The Binoculars (Sci Service Learning)

• What are three big issues that create problems that our service is trying to address?
The three issues are: pollution hazards, the affects of pollution on humans, and the effects of pollution on the planet.


• What else could be done to change the situation:
o Locally people can stop pollution by taking the bus instead of driving or even using Hybrid vehicles. People can even clean up their neighborhood.

o Nationally people can stop throwing away products that can be recycled and used for other things.

o Internationally countries can research more evironment friendly forms of energy, like Solar power or nuclear power.

• How will service learning change your future behaviors/attitudes/and career? In my future career I will be more concerned with the health of my world, than myself. Instead of using products that effect my environment, I'll buy products that help my environment. Like using bottles that have alot of plastic in them or recycle my aluminium cans and containers

• How is the issue/agency you're serving impacted by what is going on in the larger political/social sphere? Pollution is a big topic in the government and whoever is the president will decide whether Americans will stop contributing to CO2 omissions. Global Warming is one the most talked issue in the world, for it effects everyone on the planet, even the animals.

Service Learning

This week for service learning we grouped up in another group. We are now also researching Fire Detectors and are making a commercial to explain to reasons why to have Fire Detectors. Me and Nassir Williams are making the commercial and have alright started getting clips to put in it. The clips are of flaming houses and children in their beds, the children clips are for dramatic effect.

I'm the lead group and I've research some they helpful things that I think will more our survey much more effective.  Such as the dangers of lead poisoning during child birth and the long term effects. Brain damage, growth stoppage, and even death.  

Service Learning Reflection

On thursday, for service learning I researched the types of pollutions that are silent killers. There are dozens of house-hold chemical that can be harmful to humans. There even more that are not in the house, but in the environment.  My role in the  Pollution group is to work on the computer, I basically copy and keep track of where the group is. I keep details about the types of pollutions the group comes up with. This week I am going to bring some new things I thought of into the group.  

N.H.D Reflection

N.H.D was a very stressful time during this school year. I've never experience anything like it, you have deadlines, you must have primary sources for your paper, and you gotta create a bibliography then revise all of it. My project for N.H.D was the United States Marine Corps, I wrote a 2000 word paper on them. My thesis was the Confederate Marine Corps made by the Confederate States of America , during the Civil War. The Confederate Marines were soldiers that fought in the Civil War (1861-1865), they were modeled after the U.S Marine Corps. Marines are trained to fight on board Naval vessels, in amphibious assaults, and since the development of the aircraft, to fight in the air also.   During this project I learned to managing my time and to controlling my stress level. It was very stressful to research a project that partially no one wants or even thinks about researching. I am proud that I was able to write a 2000 word paper. I didn't think I could've done my paper without help from my teachers. I don't know what my grade is, but I hope I get A.
