EE Happiness
Today was what we call a global concerns day, the theme was happiness and we had everything that makes students happy. Short presentations by their friends, chocolate biscuits at break, hamburgers for lunch and a free block. It was also the day for something that can lead to happiness but sometimes doesn't, the extended essay choice deadline. This year we are implementing an EE contract between student and supervisor to try to encourage all parties to keep to deadlines. I am quite good at beating deadlines so no problem from my end. This year I've got 7 or 8, maybe 9 EE's (I've lost track). There are some interesting topics including.
- Using refraction in magic illusions.
- Car design and drag
- wireless electricity
- resonance of wine glasses
- The performance of a battery at different temperatures
- Something to do with aerodynamics
- Swimming?
- Magnus effect
