Task 17: The world without humans

Effect/impact?

I want to make people aware of what a big impact we humans have on the world. This project is intended to give a deeper insight into how the world would develop without any human influence. What would happen to the houses/cars/streets/animals?

 

Methods/techniques/tools?

  • Survey with the students
  • Research on the Internet
  • Documentation on Youtube
  • Interviews with experts, if possible

 

What are the required steps for achieving the effect?

By interviewing different people and the surveys of students my project should get a good balance. This project should stimulate the readers to think and eventually some will begin to live more consciously and become aware of what people have done to the world.

 

Audience?

Teenagers as well as adults

Corona virus in Cuba and Switzerland

With whom do we want to build a collaboration?

With Savina’s aunt. She’s been living in Cuba for 8 years and knows the situation in the country pretty good. 

How so we want to build the collaboration?

We want to ask her about the current situation in Cuba with the corona virus and compare it to Switzerland. So we will create an interview and ask her the questions per skype or telephone.

Team: Savina&’Céline

Collaboration partners / concept

My goal is a collaboration across the United States and India / the middle east.

Since the project is about women who code/living as a digital nomad, I will defenitley contact my aunt, Eileen Brewer.
Maybe it would be interesting to chat with one of her students on how coding has changed their life.

I will simply text my aunt via Whatsapp and ask for a zoom meeting, so I can interview her.
I doubt that it would be possible to meet her in person (thanks to covid).

VV Project with Alina Collaboration Partner

Collaboration partner

We decided, that we want to collaborate with different people from all around the world for our project. We already have some ideas who our collaboration partners could be:

- Host family from Zimmi in Korea (Interview)

- Our friends and family

- classmates

- nutritionist (Prof. Dr. Christine Brombach)

We are now focusing on getting in touch with these people.

Konzept/Vorgehen:

 

Was ist die Wirkung, welche die Gruppe mit ihrer Aktion genau auslösen möchte? (effect/impact?)

 

  • Die Auswirkungen/ Vorteile / Mögliche Gefahren von AI ermitteln

 

Hauptaspekte --> Medizin, Bildung, Marketing/Finanzen, Agrarbewegung

 

Mit welchen Mitteln soll diese Wirkung erzielt werden? (methods/techniques/tools?)

Recherche von diversen Quellen

 

 

  • Podcast Diskussion über AI

 

Wie (mit welcher Strategie) soll diese Wirkung erzielt werden? (What are the required steps for achieving the effect?)

 

Eine sorgfältige Recherche von Quellen, bereits geführten Interviews mit Persönlichkeiten wie z.B. Elon Musk, Marc Zurckerberg… ect. Auswerten und Erkenntnisse reflektieren.

 

 

Wer ist das Zielpublikum? (audience?)

  • Eine Informatik / Wirtschaftlich interessierte Zielgruppe

Heart project: How ecological are electric cars

What exactly is the effect that the group wants to trigger with its action?

Electric cars are considered by society to be enormously environmentally friendly and energy efficient.

But we set out to find out whether this is really true or whether a conventional combustion engine is not so bad after all.

What are the means by which the intended effect is to be achieved?

Through research and a specialist, we will investigate this question and come to a conclusion with confidence. A work colleague works in the car industry and can give us even more details about electric cars

How is this effect to be achieved?

  • A few questions might be:

How harmful to the environment is the production compared to a gasoline engine?

How does it compare in use?

We also want to make comparisons with diagrams 

Who is the target audience?

Our project is open to all. We also want to address especially people who have not thought much about the impact of cars on the environment until now.

Heart-Project - Reducing plastic waste

Project: Reducing plastic waste 

Team: Angela Diljak & Liranda Kurtesi

Effects:

We want people to realize how much plastic waste is created during the day and that it effects us negatively. 

Methods:

We want to inform people on how much plastic is used for ready-made foods and how all of the plastic effects our environment. Also we're going to make an effort to reduce our personal use of it to set a good example. 

Strategy:

We're going to research how many greenhouse gases are created for the production of plastic packaging, then we're going to write a report on how that effects our environment. After that we're going to monitor how much waste we create ourselves and try to find ways to reduce that amount. We might do a survey to see how many people buy wrapped food to see how bad the situation really is.

Audience:

Students and working people that tend to eat out a lot. But really anyone is welcome to read our article. 

Tap water in different countries

Project: Tap water (around the world)

Team: Emina Murtic und Sandrina Nauer

Effects:

We want to draw people’s attention to how easily / hard some people have access to drinking water and how people in different countries (have to) deal with (tap) water etc.

Which method do we want to use?

  • Interview with people from other countries
  • Survey in the street/internet how people think about this topic
  • Research in the internet
  • Check it in our everyday life (How do we have to deal with tap (water)

Strategy:

We will apply the above methods, document everything accurately and hopefully achieve our desired goals.

Audience:

Everyone that is interested.
