Some of the activities that I enjoy at school include chess club, the joy of reading club and patrolling. I assist in a Sunday school class at my church where I help the teacher of a class of children in jk/sk. Some of my hobbies are building characters out of clay, drawing and reading. Every summer I participate in a science camp where I explore many fascinating areas of science and technology. My favourite activity during the summer is soccer, which I have played since I was 4 years old. In the future, I would like to be an engineer, because I would like to apply my creativity and my knowledge to create, design and explore new and innovative technology. |
| Matthew Podolak Algae Goes Green
Division: | Génie et sciences de l'informatique / Technologie automobile | Catégorie: | Junior | Région: | Simcoe County | Ville: | Barrie, ON | École: | Holly Meadows E.S. | Sommaire: | This project studied the factors that influenced algae growth and determined if algae could be used to filter harmful emissions from car exhaust. Growth was measured using a microscope and emissions were measured at an emissions testing facility. Algae growth increased when CO2 was added and algae was found to absorb hydrocarbons and CO2 from car exhaust. |
