Physics

1. Which location and time period did you choose to represent in your trebuchet design? How does your trebuchet represent this location and time period?

 

We modeled are trebuchet after the 13th century Mongolian time period, How we module this was by using material like wood and rock because the Mongolians did not have much access to metals.  

 

2. The 21st-century skills involved in this project were creativity, collaboration, critical thinking, and communication. Which of these skills do you feel was your strongest soft skill during this project? Which do you feel was your greatest area of growth? Reflect on and describe why you selected these skills, and support your response with direct evidence from the project.

 

My greatest strength in this project was critical thinking, I had to improvise my trebuchet constantly to get it to work and this required critical thinking. One strength I need to work on in this project is communication, I took over and practically built the whole thing by my self. I need to share more with my group and tell them what needs to get done. I really like the hands-on-ness of this project and it was one of the best so far.
