Human Body Project Reflection
1. Some successes and challenges during the process of working on our model were creating the idea of our model, and figuring out the solutions to the flaws in our project. When we were first creating our project model ideas, the plans sounded easy, straight forward, and well thought out. On the contrary, the plans that we had didn't succeed, and we had to retry. Our projects had many challenges, but by working together, we solved the issues.
2. The main things that worked in our final product was that the heart pump showed how the system worked well. Also, the dialysis tubing worked extremely well to explain how capillaries work. The main things that didn't work in our project model were that the dye didn't show as red very well with our heart pump. Also, it was frustrating to me that our project required us to move it. I would have preferred it to work on its own.
3. The most common feedback that the judges gave us was clarifying parts of the project, and testing our knowledge of the circulatory system. Also, they thought that we might have wanted to use a pump that was more similar to the heart in look as well as function.
