My overall experience designing my Rube Goldburg was fun because I got to experiment with different simple machines. Making my video was also fun because I got to show what I had been working on. The final project took me around 3 hours but it was worth it. It took me 3 tries but super cool and fun to do. Over all my favorite project yet.
Here is my video
My Capstone topic is about cakes and my main inquiry question is “how does Indian cuisine incorporate baking into cultural celebrations.” My sub questions to help me research more are, What are some main desserts that are eaten at Indian celebrations, are there any dishes similar to cake in Indian cuisine, how are cakes used in Indian traditions similar to how Americans use them and how are they different, what celebrations do cakes play a role in Indian traditions/ celebrations, and what is the recipe for a basic Indian cake
For our rube goldburg project we had to come up with a general idea and sketch it out. The process of testing out my sketch wasn’t difficult but wasn’t easy either. When I first started experimenting with my design I started with parts of it then realized that some of my sketch work didn’t fit and didn’t work so I added other things instead.
