In my STEM class we interviewed our piers to find out what their STEM projects we're going to be about.
I interviewed Mikayla
Here's her project;

1. What are you doing your project on?

I am researching Colon Cancer.

2. What kind or research are you going to be doing?

I will research how it starts and the technology used to detect it.

3. Are you going to do an actual project or just a research paper?

I am going to do a research paper.

4. Is this a one year project or are you going to be working on this for the new few years?

I will work on this for the next few years because something new could break out.

5. What kind of medical help are you going to be researching?

I will look for how it is treated.

6. Are you going to find out what causes this disease?

Yes, I will.

In my biology class we had to do a power point about the different types of organelles in a cell.
Here's mine.

STEM requires you to do a project at the end of every year.
It could be a project that you do over our high school career, or just for this year.

When i get older i want to do something in the criminology field, there fore i want to put that into my project along with the teachings of STEM.

I have multiple ideas however;
-To reseach how to tell when and how a person died
-To learn how you can tell what kind of bullet was shot, and when
-The different ways to evalutate evidence

Right now i don't have very much information, but if you know how i could get ahold of anyone that could be a mentor please let me know.

I will be updating as my project is coming along.

A couple weeks ago in my math class we had a lady named Ms.Cooper come in and talk to us about tracking hurricanes and some systems that can tell us all about different hurricanes.
We did a project on this, i did mine on the hurricanes in Maryland. Here's what i found;

About 16 major hurricanes have hit Maryland, the names of the major ones are:
Jeanne (9-29-2004)
Hazel (10-15-1954)
Connie (8-13-1955)
Ivan (9-18-2004)

About 99 total hurricanes have hit Maryland, and about 97% of Maryland has been hit by a hurricane.

The center point of Maryland is 38.922 latitude, 76.59 longitude, and some cities in Maryland are Baltimore, Frederick, and Annapolis.

Because of technology I can understand the path of a hurricane, how strong they are, how long the last, and how far they can go. I am now more interested in hurricanes and want to find out more about them.
