortable.

3)The recommendations that I would give to improve the class is just keep doing the good work. I really enjoy this class a lot and I got to do some fun activities which made this class great.

4)A highlight for me in this class is that i got to talk to people I don't usually talk to and I got to work with them and have fun working on a project. I was shy at first but then it just all came together while working on the work.

5)No, I didn't try my best because I knew I could do better but I was procrastinator on some stuff and I forget at times what we do. I know I could do better and I am going to next semester. I am going to stop procrastinating and do all my work from now on.

6)I am trying to pass the class with at least a B and I will be studying a lot and get ready for the AP test that is coming up next semester.

7)Yes, I am always reading my life planning journal but i never get enough time to input the data that i read it daily but I am going to get the time to do it.

8)Yes, I am committed to be a CTR and an Arete student because im always trying to do good things for the community and I'm always on task. I learned how to value the things in life and how much money is really valuable and what a dollar can do for someone and i cherish life because I am fortunate to have the opportunity to get to go to school.

Innovation

A new bendable lithium-ion battery that can flex and twist could power wearable devices and one day be used to develop a flexible smartphone. The battery already has been tested to withstand twists, bends and other deformations while maintaining its ability to hold a charge.The bendable battery is just 0.02 inches, 0.55 millimeters thick. This innovation can help the people because we are able to get new ideas or creating different experiments and make the technology advance more. I really like this innovation because it help out a lot to create new inventions.

Exploring Performace Task

Exploring Performance Task

I really like the Flash Talk a lot because it made me so much aware of the things we don't know but we should know. There is so much information that is being denied access to, there is information we want to know about. I learned that internet censorship overall is a great concept because it helps the society more and prevents people from getting in a bad position and it doesn't just help out the adults but also the children because it filters out the content that children shouldn't be able to watch.

Internet Innovation

Internet Innovation

5G will bring more powerful wireless networks that connect things to each other, to people, and to the cloud.  5G network infrastructure technologies to accelerate this transition, collaboration will include proof of concepts and pilot programs for technologies like Mobile Edge Computing, Cloud Radio Access Network, and Network Functions Virtualization. This will impact a lot of people because mostly everyone has a smartphone so the update will be better for most people. This will solve the problem that people hate having slow internet.

I think its a great innovation because the internet will be more reliable and fast so people wont have to struggle that much on the speed of which the page loads.

Innovations

Motorrad Vision Next 100

This innovation is BMW creation which is a concept motorcycle that can balance itself in motions and when its completely stopped. BMW says that you don't need a helmet when operating this vehicle because its so advanced in technology and really safe. This will impact the motorcyclist in a good way so they can experience a newer and safer bike that they could be using on their adventures or day-to-day uses. It will solve the problem of motorcyclist getting injured or into an accident. I Think that this innovation is great it helps a lot of people out and makes the experience of owning that bike incredible because even though it looks really nice it has the ability to self balance and also protect your life.

Arete

Ben Carson

As a pioneer in neurosurgery, Carson's achievements include performing the first and only successful separation of Siamese twins joined at the back of the head, pioneering the first successful neurosurgical procedure separation of type-2 vertical craniopagus twins. His excellence was achieved by him practicing a lot and staying positive that he will accomplish that goal. Newer technology would have a good impact because his surgeries would have been much easier at that time.

Reflection:

I think that if you practice a lot, stay humble, and have a lot of confidence on yourself that whatever you plan to achieve you will accomplish that and your going to surpass it and do a better job then you expected.

Technology Innovations

Hexoskin

This innovation is a shirt that can help you health wise, it can measure your cardiac and breathing activity. This will impact daily joggers and people who play sports because it shows you your heart rate and you would be able to control it in case you want your heart rate to slow down. The problems that it will solve is so people could see if they have normal breathing after a work out. I think this is a great innovation because it has a lot of cons and will help the active people more.

Innovations

Innovation

The innovation is a wireless charging for a car. The first wireless charging system for EVs transmits electricity to an adapter on the car that then routes it to the batteries. This will impact the people who have electric vehicles because it will make it so much easier to charge the car. The problem it will solve is forgetting to charge your car. I think that this is a great innovation because it would be so much easier and better to have wireless charging.

Arete

Roger Bannister

He achieved excellency by being the first person to ever run a 4 minute mile. His excellence was achieved by training alot and having a great mentality that he can do it. 

