We, P.E.E.L., would like to reflect on this blog for our last post. We will share our experiences for the past five posts.
What's our blog for?
This blog served as our fourth quarter project/creative expansive output (CEO). And we were tasked to creatively express our opinions on recent scenarios about our recent field trip to the Pawikan Conservation Center and the Bataan Nuclear Power Plant. Our Science teacher "urbanguru" made guide questions, the answers of which were to be included in each post.
BTW here's our guide questions for this blog from the blogging project 3.0:

BTW here's our guide questions for this blog from the blogging project 3.0:
- What is your fourth quarter final CEO (The Blogging Project)? Give a brief introduction.
- How did you prepare for it?
- Did you encounter any problem/s as you prepare for the said project? If yes, how did you resolve those problems? If none, what made it easy for you to prepare for it?
- Given the chance to do this CEO all over again, would you still do it? Why or why not?
- How do you think this CEO can be further improved?
- Will you change anything regarding how this CEO was handled? If yes, what would that be? If none, why not?
- What is the most important lesson that you learned from this CEO?
Death Scourge
We prepared this with all our effort put
into it. How? We basically gathered together to discuss our next move in our
blog, or team collaboration. And if we ever needed help, we would ask the urbanguru.
If he suggests something then we discuss if this would fit the theme. Though,
we had teamwork we still encountered problems. Like failing of posting our blog
because of some technical difficulties and sometimes we couldn’t contact each
other. We, of course, had to deal with these disgracing problems. We
successfully were able to solve these problems by helping and teaching each
other how to post properly and put more load to our phones. If I, Death
Scourge, was given a chance to do this CEO all over again “Count me in”. I said
in the start that I wouldn’t want to do this, but looking at the adventure we
just did I can’t deny. The most important lesson that I learned from this CEO
is that there is always destruction in every second of our world. We are slowly
stepping into a world of disasters. And, especially, the Sea Turtle there millions of them and now there is like 1% or less of them. Why? Because of what
we are doing right now, and when we don’t have Earth anymore, where will we go?
We have to start now, “Don’t do tomorrow what you could do today”.

Ace of Spades
Here's my point of view... as Death Scourge said, we prepared by meeting up, calling each other then discussing what we would put in the next post. Some problems we encountered on the way were: communication, and lack of creativity. That is why for our last blog we really want to voice out our ideas. I would definitely do this project again because this project makes us aware of the need for clean energy as our country develops and rises in the world. If we could do this project over, we would add more widgets, pictures and personal opinions. I really think that there is no need to further change the mechanics of this CEO because it is challenging without being extremely difficult. It taught us the value of preparation, communication and team work. We need to improve our work habits, manage time wisely and make use of every hour we have. So much can be done within this time.
The Unknown
Our
preparations were pretty simple; all we had to do were to answer the questions
and give them to our Orion Constellation and Ace of Spades which they then put
in our answers into the blog itself. We
had some problems along the way. Day 1 was in a hotel relaxing when I
completely forgot about our project, so I wasn’t able to make any
contributions. We got rid of that problem by just sending our contributions
through Facebook. I
would do this again; It is fun to express your own opinions (now I see why
people enjoy blogs). This
Ceo can be further improved by not only adding what we’ve learned during the
fieldtrips but in everyday school as well. I wouldn't change anything about the CEO,
because it was okay as it is. Although I learned that working
alone must be nerve wrecking.
Orion Constellation
We prepared for it by, asking ourselves, "What would
we put in our blog?", and then we all agreed what answers we should
put. If all is wrong, we ask help from Teacher Rye. During the blogging, one of
our fellow groupmate left the city. We had difficulty contacting him and he was
not able to contribute until now. We
resolved it by asking him the question when he got back from his trip. If I
were given the chance to do this CEO all over again, I would still do it. This
is because our group could have done better if we contacted each other more
often then we could have gotten a better result. I think our CEO could be
improved by adding more pictures and multimedia. We lacked in pictures and
multimedia because we did not have the knowledge of adding these type of media.
Additional Fun Facts:
1. Nuclear power provides 9% of the electicity in United states of America. Worldwide, it provides approximately 15-19% of the worlds energy.
2. 1 uranium pellet is equivalent to about 1,000 kilograms of coal. Or 2,000 coal pellets.
3. Since 1973, Power plants have saved at least $44 billion dollars for energy.
4. Nuclear power leaves no pollution into the air. The smoke you see is actually steam.
5. In some countries, nuclear power plants produce over 80% of the energy.
6. Nuclear Power Plants are a attractive target for terrorists.
7. The U.S. saves $12 billion dollars each year for energy costs because of Nuclear power.
8. Nuclear/radioactive waste must be stored for thousands of years.
9. For every uranium atom split by a neutron, two more neutrons pop out.
10. Surprisingly no people have died working for Nuclear Power Plants.... Except for Chernobyl... Although only 50 people died in that huge accident.... Not very much.... Compared to Car accidents.
