Planet Guardians - Project Introduction

Tuesday March 8, 2011 - Joe The Frog

Tenth Session - Planet Guardians - Aplication phase

In this phase of the project Planet Guardians students continue to develop the product which was assigned to its subgroup and also keep using all the knowledge learned in the preparation phase using Thinkquest.org.

During this week's work on the products continued, although attendance in the classroom was not the best and we miss a day of Internet. But nothing will prevent the Planet Guardians do their job:


Let's take an eye in our products:


1) Scientific Article - MS Publisher 2007

Planet Guardian member, Susan, working in the scientific article in MS Publisher 2007. Susan is member of the The Green Hornets subgroup. This subgroup has the duty of create the scientific article of the data results and analisys of the Sabana Llana investigation.

2) Data Results and Analisys Presentation - Logger Pro and MS Power Point 2007

The subgroup The Guardians Dreamers working in the Data Results and Analisys Presentation.

This subgroup has to create the data tables and graphs for the mathemathic analisys of the results. They will create a presentation of this results and then convert the presentation in a image format for the use of the ArcGIS Explorer mapping subgroup .

3) ArcGIS Explorer - Dynamis Model map

The Green Brain subgroup has the commission to work on the dynamic model of water quality research in the Sabana Llana stream in ArcGIS Explorer.

The map will include the data we collect using Vernier LabQuest. We will also have the analysis of the results obtained in the investigation of water quality in the Quebrada Sabana Llana and in addition we have pictures of the tables and graphs showing the results of this research.


4) Documentary Video - Adobe Premier

The video documentary are the products that more work is needed because there are to do various tasks within the development. Subgroup Discovery Kids has the job of creating a video documentary to show the entire research process, its purpose, application and solution to the problem of water pollution issue.

They are using Adobe Premier for the editing of the video clips taken in the field trips and in the classroom. Students will use media as images, video clips, music, narration and text to make this video documentary. All these resources have been taking as the project continues in its development.

5) Planet Guardians Blog - Blogger.com

The subgroup Natural Beauties Blog will touch the project work. The student Liana and her team is working hard on developing the Blog. Are creating entries for each meeting of the blog and these are accompanied by some pictures and video clips for the enjoyment of visitors, we hope you like it.

6) Participation in Thinkquest.org assessments tools

Another important objective of the Planet Guardians project is the collaboration and participation in the "assessment" tools in Thinkquest.org. The subgroups divide their tasks. Technology experts are working on products with José Hernández and researchers are participating and collaborating in the platform Thinkquest.org where the project is published with the relevant tasks for each part that makes this project Planet Guardians.

And this story will continue....

Meeting #10 Team Work in Action!

Planet Guardians students continue to create products of the research project water quality of the creek Sabana Llana. The sub groups are are divided into two groups: data analytics experts and technologies. The analytes are completing the analysis of results obtained with Vernier technology in the data sheet and are also participating in the forums created in the Thinkquest.org platform . Technology experts are adding content and applying all the skills learned in the preparation phase. During the next 2 weeks we will have the first project's final products. Good luck to the members of Planet Guardians and continue working.
