C-Project: Work plan [04.03.2022]

A) Planned:

Today's goal is to have our survey approved by our teacher. After that, we'll be continuing to draft the text together.

Regarding collaboration: Still not very collaborative. We have to be stricter with them, so we'll set them a deadline for the material they were asked to hand us in.

Project bubbles before:

  • Survey (9/10)
  • C-project tasks (6/10 - we didn't work on this today)
  • Media-material collection (0/10 - we still haven't received anything)
  • Add/post everything on the horse (?/10 - we didn't work on this today)

 

B) Achieved:

The survey is finally in circulation. We're waiting on people to participate in our survey and we're extending our research on plastic pollution (for our text drafts). We're also looking forward to creating a login for the "don't waste my energy !" website for the web-publishing.

Project bubbles after: 

  • Survey (10/10 - released)
  • C-project tasks (6/10 - we didn't work on this today)
  • Media-material collection (0/10 - we still haven't received anything)
  • Add/post everything on the horse (?/10 - we didn't work on this today)

Searching Sponsors

We have sent a sponsorship request to the Green party:

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren

Mein Name ist Leara Krohne und ich absolviere derzeit meine Lehre zur Kauffrau mit Berufsmaturität.

Im Moment arbeiten wir in der Schule an unseren Umweltprojekten. Meine Teampartnerin, Jasmina Edattukaran und ich möchten gerne den Plastikverbrauch beim Einkaufen verringern und wollen zu diesem Thema ein Experiment durchführen. Die Idee ist, ein so genanntes "Shopping Kid" zu erstellen und dieses in verschiedenen Ländern zu verteilen. Es sollte anschliessend dokumentiert werden wie viel Plastik gebraucht wird mit und ohne diese Utensilien.

Zu diesem "Shopping Kid" gehört unter anderem ein Stoffbeutel. Da wir leider kein Budget von der Schule zur Verfügung haben, sind wir auf der Suche nach Sponsoren. Es würde uns sehr freuen, Sie als Sponsor für unser Projekt gewinnen zu können. Wir sind um jeden Franken dankbar.

Ich stehe Ihnen für Fragen gerne zur Verfügung.

Vielen Dank für Ihre Rückmeldung.

Freundliche Grüsse
Leara Krohne und Jasmina Edattukaran 

C-Project Task 12: Team work collaboration projects

At the moment we are collecting our trash for two weeks. We started on Monday, February 28. We will collect our waste until Sunday, January 13. 
We are happy that we could fix the data with our collaboration partner, my cousin in the Netherlands. Because the communication is rather difficult, because our partner has a full-time-job.

We will ask our partners to send a few pictures of themselves and their collected waste. Then we will also see how much waste she has consumed within two weeks compared to us. We will share our experiences, difficulties, highlights and more from those waste-collection weeks.

Starting Monday, January 14, Yara, me and our Collaborationpartner will reduce our waste consumption as much as possible.

Best regards,

Yara and Julie

State of the art

Upadate:

We came up with one idea, to link our project and our self-experiment to the subject environment. 

We will point out and describe the environmental-ethical problems of sugar consumption. Sugar is obtained from the sugar beet, which is a plant, and in order to plant a plant, various economic and environmental steps take place.
So we will determine to what extent the consumption of sugar affects the environment.

A comparison between the Swiss and the American Sugar-consumation.

Task 9 - After the experience / post production

As you can see in our post "Task 8 - The Experience" we have some ideas. At the moment we are in the process of collecting all our information. Pictures and other documents are in progress.

We have now collected all the questions for our collaboration partners and for the experts in Switzerland. We are now ready to send them out and are excitedly waiting for the answers and the results. 

 

Teamwork: Lara & Brian

Today Achievements

Today we have achieved a lot. After a low blow, things can only go up.
We were finally able to make our survey ready to share, we did this via instagram, the class, e-mail to the school building or whatsapp. We started evaluating the interviews and have already posted the links via Insta.
