Passion Project Reflection

on March 26, 2018

I just finished my passion project. I am studying the science of technology of trains. we had 6 weeks to to do it. The 6 weeks were broken up into 3 parts.  In the first two weeks we had to do research. The second 2 weeks we either had to do an interview or we had to go on a site visit. I did an interview. I interviewed a train engineer. He worked for a company called urban engineers. Here’s a link to the company: http://urbanengineers.com/

The last two weeks was creating a final project. We had a couple options of to present our project the choices were ted talk or we could do a we video. I chose the ted talk. I chose the ted talk because I thought it fit best with my topic. The way I created my ted talk was by making a slideshow of images on google slides. When I presented my passion project the image slideshow played behind me while I spoke about what the audience the images.

I spoke about many things, The first thing I talked about one thing I spoke about was the first self moving train the puffing devil and I compared it to a train under construction called Hyperloop 1 I compared the speeds. Hyperloop 1 is a lot faster than the puffing devil, then I talked aabout how Hyperloop 1 was able to go so fast. Another thing I talked about was maglev. Maglev stands for magnetic levitation. What that means is that the train floats above the track. The last thing I talked about was how the trains in the us could go a little faster.

I thought doing this project was really interesting. It was a lot of work but It was definitely worth it. I would definitely do it again.
