For the Lanterns of Love project, my group consisted of Hailey Sena and Alex Murguia. My group and I worked pretty well together and we didn’t have any issues arise. We agreed on almost all the ideas however some things were changed without asking the other group members. I think I could improve as a group member by being a little more efficient and sticking to my ideas.
I’m glad that we dove into Shakespeare in Humanities because I really like analyzing his writing. I learned interesting things about relationships from anthropology like the topic on arranged marriages and how they affect the community. I also learned some skills in communication with strangers and interviewing them which is something I can use considering I help run the Humans of HTHNC page. I used Humanities thinking a lot throughout the project like each time we visited Brookedale or when we were just collaborating with our group.
Going into the Physics portion I understood the basics of circuits, and leaving it I understand the fundamentals of electricity and circuit making. I learned about electrons and their transfers from one thing to another, and currents, amps, and voltage. I had a misconception about electricity that was changed after I learned more about it. We used this information in our project to create a circuit in one of our lanterns.
In engineering I learned how to use a breadboard to make light. There’s certain rows that wires need to be in to make a connection. I applied my knowledge from Physics to supply the correct power so that the light wouldn’t burn out. It surprised me at first how the light bulb had to have two different connections but it quickly made sense.
Exhibition was cool because I met with the adult couple our group interviewed. They really liked all the things we made even the things that weren't for them. The final lantern I thought looked really cool, and the final puzzle piece wasn’t my favorite because Alex changed the design. For work ethic, collaboration, oral communication, written communication, and content knowledge I would give myself between an A and A+ for them all. I feel strongest in my ability to build circuits because I understand what needs to be connected to what and I would help other groups with them. I think I need work on figuring out power in physics because I don’t have it 100% down.
