Final Blog Post

Our group went though many struggles but was still able to pull out a successful project at the end of the quarter.  Our group first tried to install new paper towel dispenser to reduce waste and stop the frequent jamming of the current paper towel dispensers.  We were well on our way into that project when we heard the bad news that we had to halt our current project and restart from scratch.  Our next project was to install bag hangers in the boys and girls bathrooms.  We first needed to construct our new proposal and detailed design which went by quickly
since we were in a tight bind for time.  Thanks to Mr. Blake
he was able to set us up with the people to install our hooks
before they were approved by Mrs. Martin.  In the mean while
we were able to set up a pre survey asking if people would use our new idea.  Although we did not get as much responses as we wanted, the people who did vote said they would want it to be seen in the bathrooms.  At the end, we thought that this project was a success and that people really do use it now.  I feel that this was a great project because it teaches us what actual scientist go through.  It also teaches us how to stay on task because we have a lot of time on our hands.  Over all i enjoyed this project and working with my group.  It gave me a new way on how to view physics in the real world, it also helped me to learn more about the actual process in an experiment.
