Aug 20 Google Docs and Passive solar

I. We need to talk about sharing data. One way we can share data is a shared worksheet

 Another way is to share with everyone, but that starts to create a huge number of shared documents. How can we fix this? My thought: One person creates a document and shares it with everyone immediately. Everyone types on that shared document. Since we didn't do that Friday, we will need to do something else. Decide who has the MASTER Document. Open it, and rename it Sun Facts 1 (Table ___) Change the sharing settings to 'anyone with the link can edit). Copy all the information from your Friday work into the document. When you get done, everyone except the Master Document will be deleted.


 II. Using your knowledge of passive solar energy, predict where you think a marshmallow would best be placed to make it warm and gooey using the sun. III. We will be going out in the front of the building. You will have a marshmallow and a piece of paper. At the end of the 15 minute period, we will check the temp with a Raytek gun. After that, you will need to decide how well your prediction matches your data (the temperature, and a gooeyness test)


III.  Watch the video:
