My Essential Question was “What does the future of engineering look like as our environment changes?” with a sub question of “Can I get a better understanding of the design[…]

This last week wasn’t the last push that I thought it would be, but I’m proud of the work I did. There was no feeling of culmination, it was more[…]

I’ve written many times about the sort of split nature of my essential question so I’ll spare you the definitions and just get right into it. In terms of research[…]

This week mostly consisted of textbook work again. It’s been about fluid power systems. There were no new revelations this week. Although I do notice that I’m getting better at[…]

The first, Civil Engineers and their Role in Adaptation in the face of Climate Change (link), was a bit more like an exclamation of what should be done. It felt[…]

I’ve never really officially worked with circuits, so I was ready to get to this part of the textbook. I learned a lot, but what I’m most proud of is[…]

This week textbook work wasn’t too exciting so I’ll opt out of talking about it for this blog post. Research, however, has been weirdly engulfing. I found good sources on[…]

I’m not gonna lie, I spent most of the rest of the week trying to catch up to a schedule I had set for myself. I hadn’t factored in the[…]

I finished that small design project. I solved for what I could, and figured out the basics for what I couldn’t. Turns out, the majority of the work in terms[…]

I know the big general concept of sustainability. I’ve heard them repeated to me over and over again, whether it be at home, school, or on the news. I know[…]
