Unit 12.2 A school with a difference
The school holds weekly parliaments where anyone connected to the school can attend and propose ideas, though only teachers and students can vote. The parliament decides how to spend the school budget, whether to hire new teachers, and how to handle bullying cases. The principal thinks the parliament system is successful because the students take their responsibilities seriously and can make good decisions for the school. Students are encouraged to try a wide range of subjects when starting so they can find their interests, and are expected to work on further projects, help with gardening, or do homework when not in class.
Imaginary Invention- Cooking Man
The invention is a portable picnic box that can cook food using electrical energy or solar power. It has 4 wheels, a handle, a battery, and solar panel, allowing it to be dragged or carried anywhere. The box presents menu options and recommends ingredients after the user inputs what they have. The user selects a menu and their food will be ready in 5 minutes. However, the box can only cook 10 dishes per day, children should not use it alone, and pregnant women should avoid it due to microwave emissions. The taste may not always match the user's preferences as well.
Imaginary Invention: Cinema Glasses
Cinema glasses are glasses that allow the user to watch movies on a 4K screen through a built-in display, powered by an internal lithium-ion battery. The glasses connect to a mobile app via WiFi and Bluetooth to access over a thousand movie titles. They provide a private cinema experience without needing to go to an actual theater. The glasses are easy to use - simply wear them, select a movie on the app, and watch. However, they require a mobile device to power the movie and have limited battery life of up to 5 hours.
Imaginary Invention - Voice Recorder
This document describes an invention that can record audio lessons and convert them to text or Braille code using a microchip. The device has a voice recorder, paper, file converter, speaker, and printer. It allows users to learn lessons by listening again and translates audio to 10 languages or Braille. However, it is expensive, not easy to carry due to its small microchip, which could get lost.
Imaginary Invention: Ultra perfect skin
The document discusses global warming and a new skin product called Ultra-Perfect Skin (UPS). Global warming occurs when greenhouse gases trap heat in the atmosphere, increasing temperatures and causing some organisms to die. The new product UPS uses cells grown in specific substances to form skin that has special qualities making it anti-UV and resistant to radiation and high temperatures. It is produced through biotechnology processes and guarantees strong, protected skin for 8-10 years with use of a special cream.
Imaginary Invention- MYJI Pen
The electric pen allows users to save time, stay on schedule, and simplify their lives. It scans or receives typed text wirelessly and then prints the text onto special paper with a single focus of the pen. The pen requires a long charge time and only works with one handwriting style on the special paper. It also cannot be used by high school students.
