Cycle 2_Week 8

Technology has helped me as a student because for one, I'm much better with using technology. It has also helped me because I got to finish my work quicker and faster like if I need to make a word document I can do it on Google Docs and send it to my teacher. I've done very well in our science class technology class. I've kept up and I excelled in the learning of technology. What I did well was my blogs. In our blogs, I learned how to use some good websites, another way of communication on line, and I learned a lot of science by working on blogs. Since I gave my best, I don't think I could have done anything better. My suggestion for blogging in the future is to have teammates post questions, and their teammates can research it and comment answers. That way they all learn something new.

Cycle 2_Week 7

The oil spill I am writing about is the Ixtoc 1 spill. The reason why this oil spill occured is because the Ixtoc 1 oil well suffered a blow out(uncontrollable release of crude oil after the pressure systems fail). Cause of the spill: the crew workers were removing the pipe, mud flowed out and following the mud came oil and gas. The oil and gas met the operating pump motors which exploded and caused a fire. The location of the spill was in the Bay of Campeche off Ciudad del Carmen, Mexico. The type of oil that was leaking was a heavy crude oil because it came from deeper within the ocean's floor. The amount of oil that leaked in this spill was about 140,000,000 gallons. Another fact I learned was that this spill was and still is ranked the largest oil spill ever. I also learned that this spill was hard to clean up because it mixed in with the water and became a thick liquid.

Comment for Reesha Taylor:I agree with Tinkerbell. What influenced you to become an engineer. You did a nice job though. But you needed a little more detail.

Comment for Jhoel Lemus:Nice job Jhoel. You were very descriptive. You did good.

Cycle 2_Week 6

Some of the careers engineers are involved in are involved in includes working with mechanics, the environment, and marine and ocean life. These careers all show a different side to engineering. They also take us a little deeper into the many different qualities engineering can give. In mechanical engineering you can create new inventions, ranging from toys to car engines. In environmental engineering you can come up with new ways to help save the environment and keeping it safe. In marine engineering you can make boats and anything else that deals with the ocean. If I had to choose between any careers in engineering, I'd choose environmental engineering because then I could come up with ways to save the earth. But I don't really want to become an engineer.
