Biotechnology – Designer Babies
PUBLISH
We will publish our project most likely in the future. We want to use social media to share our work possibly. We will show people the pros and cons of designer babies through things like Instagram, TikTok and more but that is still out for debate.
DEBRIEF
The process for this project went smoothly. We first did the graphic organizer, adding all of our information. Next, we typed it all up into a Sway. From there, we re-arranged, corrected and cleaned up the info. Lastly, we added photos, made stacks and overall just made it look cool. One thing I would do differently if I were to do this again is to skip the paper organizer and just type straight into the laptop. The paper to digital process took longer than we had hoped and since both of us aren’t the fastest typers, it ate up a lot of valuable time.
Stop Motion-Mitosis
This video is about Mitosis. It is a stop motion project.

Questions:
We chose to do the Mitosis because we didn’t think we would have time to do miosis. Initially, we were planning to but decided against it. We were correct. We had just enough time to complete the stop motion. The most challenging piece was getting it all together. We didn’t do a fantastic job of communicating outside of school to work and it set us back a little. The easiest part of making this was editing in the phases. We used Capcut to add in the names of each phase and it was very quick and very simple. We could improve the stop motion. It was slightly off and it felt very rushed. There were times when we had to go back almost a whole phase because we noticed something was in frame for a while. The main challenge is that we handed in our assignments late. we didn’t have enough class time to do the voice-over beforehand and we both had no free time to do it after school. Next, time, I will try and do the voice-overs through videos so that we can do them even if we aren’t together. Mitosis is very important because, over time, cells get damaged or tired and need to be replaced. if it didn’t, it would lead to a lot of issues. Things wouldn’t be able to grow. Miosis is important because it creates diversity and is essential for sexual reproduction.
Krypton
=========================================================================================
Reflection:
Some questions i needed to research for my project were “are krypton from DC and the one on the periodic table the same?” and “why is krypton called the hidden one?”. Familiar tools I used was google and office365. I have never used Sway before so that was very new to me. When we first got the assignment, i started researching about my element. I wrote down questions and draw diagrams for what i should add into my sketchbook. This helped me organize my work. The prosses overall was very smooth and wasnt very stressful but if i were to do this again, i would try and get more information.
