Even though we know that the conclusion and evaluation for the project must be written down in the third trimester, we would like to elaborate a list with a series of things we could have done during the second trimestre to have completed it better. All the points which have been successfully completed during this term have already been dealt with in previous entries.
And so, lets begin with the list of improvements:
Firstly, we would have to point out that the principle problem is that we didn't plan the project correctly, the view on the project we choose wasn't really thought out well. Our project was quite too basic for the type of conclusion and data that were expected from a more complex project, which would take us to say that if we had to redo the project we would centre the project around something that could be able to give more specific data.
Secondly, at the moment of elaborating the project, it is clear to see we lacked organization skill that would have made the project come together much more smoothly, this problem is due to seeing how after a few weeks we realized that we had sort of started to create a biosphere instead of the initial water cycle project. Also, our intention was to incorporate life to the biosphere by adding insects and and other life forms to see if they could survive and prove that we had successfully created a biosphere. But since we didn't count on that the project would be done in winter, we weren't very able to find said insects. En consecuencia no pudimos incorporar vida a nuestra biosfera, que era una fase muy importante de nuestro experimento.
Lastly, we would like to point out general thing we should have changed or fixed; we should have started thinking in what type of project to do, and in our case, because of lack of imagination and because of the few information we could find on the internet as an investigation, we should have asked for more help at the beginning of the project
Once we had fixed there aspects, we should have taken into account the conditions in which we would develop the project, both environmentally as well as the problems with the finding of the insects.
In conclusion, the only thing left to say is that it was completely our fault that the project failed since we weren't able to incorporate the insects. However we have tried very hard to keep the project going in the end, focusing on the errors that we made and how to improve them. But still, we shouldn't ignore the aspects of the project we weren't able to complete.
