The Sudoku Project • Santa Maria College • Emily Cvetanoski, Isha Patel, Hayley Turnham, Jacinta LiDonni, Tina Wu and Millie Kustra
What we believed science was Quotes from each student about what each thought-• “Physics has lots of math”• “Scientists are awkward”• “Physics is hard”• “Science is all concept”• “Physicists are generally old men.” • “lots of fact”• “Must be a child prodigy to make any real contribution.”
How is this project related to a real world problem?
How do the sciences work in an interdisciplinary way to achieve this?
What role does physics play?
• Skills and techniques found in all sciences work together • Knowledge from biology, chemistry, physics transcend across all fields • coherent x-‐ray imaging to increase knowledge in pharmaceuLcal and health
areas • Advances in technology – laser holograms – light diffracLon
• Understanding of physical world around us • How the earth and objects around us • By understanding this we can manipulate the world to our
advantage and enhance our society and lifestyle
Working with scienLsts is different to the inquiry and invesLgaLons we do at school as we are able to visualize real world applicaLons and through this gain a deeper understanding of our studies Benefits of working in school of physics: • InteracLve learning • Different technology compared to school • Apply knowledge through research and experiment • Work with scienLst and ask quesLons • Encouragement towards science • Share own experiences – not just concepts • Different environment
Challenging Stereotypes
The project goal
• Sudoku project – aimed to discover how iteraLon method used relates to other aspects of science and our world
• Assist in problem solving • Useful way of solving problems in future • Show us how scienLst discover diffracLon data • Show us how it assists in discovery of DNA, holograms, enigma code
Why Should We care about the Research here?
• Allows us to develop further theories and discoveries in an effecLve manner • Develop further knowledge about our society and our Earth which allows us to
enhance it • Helps people and improves quality of life • Works along with other aspects of science • Allows us to be science literate
How is it relevant to Community and Society?
• Science literate society has beVer understanding of the world • Take measures to protect our environment • Understand more about medicine to increase life expectancy and save lives • Take measures to lower economic costs with less expensive and more readily
technology available • Assist lifestyle in 3rd world countries • VersaLle and affordable technology
How Has Our View of Science or ScienLsts Changed?
• ScienLsts aren't what the media represent it to be • Funnn! J • Not just theory – pracLcal • Physics is achievable • Transferable skills • Can be Lme consuming • Not revolved around maths • Not just male dominated
Are we capable, do we belong?
• In relaLon to our capabiliLes, we have changed our views of our capaciLes to do the sciences especially physics as we have realised it is not impossible to understand.
• Our concepts of belonging to this group of careers has changed as we have realised the array of unique opportuniLes that can stem from this innovaLve field of study.
What Have We Learnt?
• Experimental techniques • Being able to analyze data accurately • Use different instruments such as Spectrometer • Team Work • Organization • Problem Solving • Communication • Observation • Deeper and more thoughtful thinking
What choices have opened up to me In Possible Career Choices?
• By seeing the connecLon of what scienLsts do and how they contribute to real world problems can change lives for us and change socieLes, we believe that physics is the understanding of all aspects in the physical world and can applied in any circumstance.
How has being part of GTP changed my appreciaLon for physical science?
• I find physics easier and think that it is easy to do and experiment after having proper understanding about what we are doing
• Science is not all just about specific facts but can actually be fun and exciting
• Science is in everything • Science is interactive through GTP • It is a subject that anyone is capable of completing • Science can be pursued by those who feel that they are not
clever as long as there is persistence Society requires science
• It is more entertaining than generalised school work!
