Hello! Within this blog post I will be reflecting on my last scimatics project ‘Time is Money’. In this project we created a product or service to sell and analyzed the income, time, and costs used. To accurately learn using the curricular competencies we also learnt some very important content, linear equations. The driving question […]

Eat, Sleep, Create Meiosis Models!
Hello! Within this blog post I will be reflecting on a new scimatics project that I finished called Meiosis Models. In this project we learnt about the process of both mitosis and meiosis and were tasked with showing these processes throughout accurate 3D models. The driving question for this project is “How is other reproduction […]
Metaphor Machines!!
Hello world, I’ve started a new scimatics project called ‘Metaphor Machines’. Throughout this project I was tasked to make a Rube Goldberg Machine that displayed the scientific method and and electric circuits. This project also had two driving questions which were “How can we represent the scientific method?” and “What factors affect the function […]
Alicia’s mPOL Post!
Declaration of Learning: “Thank you for coming to my presentation of learning. I am the expert on my own learning. I am also responsible and accountable for my own learning. You can expect me to give an honest evaluation of my progress. We will discuss my strengths and opportunities for growth. Thank you in advance for listening and […]
Chemistry Stories! (Wait both?! Yes!!!)
Hello, I’ve started a new scimatics project called ‘Chemistry Stories’. Throughout this project I was tasked to make an animation that showed an answer to the driving question, “How do the electron arrangements of atoms determine the chemical and physical properties of elements and compounds?”. Within this project I created elements that helped me create […]
Correlation vs. Causation
I’ve started a new Scimatics, partner, project called Correlation vs Causation. Throughout this project me and my partner, Nolan, were tasked to make a presentation that showed an answer to the driving question, “How are Correlation and Causation different?”. Within this project we created surveys, data charts, and a presentation. I will be going in-depth […]
Epidemic Exponents! The Board Game…
Hello world, This is the first blog post of my grade nine year. I’ve started this project with a driving question and a final task. The driving question for this project is “how does math make games more complex, interesting, and re-playable?”. To answer this question me and my partner, Theryn, made a board game […]
An Ultimate (Summative) 3D Post!
Hello world, I’ve started a new group project called “Ultimate design challenge”. The goal of this project is to make a 3D, group, model of an object that is maximized for ether volume or surface area (I chose an object for volume). To work up to this point (of making a 3D model) I had […]
Chemistry Coding…A Summative Blog Post!
Hello world, I’ve started a new project in Scimatics called “Chemistry coding”. This project was all about coding an interactive matter game or simulation (I made a simulation). This simulation was meant to showcase the behaviour of matter throughout the kinetic molecular and atomic theory. This was also the foundation of the driving question fro […]
Laser Laws…A Summative Blog Post
Throughout these weeks I’ve been working on a project called ‘Laser Laws’. This project is about representing mathematical ideas in different forms. The way I lead up to the understanding of representing mathematical ideas in different forms was by answering the driving question ‘How can we test the Pythagorean theorem and the law of […]