Innovations

CONVERGENT DENTAL SOLEA

A pain free dentistry which silently works on tooth and guma and you dont need anesthesia because it doesnt cause bleeding and pain. It will impact the dentist because they arent going to be able do do much of their work, it impacts the people because they would go to the dentist more often. it will solve the problems that the kids are scared of dentist because of the pain and bleeding. I think this is a great innovation because it would help alot of people and make people go to the dentist more.

Arete

Mikaele Oloa

The excellence that Makaele Oloa achieved was being a fireknife dancer and practicing from when he was barely five and became a total holder of fireknife master at age 15. The excellence achieved was by practicing and putting all the dedication into what you really love to do and always trying to improve on yourself so that you can do it way better later on.

Reflection:

This arete excellence was incredible because he has so much pride and is really happy on what hes doing from the age of 5 to start and become that good and beat other competitors that are older and may have a little bit more experience, the lesson in life that I learned was that if you give it your best to try to achieve greatness, you will succeed and you will become better then you thought you would.

Arete

Nathan Sawaya

The excellence achieved by Nathan Sawaya was by being a great artist who builds custom three-dimensional sculptures, best known for his work with standard LEGO toy bricks. His excellence was achieved by being dedicated and loving to himself by building things he loves and loves to build thoose things. Technology might have impacted him and helped him to get a good image on how to build hose things.

Reflection:

I think that this Arete excellence is magnificent because its extremely hard to build 3 dimensional sculptures with legos and hes so happy doing that. I really like some of his work that he has done and it amazes me so much because it looks so incredible.

Innovations

Automakers have been unwilling to bet on hydrogen fuel cells, but Toyota didnt care and created the first mass-market hydrogen car. The FCV, which launches in Japan early next year and in the U.S. in late 2015, has a 300-mile range. This will impact alot of the people because they can get around cheaper and it wouldnt affect the environment. It will solve problems of paying from paying high gas prices and getting 300 mpg. I think this is a great invention because it will help the environment and will also help the people save money.

In this reading it shows that not everything you see is how it's meant to be read or seen, for instanow people send messages on paper or on emails , and texts which can have secret messages that unveil locations or information. In this reading a man discover information about the troops, their mission, and their location.

Arete

Alex Hattori

The excellence achieved was that this young teenager was earning a lot of medals from 4th place to first place in many different championships. His excellence was achieved by commiting to himself and trying his best and practicing alot so that he can become a champion. Technology could have impacted this because back in the day he wouldnt have any recordings of how to do certain tricks and where he sound improve on and now he could just go look at his previous videos on how he did those tricks and could improve them.

Reflection:

I think its a great lesson because when you want to do something that you love, you try your best give it 110% and practice a lot so that you can keep improving and later on your going to see the reults and not only think about the prize money or the trophy, do it because you love to do it. if you want to achieve excellenc you have to set goals and you have to believ in yourself that you can do it.

Blown to Bits: Chapter 2

Blown to Bits: Chapter 2

The story describes about an incident that occurred and happened during rush hours and it led for the police to look at the camera's because at that time the UK had a great amount of camera's in different places which in that case some people thought it was to protect you, and some people thought it took away your privacy with so many camera's everywhere. Camera's are a good source to track down clues or may lead to how the people committed the crime and who did it.

Computer Science Innovations

Artificial Intelligence

Throughout the year's AI has got more advance, the most advanced motherboards, processors, and microchips must divide into different sections and categories their resources for maximum efficiency. Scientist have been trying really hard to get the AI motherboard to perform like a human brain. It will impact the people because the AI can detect the weather accurately and also help clean the environment.

Arete

Carl & Margaret Karcher

Carl and Karcher are the founders of Carl's Jr. 

This excellence was achieved when Karcher and his wife started their first business, a hot dog stand, on July 17, 1941 in Los Angeles, California when they borrowed $311 to start off their little business which later on in a couple of years started to expand into  them becoming owners of a restraunts. I really liked how they gave confidence to themselves and not giving up on their dreams of soon becoming owners or a great franchise.

 Reflection:
I really loved that even though they borrowed money to start their business together that they never gave up and that they had hope on one day being happy without worrying on working and living a great life in the future. I learned from this that if you reach for the goals that you are aiming towards, you should never give up because you will achieve your goal and even better you would want to achieve more goals that are more challenging and you you will feel very proud of yourself after it.
