There were not many changes in the results from a few weeks ago the only change was the nail in the insilica gel had minor rust on it but all the others stayed the same. i was expecting this to happen because very rarely does know change at all happen if there is something in it.

In todays practical we used many different chemicals such as Litimus blue mixed with a combination of other chemicals to see what would happen and the most common change was colour which is what we were looking for in the practical. Around 2 or 3 times the colour stayed the same but it would have got more clowdy or more specific features which could not be seen with human eyes.

We have completed i think about 6 of 8 practicals and they have gone great receiving almost identical results to what the practical was expected to be. We have always worn our safety gear in which i think the safety goggles are most important because they are like a shield for your eyes. I have enjoyed all the practicales so far and look forward to doing more with a successful mark next to them.

1. How is the research going?

we have all completed our research exept for 1 person who was away a few times. We have all had an allocated research topic for a certain topic on the Britannica sheet of paper. we have detailed our research with full references and full detail of the subject topic.

2. What do you know about imovie? What other multimedia possibilities have you considered for your presentation?

I have thought of using different multimedia programs like windows movie maker but i and the group think imovie has a great deal of detail so we are most likely going to use imoie.

 

Scenario 1: You are on a train coming home from a day at the beach. The train stops at a station and a group a youths get on the train and start bashing an elderly ethnic man. You notice people getting off the train. 
 Discuss what you would do in this situation.

I would first call the cops and report this group as i cannot take it in my own hands but i would try settle the group down so the elderly man doesnt get more injured then he already is.

 Scenario 2: You get a message from a girl that you are interested asking you to come over her house. When you get there a number of her friends are present and they say they are bored. One of them promotes the idea of going for a walk and causing a riot. At first you tell them “No way”. However, the girl you like states that “she will like you more if you go”.Discuss what you would do in this situation.

I would say to the girl that if this is what you want me to do then im not going to do it as i am moral mature and ino what descision to make especially if my conscience is informed with my thoughts.
