TKAM Literary Roller Coaster
The people who I worked with in my TKAM Literary Roller Coaster Project were Natalie Au and Alejandra Sandoval. I have already worked with the same people in a couple of the previous projects so we already new some of our strengths and weaknesses which was a really handy thing to know so we could map out who was going to do which. In this project we made a roller coaster based on the book To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. We had to incorporate both Humanities by putting literary devices in our coaster and Physics by calculating the Kinetic, Potential, and Mechanical energies in the coaster as well as the Velocity. In this project, I learned how to calculate certain energies better. One thing what went well was how productive we worked and how well we managed our time for the most part. One struggle that we had to overcome was that I forgot the energy audit at home and another group member left the blueprint at home so we recreated the blueprint and energy audit in the little time we had. One thing I did well was constructing the tracks for the roller coaster and putting the support beams on the roller coaster. One thing I could improve on would be a skills as an artist because if we didn't have anyone in my group be a good artist, the project would not have turned out the way it did. One thing I would change would be not forgetting the blueprint and energy audit.
