Entrepreneurship

In our exploration, we divided to four teams. In each team have 3 members. My team name Cambodia Phone Holder (CPH). The reason that our group choose that idea because a lot of people have a problem with their phone for example if they put the phone on the desk and someone come and they didn’t saw the phone so they might step on it or sit on it. Our design creates by 123d design. Then we print our product in the 3D printer. The 3D printer is is a machine that use plastic to create something.

Here is our website that we create:

Before contact with the West, staple foods included yam, taro, banana, coconut, sugarcane, tropical nuts, greens, pigs, fowl, and seafood. After contact, other tropical crops (manioc, plantain, sweet potato, papaya, mango) and temperate crops (cabbage, beans, corn, peppers, carrots, pumpkin) were added to the diet. Rural people typically produce most of what they eat, supplementing this with luxury foods (rice and tinned fish) purchased in stores. The urban diet relies on rice, bread, and tinned fish supplemented with rural products. Port Vila and Luganville have restaurants that serve mostly the foreign and tourist communities.

Course Description: This course will provide students the introduction to physics, application to the daily life and the element of physics that is the branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy. The subject matter of physics will be included the earth’s gravity, movement of earth (kinds of rotation), work of force and energy. The students will be able to know about the importances of gravity and some phenomena caused by earth’s movement, value of earth gravity, relevance of gravitational force of earth and things’ weight on the earth; finding its value by using formula and keeping and conversion law of work of energies by  teacher’s demonstration and explanation and plus their more researches. The students will be emerged to establish questions or problems relevant to topic to discuss with one another or conduct  more researches with the unseen problems. The experiment will also be available for the relevant contents. Lastly, students will acquire awareness on what they will have learnt and be able to be aware of significance of physics related to the application to their daily lives and utilize that knowledge and share with other people.

In the classroom we learned a lot of things and we worked on projects in small groups.   Our projects were about Ecological Relationships, different biomes around the world, Food Web in Koh Kong, Makey Makey Project, and Science Museum Blog. Our highlights are to understand how important the plants and animal are. Also to know about different organizations that help the animals and to understand clearly about their goal and how can they help Cambodia.
