STEM Reflection #1

What might have helped me pick my theme?

Something that helped me pick my theme was my interest and passion for this field of science. For quite a few years I’ve always thought about how we could replicate an earth environment in space.

What was my initial approach? How did it change?

My initial approach was going to be an infographic about this subject, but further research has shown that there is quite a bit of information that I may not be able to fit on a proper poster/infographic that would still allow the reader to understand but also enough information about the subject to be on the poster.

How will I demonstrate creativity and innovation in this project?

I will demonstrate my creativity innovation in this project by possibly designing a solution or environment which would be practical for my research question.

What are my next steps in completing my project? What might be some challenges?

My next steps in completing my project is by doing further research into my topic and outlining the key factors that will allow plant life to develop in space. Some challenges I might have to face is getting relevant and credible data as information about certain factors may be limited.
