First Science Project ; “Meals on Wheels”

Register project on e-Portfolio: explain how it started, what you had to do, how your team worked, what you discovered, etc, etc, etc. Upload your presentation to your e-Portfolio. Write a self-evaluation: how did this project contribute to your science knowledge? How was it for you to work on different skills (leadership, organizational, time management, teamwork, etc)?


At the first time when we started the project, I was almost like have no idea about it. I came to the international school last semester, and it was my first time to heard about the nutrients.... and a PROJECT??!!!?

The main point of the project was to do the research and discuss about the each menus (there were three different menus), and choose the one which is the healthiest and also to choose the one which is good for the long term diet, or the short term diet. 

Our Group chose Menu 2 as the best diet plan, because it has plenty of nutrients and also balanced. We thought that the healthy diet would be better for customers, and compare to other menus, Menu 2 has the exact idea what we wanted. 


Team evaluation 
At the first time we started the project, we did't use the class time much. I was almost day-dreaming and had no idea how to deal with this nutrients.

Second class time, now we discussed more about how are we going to solve this problem and we divided the role, such as... 'researching, making the power-point, understanding about the nutrients' and so on. 


My job for this project was to research about the all the foods in menu #1, and analyze about it. I should have to know which nutrients are in the food, how those nutrients work in our body, and what happen if we don't have enough nutrients.
And I discovered that there are the 6 most important nutrients which affects a lot to our body, and how the body use those nutrients as a energy. However, our body don't use nutrients as a energy, but also they are essential for cell growth, maintenance and repair. Nutrients provide energy to enable your body to function efficiently. Nutrients, along with fiber and water, are essential to your good health. :D 
And the self evaluation, I will say that I should more concentrate on my work during the class, than doing all the works at home. The researching at home might be easier for my, but doing the research, asking and discussing that I don't know well is also the importance and the reason why we are doing the team project.
